It was all beers, cheers and good vibes at the 2023 Hinterland Craft Beer Festival last weekend.

Imperial Hotel and Eumundi Brewery manager Mike Brockley said he was thrilled with the turn-out, which included a line-up of 10 local breweries, a gin bar, food trucks and an afternoon of entertainment and live music.

“This was our fifth annual beer fest and the roll-up was our best yet,” Mr Brockley said.

“It was terrific to see beer lovers converge in Eumundi to sample and discover new craft beers and meet and share stories with the impressive line-up of brewers on the day.”

The festival showcased brewers and brews from Heads of Noosa Brewing Co, Copperhead Brewery, Boiling Pot Brewing Co, Moffat Beach Brewing Co, Sunshine Brewery, Your Mates Brewing Co, Noosa Hinterland Brewing Co, Matso’s Brewery, Terella Brewing and hosts Eumundi Brewery. The pop-up gin bar was serving up Eumundi Distillers’ Folktale gins.

The live music line-up included Bud Rokesky, Benny O and Kurilpa Reach, and Vinyl DJs played sets to keep festival-goers grooving throughout the afternoon. Roving performers and old-school pub games also kept guests laughing.
