The spotlight of the Melbourne beer world falls on Footscray this Saturday when Hop Nation opens the doors to its brand new brewery.
Launched by friends, winemakers and now brewers Sam Hambour and Duncan Gibson, the spiffing new brewery will be celebrating its official entry into the world by pouring a range of special release beers alongside the core range that has been floating around good beer stores for a wee while.
It's happening between 4pm and 10pm and entry is free, so head along, check it out, enjoy a beer or two and take some home too.
You'l find the brewery at 6/107-109 Whitehall St, Footscray.
