Craft beer club Bottled Lighting Co will celebrate its first birthday on Monday October 19 as part of Sydney Craft Beer Week.

The BLCo celebrations will be held at the SCBW Ale Yard, presented by Time Out. Located in World Square, the Ale Yard is operating as the festival hub for the full nine days of Sydney Craft Beer Week this year, and will be hosting tap takeovers, tastings, and various other events.

The BLCo event will run from 6.30-9.30pm on October 19 and will feature beers from Young Henrys, Rocks, 4 Pines and Batch.

There will be a few exciting announcements on the night, including the draw of the next collaboration brewer, and all current Bottled Lightning Co members will be invited to enjoy complimentary tasting flights and snacks.

From Wednesday the Time Out Hop-Up returns to the Ale Yard, only this time it’s focusing on the beers coming out of Western Australia from breweries like Sail and Anchor, Feral, Matso’s, Nail and Colonial.

The WA Time Out Hop-Up runs from October 21 to 24, between noon and 10pm.
