Sheepoll’s Opinion Trivia is the only trivia night in the world with no facts.

“WHAAAT?!”, I hear you say. “No facts?”

Yep. It’s the fake news of trivia nights, where winning is a matter of opinion, and you get to find out how average you actually are. Are you a unique Black Sheep or a run-of-the-mill White Sheep? We’ll find out together in a hilarious 2-hour interactive experience that is part-gameshow, part-improv comedy and part-a-whole-lotta-fun.

Normal trivia so boring! There’s way too much of:
What’s the capital of Vanuatu? (errrrm)
What’s Whoopi Goldberg’s real name? (jeez um)

Smørrebrød is a culinary tradition some 150 years old, of open-faced sandwich on rye bread.

For one night only, SBC will be offering a set three course ØL & BRØD inspired dinner matched to your choice of exclusive Mikkeller brews. Just like at your favourite Danish Granma’s house.

Tickets are $100 (plus fees) and includes three course dinner, limited edition Mikkeller & Friends beer glass (to take home), your choice of four Mikkeller tap beers. Tickets are limited and need to be pre-purchased from Eventbrite.

BARREL-AGED BEER TAKEOVER | LOW & SLOW BBQ | FATHOM

Fathom was created so that we could explore the complexities of mixed fermentation and barrel-aged beer. We’re on a quest to uncover the hidden treasures and delights of oak maturation.

Join us at the brewpub on Saturday 23 March as we officially launch Fathom and release the first 3 beers from the collection alongside a very special selection from our in-house cellar program.

Grab a free passport on arrival and learn about mixed fermentation, barrel ageing and what’s gone into the making of each beer you try, all served in specialty glassware.

Rees & Sons Barbecue & Hire will be onsite, serving up a selection of low and slow BBQ favourites from 12:00pm.

There is a lot of talk that the rise of craft beer has seen beer become too complicated and the array of styles can be a little daunting for those discovering the world of beer. The Beer Book Club is a chance to get together and discuss the great works of “libeerature” and learn a little bit more about beer styles, history, techniques, flavours and ingredients in a relaxed and casual format.

In the March edition, join us as we sample 6 different beers that highlight the best examples of the classic Pilsner style. Hailing from Pilsen, Czech Republic, and first brewed in 1842, the iconic Pilsner style has evolved into one of the most recognised beer style across the globe.

The legend is that it was the first pale lager because the maltster had been drinking, fell asleep and let the fire go out… is this true or a beer myth? Find out at the next Beer Book Club.

Ticket includes light dinner and samples of six excellent beers.

Next on our 90’s film line up is the super cool cult classic EMPIRE RECORDS for Burleigh Outdoor Cinema on Thursday 28th of March!

Starring a truly 90’s cast, Empire Records sees Anthony LaPaglia, Rory Cochrane, Robin Tunney, Johnny Whitworth, Debi Mazar, Maxwell Caufield, Liv Tyler and Renee Zellweger, as the gang band together to save their store from becoming a chain.

Join us on Thursday 28th March from 6:00pm – 10:00pm (feature film screening around 7:00pm).

Live music, food trucks and Murbah Swamp Beer are back at our Murwillumbah brewery for the third annual Murbah Open Day, in partnership with Tweed Palliative Support & Wedgetail Retreat.

Save the date now, folks – Saturday 30 March from 11.00am to 5.00pm.

On the back of two successful years, we’re opening our gates and welcoming the community back to the Murbah brewery for great food, live music, local artists, brewery tours, our kids area Malt Disney – and of course, ice-cold beers straight from the source.

Here, local families and beer-lovers can wander through our curated selection of market stalls featuring local artisans, artists and craftsmen, before jumping over to the food trucks. Gunter’s Flammkuchen and JuJus (Backyard Chef) & Zicatela – Woodfired Mexican – three of the region’s best – will be cooking up epic meals and snacks, while a coffee cart will wait next door for those craving a caffeine kick. Soda and water refill stations, plus ice-blocks for kids, will also be available.

