Celebrate Good Beer Week with KAIJU

In just eight years, Good Beer Week has grown from an innocent pot to boisterous pint-sized, transforming into a global festival that celebrates the beauty of beer through more than 300 diverse and innovative events across Melbourne and Victoria. Running from May 11-20, the awe-inspiring, dedicated week aims to encourage more people into the good beer world, and we couldn’t think of a more worthy way to spend a week dedicated to our favourite type of brew, than with some events by a long-time Forté favourite, KAIJU!
Here are a few thirst-quenching events any beer fanatic should get around.
KAIJU’S ULTIMATE MARIO KART CHALLENGE
Ready for the good times? Well, it’s KAIJU! versus you, with the ultimate Mario Kart challenge. Not only do you get the chance to take on KAIJU! brewers and LOOP bar staff for your chance at GLORY in a Mario Kart round robin, but you also get treated to a free KAIJU! brew on arrival. You’ll also be privvy to half price beer during our Mario Kart Challenge, and a free knock-off BBQ on the rooftop as the sun sets over Melbourne.

BAD LOVE’S BREWERY BAKE OFF!
The good times continue with the bake off! Here, KAIJU! and Nomad (brewery) go head to head in a bake off the likes of Good Beer Week have never seen before!
