Now into its second year, the Great Australian Beer Festival Albury has quickly established itself as a leading celebration of beer and cider throughout the region.
Free masterclasses will run throughout the day.
There’s a heap of skill, passion and creativity that goes into each brew and we will be celebrating with the many brewers attending who are happy to meet and mingle

Visitors can chat about mouth feel with friends or possibly even with the very person who brewed it.
There will also be live brewing, with Cheeky Peak’s impressive pilot brewery running demos throughout the day.
