Cheers to May the fourth ‘beer’ with you
MAY the fourth “beer” with you sparks the return of the 5th Cairns Craft Beer Festival where a lineup of especially crafted Star Wars-themed beers will make for a frothy good time tomorrow.
From noon until late this Saturday, May 4, beer lovers will get their lager fill at Hemingway’s Brewery with the fifth iteration of the Craft Beer Festival, live entertainment, best Star Wars costume competitions, delicious pub bites and food stalls, and an array of especially crafted beers by the best breweries of the Far North.
Six of north Queensland’s most prominent breweries including, Maggie Island Brewery, Macalister Brewing Co, Coral Sea Brewing, Copperlode Brewing, Billycart Brewing and festival host Hemingway’s Brewery will also battle it out with their refreshing Star Wars-themed ales for the first-ever People’s Choice Award, with the winner taking a mini keg trophy.
“We’re very excited for our annual Craft Beer Festival, we have a theme this year with our date May 4, which is Star Wars Day so this year – May the fourth beer with you,” Hemingway’s head of hospitality Roman Haslinger said.
“Everybody is bringing some special beers with a Star Wars theme, so they have really cool names, aside of that it’s what people know from us, fun for everyone from 12pm to 10pm, live music by The Nightshift, The Joker Pokers and Big Pups, with good food, good drinks and good company.”
