If that’s not enough for you, tell the guys at The Taphouse what you want to see at the Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular at the Royal Exhibition Building next May, tell them.

Taphouse founder Steve Jeffares said the Aussie SpecTAPular aims to grow into one of the great annual Australian beer festivals, “ so don’t limit yourself, just as we aren’t!”

If your idea is an idea they haven’t already considered and they implement it, we’ll give you a complimentary ticket to the festival.
