IBC hosts oldest brewery in the world

Spend an evening with some of the most brilliant minds in the craft beer industry and listen to the inspirational story of Weihenstephan at this year’s International Brewer Conference.

This exclusive gala dinner event with global brewing royalty returns to the beautiful Parkside Ballroom at ICC Sydney on Thursday May 30th 2024. An evening to remember with some of the brightest minds in the global craft beer industry, this is definitely an evening you should mark in your calendar!

At the first ever IBC dinner last year, Steve Grossman from California’s Sierra Nevada (USA) and Paul Jones from Manchester’s Cloudwater Brewing Co.(UK) gave exciting insights into two of the most successful breweries in the world. This year the opening keynote speaker will be none other than Marcus Englet, VP Sales Export at Bayerische Staatsbrauerei Weihenstephan –the world’s oldest brewery!

In what promises to be one of the most inspiring and motivational industry nights on the calendar,  Marcus will share the Weihenstephan journey – almost 1,000 years of history with numeroustrials and tribulations along the way! Weihenstephan’s timeless commitment to brewing excellence is reflected in its recent recognition at the 2023 World Beer Awards, picking up gold, silver and bronze medals. Marcus will share in-depth knowledge about Weihenstephan’s development and their close collaboration with the Technical University of Munich. Discover what plans these legends have in place for the future and where they see the next opportunities for the beer market.

You will not only be hearing the inspirational story of the world’s oldest brewery but also be sharing the room and rubbing shoulders with some of Australia’s most successful industry leaders, brewing royalty and government dignitries like the German Consul General Felix Schwarz.

Whether you’re an experienced brewer or budding cicerone, a lead in beer marketing,  industry supplier, retailer, hospitality provider, budding home brewery or craft beer enthusiast and wanting to expand your knowledge base and network with some of the most brilliant minds in the craft beer industry, then this event is for you.
