ExBEERimental Science 2026: The Brewers Gauntlet
Description
Join us at Shambles Brewery on Friday 21 August, 7:00–9:00 pm, as four of Tasmania's finest breweries go head-to-head in ExBEERimental Science 2026: The Brewer's Gauntlet.
This National Science Week we've challenged Welcome Swallow Brewery, Du Cane Brewing, Communion Brewing Co. and Spotty Dog Brewers to take one aspect of beer sensory science and push it to the absolute limit.
Whether it's an intense flavour explosion, an unforgettable mouthfeel, or a visually striking brew, these beers are guaranteed to challenge your expectations.
Taste each experimental beer alongside the brewers themselves as we explore the science behind their creations. Hear how they developed their ideas, overcame brewing challenges, and stretched the boundaries of what's possible in beer.
Your ticket includes:
🍻 Tastings of all four experimental beers
👕 Access to limited-edition event merchandise (available to pre-order with your ticket or purchase on the night)
🎤 A unique opportunity to meet the brewers and discover the science behind every sip
Science. Beer. Curiosity. Community. What more could you want?
Please note: This year's event will not be live-streamed or recorded, so this is an in-person experience only.
🎟️ Tickets are limited, so book early to avoid missing out!
A huge thank you to our incredible sponsors Hop Products Australia, Voyager Craft Malt, and National Science Week for helping make this event possible. 🍻
