It’s time for Aussie home brewers to start getting their hops up and their tanks fillled as the annual Frenchies’ Brewers Got Talent competition grows ever closer.
The 24th of Feb event will place 12 budding brewers head to head to showcase their creations to an experienced panel. The stakes? Whoever comes out on top will walk home with a beer brand launch program, mentoring, and more. Past editions of the event have already helped propel numerous breweries onto the domestic market, including the likes of Cooks River Brewing Co., Nine Fingers Brew, Seeker Brewing and Wooden Axe Brewing Co..
“We’re passionate about championing the local, independent beer industry, and Brewer’s Got Talent is the perfect way to provide emerging brewers with a platform to get their beers in front of industry pros and beer fans, and learn, grow and develop along the way,” said Vincent De Soyres, Frenchies Co-Founder and Brewery Director.
The day-long event is well worth the trip for any Sydney craft-beer enthusiast, who can expect a menu of good brews, food, and times. Attendees will also be asked to vote for the People’s Choice Winner, the winner of which will receive a half price brew deal at Frenchies.
“We’ve built on the format for 2024 too, so there’ll be top notch food, some special brews, opportunities to get a behind-the-scenes look at our breweries and brewing process, and more,” added Vincent.
Part of the update includes having beers of previous winners available for purchase from an onsite mobile bar. This will include brews from Beer Club Brewing, Wooden Axe Brewing Co., and gypsy brewer Prickly Pete and The Wolf.
In response to high demand, a second extended ticket option will also be on offer this year, featuring a lunch and brewery tour starting at 12pm. Following this will be the usual 3-6pm sampling session. As with previous years, a tasting only ticket is also available for purchase.
