Damn. I did firetrucks today.

Picnic @ Lilydale would have been bloody awesome.

Was this any good ? I was so close too...in Chirnside Park, but at a birthday party.

Might have to remember for next year...

Smallish - maybe about half a dozen breweries plus a few wineries.

Weather was perfect for it.

No crowd to speak of - so unlike bigger festivals no queuing for drinks.

There wasn't any real stand out beers for me. A few fruity concoctions Matso's Mango beer and something called Kwencher Peach and black tea beer (neither did anything for me - the peach one tasted like they mixed a tin of IXL canned peaches with the beer)

If I had to pick a favourite - it would be the Cavalier Pale Ale.
