Kozzie Beer Fest…A Gathering of Craft Beer Lovers

Posted on 22 Dec, 2017 in Festivals & Events

Summer is here and what better way to enjoy it than a day of tasting lots of awesome craft beer…

Thredbo is celebrating all things beer with the Kosciuszko Craft Beer Festival happening across the 9th – 10th February 2018. Hosted by internationally renowned Brewmaster Chuck Hahn, who has been a force in Australian, New Zealand and American brewing for over 40 years, the free two-day event will be a unique experience for everyone this summer

With his locally based Kosciuszko Brewing Company, Chuck will take festival-goers on a craft beer journey through masterclasses, presentations, blind tastings and information sessions at Australia’s premier alpine resort. Whether it’s learning how to become your own craft brewer, mastering the unique flavours of local beers, or enjoying live music and sampling, the festival is sure to entertain beer and food lovers alike.

“I am thrilled to be part of the inaugural Kosciuszko Craft Beer Festival at Thredbo, and am even brewing a specialty Thredbo batch especially for the event,” says Chuck. “Craft beer is born of a mindset; an idea between art and science executed by the dedicated skill of a brewer. As a nation we love the frothy amber ale, with over 200 craft breweries in Australia and double the number of craft beer volumes in the last five years, representing over 4% of the total market. We welcome everyone down to Thredbo to enjoy this festival next month.”

Alongside live entertainment, kids entertainment and like-minded beer lovers and a village full of things to do and see, the Kosciuszko Craft Beer Festival is the ideal weekend away for anyone. As Australia’s only true year-round alpine resort, Thredbo also has a huge variety of summer activities and summer events allowing visitors to fully enjoy and experience a unique summer alpine escape.
