The monthly Ale Stars evening at The Local Taphouse is one of Australia's most beloved regular beer events. Attracting a mixture of beer lovers, both old and new, it's a fun and interesting way to learn about everyone's favourite beverage.
Based on a different theme every month - usually a brewery, country or beer style - the event takes you on a happy, hoppy jaunt around the beer world, complete with food, quizzes and plenty of good banter.
Leading the way, you'll almost always have a brewer on hand to entertain with stories, expertise, insight and - most importantly - to tell you about the beer you're drinking.
For April, it's something of a birthday party as beloved Victorian brewer Red Hill turns 10. Brewer and owner Dave Golding will be along to talk about their journey from ditching city living to starting a brewery on the Mornington Peninsula with its own hop farm, through to the current day where they're about to release Batch One Thousand.
Tickets are $40 and include four of Red Hill's lovely beers, as well as food. You can book yours here.
