Award-winning local brewers RedDot BrewHouse, Brewlander, Sunbird Brewing Company and Lion Brewery Co are among the headlining brands of Singapore-made craft beers at Beerfest Asia 2023, taking place from 22 to 25 June on new festival grounds at the Kallang Outdoor Arena, the open carpark space outside Leisure Park Kallang.
With over 600 varieties of beer from around the world, the 13th edition of Beerfest Asia will feature the most extensive line-up of exhibitors ever at the event, with over 100 booths offering top-selling brews, fresh new flavours and a unique curation of gourmet food over four days for beer enthusiasts and festival-goers.
Highlights include top-rated Australian craft breweries Range, Mountain Culture, One Drop and Deeds, Vault City from Scotland, Sudden Death from Germany, Overtone, Tartarus and North Brewing from the United Kingdom, Jing A from Beijing and Young Master Ale from Hong Kong. Beerfest Asia also welcomes local breweries joining the festival for the first time, such as Rye and Pint, Ollie Hard Seltzer and Alive Brewing.
Attendees can expect a buzzing entertainment line-up with over 30 musical acts across four days. International tribute bands headlined by the festival include favourites Killer Queen Experience from Australia and local tribute bands The Unfortunate Sons (a tribute to Creedence Clearwater Revival ) and Peep Show (a tribute to Guns & Roses and Muse).
Also playing will be popular homegrown musicians, including 53A and Supersonic, party powerhouse Blackout Agency presenting stalwarts of the local underground electronic music scene Brendon P, Tony Tay and Kaye, as well as an all-female roster with DJ Sakura, DJ Red and DJ Nicole spinning hard-hitting EDM beats.
The much-anticipated BJCP-certified Asia Beer Awards will also return to the festival, celebrating the best-tasting brews across 13 categories.
The judging panel will comprise esteemed judges and brewers from Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand, led by Founder & Yeast Whisperer at Brewlander John Wei.
An event of Constellar, Beerfest Asia is returning physically for the first time after a three-year hiatus.
"As one of the hardest hit during the pandemic, the industry has been thirsting to reconnect with consumers directly at the vibrant festival atmosphere we've become known for. With an overwhelming number of returning and new exhibitors, we're excited to welcome everyone to our largest and most electrifying Beerfest Asia to date,” said Ian Lim, Event Director at Constellar.
