Willy Beer Fest - Williamstown, Melbourne; November 23rd 2013

No affiliation etc.

Haven't seen a lot about it yet but sounds great for the Western Suburbs having something of interest for us. 150 years is a good stint for an Aussie pub.

Looks like some good names on the list and hopefully more names to come...

Well hopefully this revives willys pub scene a little. In the 5 years I haved lived in the area, willy seems to have become a ghost town for pubs and restaurants

What?! They have the Titanic theatre restaurant!

Seriously though, I'll get to this.

Is there still a french creperie/cider joint in Williamstown?

 

[DU99]

Good range of brewery's

 

[doon]

Doesnt seem so manticle according to urban spoon its closed

 

[toolio666]

The creperie is gone... Not that many good restaurants around I think...

For me the beer & food places to go are the Steam Packet (no affiliation) which has good pub grub and beer, the Prince Albert (Bettenays) and the Junction Hotel (Newport).

Good craft beers and food at them all.

Anyway, as I said, it will be good to have a festival of interest to attend. Though the Tall Ships in Williamstown on election weekend will be pretty cool to see.

Just bought tickets for the early session on Saturday... Wife is expecting me to come home and help with the kids that night. We'll see how capable I am of that.

Hopefully the rain holds off.

Happy to catch up with anyone there.

Pissing down! Hopefully the rain clears by this arvo I was planning on riding down.

What do we know with regards to seats, shelter, and ability to buy "take aways" from the suppliers? Thinking about taking the camping chairs...
