2009 - A Twisted Success

Well, it’s over for another year and even if we do say so ourselves, the 2009 Bitter and Twisted International Boutique Beer
Festival proved to be a massive success!

Attracting around 4,000 people over the weekend, not even the heavens opening could dampen the spirits of beer lovers and

festival punters.

Highlights over the weekend were many but here’s just a few:

Mark’s Home Brew with a massive line-up all day, this stall gave local home brewers a chance to put their brews

up against theprofessionals (& they were great! So were told)

Hunter Beer Co’s Bacon Beer (interesting we hear you say, well it certainly gave us an idea for next year so keep your

eyes peeled for a Bitter & Twisted Beer Comp to be announced soon)

Afro Moses getting the crowd (& his band) jumping!

Clare Bowditch & Co, “running around the park”, check it out in YouTube …..

That’s a wrap for 2009 but keep checking back for updates and further details on the 2010 Festival which will be held

at the Maitland Gaol on the first weekend in November..

We hope to see you there! In the mean time here's some of the photos from this year.
