FRESH HOP BEER FESTIVAL
Friday 14th - Saturday 15th April 2023
Derwent Valley, Tasmania
EAT, DRINK, and CELEBRATE Tasmania’s hop harvest with friends and Fresh Hop beers!
The annual Fresh Hop Beer Festival celebrates the annual Tasmanian hop harvest. The event is a much-anticipated opportunity for beer-lovers and craft brewers to come together, sample different fresh hopped first harvest beers from around the state (and from across the bass strait) and enjoy a weekend of live music, food trucks and fresh hop-related activities.
We’re doing things a little differently this year! Festivities will kick off on Friday 14th April and we’ll continue on Saturday 15th April.
