The High Country Hop 2022

MUSIC TO YOUR BEERS!

Join Bridge Road Brewers in beautiful Beechworth as we celebrate the Victorian hop harvest at The High Country Hop, Australia's favourite destination beer + music festival. 

Returning after its maiden voyage in 2021, on Beechworth's Historic Precinct Reserve, you'll taste the freshest beers of the year, discover local winemakers, distillers and revel in an inspired musical lineup.

The festival centres around the brewers of the Victorian high country, with a spotlight on a series of unique ales made using fresh, locally-sourced hops from the 2022 harvest. They'll be joined by some stars of the craft beer game - Garage Project, Mountain Culture, Sailors Grave, Dollar Bill & Love Shack.

What's a great drink without equally great music? We're thrilled to host an exceptional selection of artists in 2022, starring Emma Donovan & The Putbacks, The Lazy Eyes and 2021 alumni, Ausecuma Beats.

A festival food experience should never be grim, so, we're bringing in the heavy hitters - Hand-picking a selection of wholesome eats for all tastes.

Whether you're looking for a weekender, a day trip or a chance to explore your backyard, The High Country Hop will provide you with a journey to remember.
