Craft beer festival finds new home at Aravina

The South West Craft Beer Festival will return to the region for its 13th year in May, landing at Aravina Estate for the first time, to celebrate with local music, great food and of course, plenty of craft beer.

“This year we decided to give the festival a bit of a change-up,” Festival Director Jason Dover said.

“Moving dates and venues has given us the ideal opportunity to bring together two passions that embody adventure and craftsmanship – craft beer and surf culture.”

A selection of 150+ local beers will be on offer, alongside premium wines, ciders and a range of food offerings.

Returning brewers include Eagle Bay Brewing Co, Bush Shack Brewery, Cowaramup Brewing Company, and CBCo, while Ocean Beach Brewing and Bailey Brewing Dunsborough will join the festival lineup for the first time, where Aravina stablemates 8 Waves Brewing Co will act as host.

The day kicks off on Saturday May 17 from 10.30am. Family passes and individuals tickets at www.swbeerfest.com.au
