It’s warming up, and so is our calendar!
Across the country we’ve had tastes of Summer and this weekend was no exception. The Bay has well and truly thawed… Days where your thongs melt to the road, wax slides off surfboards towards the sand, shade from Pandanus palms provides temporary relief and ice creams or cold beer become necessities for survival.
We’re celebrating the return of the heat and all it brings throughout October at events with enough local beer to cure your thirst!
To start off we’re launching the Mash Collective’s Dead East Ale at the brewery this Saturday (10th October). Our crew is a bunch of local lads who all share a love for the sun, the salt and the sea… So its no wonder they’ve brewed a refreshing amber ale perfect to relax with by the ocean after a long day in the sun… To learn more about this year’s crew  (Asher Pacey, Paul McNeil & Jeff Bennet) and their beer head to the Mash Collective website.
Later in the month is Sydney Craft Beer Week (17th-25th October). There are over 100 events in nine days, so if you’re a Sydneysider that loves craft beer Christmas has come early…
We’re involved in a number of epic events as part of SCBW including: A special arvo party at The Oaks Hotel (Sunday 18th), followed by a night of ‘surf, turf and beer’ inspired by all time surf film ‘Big Wednesday’ with Three Blue Ducks in Bronte, phone 9389 0010 to book a table (Wednesday 21st) and finally a beer dinner at The Avenue on the same night, matching our four core beers with four beefy courses!
Up on the Sunny Coast is Noosa Surf Film Festival (October 23-24th,) there’s plenty of screenings, an Art Show, Shapers Panel and a chance to groove both nights at their After Parties…more info on the website.  This weekend also catch Bonnie at The End of the Line Festival in Woolloongabba!
It’s that time of year, where living the life and enjoying the simple things climbs to the top of our priority list…so get along for a good time!
