After hosting breweries from across South Australia in recent years, in 2026 we're training our focus on those based in and around Adelaide.
While you're enjoying an SA beer be sure to grab the coffee stout BBQ sauce, fried chicken Sando with red slaw and Jalapeño pickles from Chicky Boi next door, normally $23, but show your passport during a festival and enjoy 10% off.
