It's a truly gargantuan episode of the Coolroom featuring previews and reviews of a heap of great craft beer festivals all of which occur in places starting with B!
We kick things off with a final preview of Ballarat's Obsidian Dark Beer Festival with Tom Madden, before bringing things back to the city with Jacqui from Coconspirators whetting our appetites for Famiglia Affairs 4! Then it's Trevor from Bendigo Beer with the first scoop of what's going to be new at Bendigo on the Hop 2025!
All of that would normally be an episode just by itself but we've super-sized things for our Festival of Festivals episode and so we're off to Darker Days Festival for some live interviews with all the breweries who were part of that awesome weekend.
Evin Craney and Bright's Head Brewer help lead the conversation as we catch up with Matt from Boatrocker, Geoff from Seeker, James from Stomping Ground and finally Guy from Urbanaut.
A huge thank you to all of the breweries that invite us along to be part of festivities - there are some truly awesome people in the Victorian craft beer scene and we're so lucky to get to work with so many of them.
