Anyway, here are the details, cost and location:

The inaugural International Beer Festival is being held down at Bungalow 8, Kings Street Wharf on the June long weekend (9-11 June 2006). We are expecting more than 3,000 people to visit Bungalow 8 over the three day period in order to taste international beers and to enjoy the festival atmosphere.

Entry to the festival is free of charge, however attendees will need to purchase a tasting cup ($5.00) and tasting tickets ($1.00 each). The tasting tickets will be sold in blocks of 10 for $10.00. The tasting tickets will be redeemed for a 60ml glass of any exhibited beer.

<_< Hey, at least it's cheaper than any other festival I've been to in the last 12 months.
 
BOOOO-HISSSSSS DRINK LOCAL BEER!

Ohh well, if folks want to pay too much for stale beer...

how much you get depends on who serves you usually.
and often the promo people dont mind being generous ;)
 
Surely you would have some Duvel LittleSquares....?
and ya gotta have some Staropramen too...

Actually when you do the math... it could be quite good...!
60ml @ $1 ..... so $10 for 600ml of Duvel at a club/pub type affair isnt too bad (its $9.5 for 330ml at Heritage)
Might just take my own Duvel glass.
 
i got both sam....(i've got quite a few of those glasses on the list)
but unfortunatey i'll be in Orange the long weekend.

60ml is weak

i think you'l find this is fairly standard for a "tasting" festival
 
Yeah, you just drink more of them. End result = same.
 
Its more fun to ask the people behind the bar about the beer they're serving and listen to the "marketing speak" that sprouts forth from there on in...cause they really have no idea most times...and its excellent "WOW" factor if you strike one who does know
