We’re bringing together breweries, and those who have become good friends and family over the years, to explore and learn more about good beer, food and drinks while raising funds through our inGrained Foundation.

We will be running a series of master classes and forums with industry leaders throughout the day, diving deep and creating discussion around food and drink themes that will be hosted by Ale of a Time’s Luke Robertson.

• The World of Wilds and Sours
• Native Australia Flavours
• Cheese and Beer featuring Matt Kirkegaard and Paul Wilson from Nimbin Valley Cheese
• Lager Revolution

Oh, and of course, it wouldn’t be a Stone & Wood event without great live music and entertainment to get you grooving!

So, what’s different from any other beer festival? This event is about discovery and tasting a diverse range of delicious things. The $60 ticket includes a tasting glass, all your beers (free tastings size 150ml) from all the breweries and access to the forums and master classes, with profits going to inGrained Foundation.

Being our closest capital city and home of our new brewery opening in 2019, we call Brisbane our backyard, and couldn’t think of a better place to host this exciting event.

Come and celebrate our tenth year in the beer industry at our inaugural Backyard Invitational Festival on November 24th!

We hope to see you there. Cheers!
