ALESTARS AT THE LOCAL TAPHOUSE
We’ve long been admirers of the taphouse & having dealt with the guys on many occasions know that they are extremely passionate about local craft beer. Next Tuesday will promise to be one of the most anticipated (not just by me!) Alestars sessions ever! Arguably one of the country’s best craft brewers, Brendan Varis of Feral Brewing in WA is heading to the tap house with 3 crazy beers, brewed specifically for this event. We won’t say too much more other than you MUST be there!

SLOWBEER2GO IS A GO...WELL ALMOST
So we may have jumped the gun a bit in announcing our growler concept a couple of months ago, however after a slight delay we will soon be ready to go! Our slowbeer branded growlers have just been ordered from the states & will be on the water in a matter of days. Expect the beer to be flowing & growlers filling in about 1 months time!

AMONGST THE VINES – A BEER & FOOD JOURNEY OF BELGIUM 2010
Two of Slowbeer’s favorite friends, Ben Hayes (Amongst the vines travel) & Ben Kraus (Bridge Rd Brewers Beechworth) will be leading a beer odyssey of epic proportions that is not to be missed! For info: http://www.bridgeroadbrewers.com.au/news.html
