Beervana 2013 Beer Festival, Wellington, NZ

The Sprig and Fern Stand at Beervana 2013 served some regulars and new customers on Friday and Saturday.  The set of 11 medals were on display as Tasman Reserve Lager, Best Bitter, Dopplebock and Berry Cider were being poured to a very appreciative audience.

Here are a few photos of the beer festival event held at Westpac Stadium in Wellington.

Craft beer has universal appeal across ages and genders as can be seen by the mix of people who attend events like Marchfest, Beervana and the Great Kiwi Beer Festival.


Some choice music - here is Tyson Smith playing


Events like Beervana bring out the real beer fans who are keen to try all the beers and take the time to talk to the staff from the brewery who made the beer.
