Celebrating the best Western Australia has to offer. 250+ beers & ciders on tap, gourmet food, comedy tent, family entertainment, live music & more.
Entering the gates we were handed a tasting glass and event guide each, I immediately hoped this would mean free tasters but alas they were $2 each. We took a stroll around before finding the already slightly piddled gang, we discussed a plan of attack wanting to make the most of the massive variety of booze on offer but after about 5 minutes shoved the plan and wondered from stall to stall.
Not beer, but I'm going to talk about how incredible Custard&Co's original cider is anyway... It's incredible, and if you're that way inclined they had a apple & mango on tap too.
Away from the alcohol Fremantle beer festival has live music all afternoon, a kids zone and masterclasses covering everything from beer oxidation to home brews.
At the back of the venue the live music stage made a perfect meeting place, and was luckily in shade for most of the day.
Fremantle comedy club put on two shows a day with a mix of home brewed comedy and international artists including Mike Goldstein (USA), Luke Heggie (AUS) and Rory Lowe (UK), who is pictured above.
Drinks flowed well in to the evening and the atmosphere was amazing- perhaps something to do with the glorious sunshine mixed with hours of drinking?
