Bluetongue beer will be the official supplier of the ‘Great Aussie BBQ’ at ‘Sydney’s Biggest Backyard’ celebrations at Hyde Park this Australia Day (January 26).
Fast becoming one of Sydney’s favourite ways to spend the national public holiday, the Great Aussie BBQ features entertainment, demonstrations, tastings and, of course, sausages.
This is Bluetongue’s second year at the Great Aussie BBQ and marketing manager Sarah Dennis said it was the perfect place for Bluetongue drinkers.
“Australia Day is all about embracing the spirit of Australian life – good food, good friends, good times – and a cold Bluetongue fits perfectly into that experience,” she said.
As the official supplier of Australia Day Celebrations NSW, Bluetongue will also be offering free samples at 250 venues nationwide, including a free BBQ onsite for all Bluetongue drinkers.
“It’s great for an iconic Australian brand to be involved with such a great Australian tradition,” said Dennis.
Bluetongue premium lager was recently awarded ‘Best Craft Beer’ at the 2008 Australian Liquor Industry Awards (ALIA).
