Foresters Beer & Barrel Festival

Foresters Beer & Barrel Fest is a Free festival that celebrates all things Barrel aged. We’ve hand picked some of the best barrel aged beers and spirits available and invited some of the country’s top breweries and distilleries to create a truly epic celebration of the ancient art of barrel ageing. Brewers and distillers will be on hand throughout the afternoon and evening to give insights and talk to you about their unique offerings. We'll also have a series of informal tastings and talks throughout the event for those that want to get more in depth about the processes but for everyone else the bar will be open serving up some of the best barrel aged creations we could find. Choose your favourite beer and whisky and head to our special boilermaker bar to create your own unique beer and whisky pairing then hang around when the party kicks up a gear later in the night with DJs spinning till the early hours. Guest Breweries: Feral Brewing Company, Boatrocker Brewers & Distillers, La Sirène Brewing, 3 Ravens Brewery, Moon Dog Craft Brewery, White Rabbit Brewery, Holgate Brewhouse Guest Distilleries: STARWARD (including New World Projects), Four Pillars Gin(featuring barrel aged Negronis), Timboon Railway Shed Distillery, Bakery Hill Distillery, Melbourne Moonshine Company and The Rum Diary Bar Experimental Kitchen
