WELCOME TO GABS 2023

It’s hard to believe that another year has passed! Welcome to the 12th edition of GABS Festival, it’s so good to have you back in Mellbourne, Sydney and Brisbane - thank you for being here! And a huge thank you to all of our amazing partners, brewers and exhibitors who help make GABS what it is – SPECTAPULAR!

As passionate advocates for the craft beer industry, we want to showcase to every Australian the diverse range of flavours, styles, breweries and wonderful consumers like you that make up our exciting craft community.

We pride ourselves on bringing people together for exceptional experiences which is exactly why this year, there truly is something for everyone at GABS!

We are thrilled to welcome back some international rockstars with California’s Sierra Nevada, the USA’s first billion dollar independent brewery and global sensation,

Cloudwater from Manchester in the UK. Both these breweries will be pouring GABS exclusives and a range of their famous core beers.

Although beer takes centre stage, GABS is an experience like none other! With debuts from Archie Rose, Monkey Shoulder Whisky and Yellow Tail Wines along with some seltzers, ciders and low / no alcohol options, the GABS experience ensures all palates are catered for.

Add to that the many wonderful brewery activations, entertainment, food and prizes on offer, the GABS experience is something we hope you will continue to share with good friends. After all, the more people that discover GABS for the first time and start their craft journey with a tasting paddle or take part in a fun brewery activation, the stronger our wonderful brewing industry becomes.

Cheers!

Served from the massive GABS container bars, the best way to experience these wonderful creations is to grab yourself a tasting paddle and order 5 different tasters at a time.