Speaking of kids, our dedicated kids area, Malt Disney, will also be back with a jumping castle, crafts, entertainment and face painting – all for a gold coin donation.

And of course, back by popular demand and in homage to the legendary local tale, a fresh, exclusive Pilot Batch of Murbah Swamp Beer will be flowing on the day.

Haven’t heard about Murbah Swap Beer? Boy, what a tale.

One otherwise-normal Good Friday back in April 2001, a semi-trailer carrying 40,000 bottles of beer ran off the Pacific Highway and tumbled into the Tweed River. Soon after, to no one’s surprise, thousands of beer bottles escaped the trailer and began sinking to the bottom of the murky river. No sooner had locals heard about the incident had they made a break for the river, diving in courageously to ‘save’ the still-icy-cold beers. See the whole story in this short film here.

For the true frothers, we’ll have exclusive organic cotton Murbah Swamp Beer T-shirts for sale in the merch tent, with all profits from shirt sales donated to Wedgetail Retreat.

We’ll also be operating our cup exchange initiative #forcupssake again, which helps us eliminate single-use cups from our events. When purchasing the first beer of the day, punters simply pay an extra $3 deposit on a re-useable plastic cup that they can return when exiting for a $2 refund. Otherwise, these cups can be kept as a Murbah Open Day momento.

Murbah Swamp Beer will be tapped on the day, alongside other Stone & Wood brews pouring straight from the tank.

The best part is that, for the third year running, all profits from Murbah Open Day will go to our partners, the Wedgetail Retreat. With the help of last year’s attendees, we raised $30,000 for the vital palliative care service and hope to make the same achievement this year!

Stay tuned for following announcements on market stalls, the site map, bus timetables and the music line-up.

We are so excited this is now an annual event. Due to St George’s Day (23rd) falling on the Tuesday after Easter, we are holding the Beerfest on the following Saturday, namely Saturday 27th April.

20 taps – All tap beers, one low price – FREE ENTRY.
Full Ploughmans Lunch + Pizza & Rib Kitchen open all day.
Ballandean Estate Wines for those not into beer.

Our Brewmaster Ross Kenrick on his trip to the UK in 2015, was invited for a personal tour of Southern England’s most famous brewery Harvey and Son ltd by their Head Brewer & joint managing director Miles Jenner. After a wonderful day touring this 200+ year old brewery & sampling many of their award winning ales, Ross cheekily enquired if there was a possibility of them sharing their Best Bitter recipe for him to brew something similar in Australia. Miles said he was probably happy to share the recipe, but since it contained several propriety ingredients, not least their 200+ year old house yeast strain (that gives the beer it’s unique flavour profile), it wouldn’t be of much use if Bacchus Brewing Co really wanted to recreate their beer. After some excited discussions, Miles said “leave it with me, I’ll see what we can do”.

On returning to Australia Ross kept in touch & finally got the news that exceeded his highest hopes… In a world first, not only did Harvey’s agree to share the recipe & a further 3 (including their World Beer Cup “World’s Best” Brown & Mild Ale recipes), they also agreed to airfreight all the propriety ingredients so Bacchus Brewing Co could recreate their beers here in Australia.

So on Saturday 27th April we will once again be pulling from our handpumps Harvey’s Sussex Ale alongside 2 other award winning Harvey’s ales, plus their World winning Brown Ale from our nitro tap To further celebrate all things English, we will also be pouring all our own favourite English creations from at least 11 of our other taps & putting on an authentic Ploughmans lunch to accompany them.

We can’t thank Harvey’s enough for entrusting us with this great honour, & we look forward to sharing the results with you all….

Hot on the heels of the success of the 2018 festival, we have once more teamed up with the incredible team at The Sun Bistro to bring our beer-friendly and family-friendly festival to Byron Bay!

This year we have more space to play with – which means more breweries, food trucks and entertainment to create an even better festival for 2019!
