The craft beer scene's biggest festival of the year became an inadvertent staging point for the many intersecting issues facing the industry. Brewers tried to put on a brave face but admitted 'vibes were down.'

At the recent Great Australian Beer Spectacular in Melbourne, a sort of adult playpen for beer enthusiasts, there were a series of accidental but unfortunate metaphors on show.

"We were told that our calls for help were being heard, we were granted the opportunity to inform many Members of Parliament about the challenges in the Australian beer market and provided them easy to implement and cost-effective solutions," said the CEO of the Independent Brewers Association, Kylie Lethbridge, in a budget response.Japanese brewers Asahi and Kirin, who own Carlton & United Breweries and Lion respectively, continue to loom large over the local craft scene.

The Independent Brewers Association was forced to cancel this year's Good Beer Week, a staple on the craft beer calendar, warning "the Australian independent beer industry is at risk"GABS is kind of that one thing we've got clinging to at the minute and we need to hold on to those things that help us celebrate the industry."There are still over 600 independent breweries in Australia.

"Things are a bit tougher at the moment and there will be some more casualties, but it's not all dire," said the brewery's co-founder Sam Hambour. Everyone smells blood in the water around the government.
