When Erika mentioned about Beerfest Asia 2010, I had the impression that she was talking about Oktoberfest, the Munich Beer Festival brought into Singapore. And then I realised it was a another money making Beer Festival bringing in both exhibitors and beer lovers from around the region to sample up to 250 different beers! The 4 day festival was into its second year running and was packed with live stage performances, giant screen broadcast of 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa and outdoor bazaars. I couldn't resist the opportunity to check out rare finds in the malted barley catalog. I was even serious enough to download an iPhone app on beer with a hope to learn a thing or two.

The festival venue, Singapore Flyer was jam packed with folks from around the Shenton and Marina Bay office vicinity, many in their shirt and pants attire.

Currency of the venue - Chips! My ticket price of S$27 entitles 2 free beers redeemable at offering outlets

Two huge outdoor screens where erected on both wings of the venue for live soccer... best watched with beer! I was enjoying my sausage and wedges platter while checking out the different beers people are consuming.

This picture was taken moments before Germany hit a miss fire at a penalty shot against Serbia! Total embarrassment sending the crowd crazy!

And then it was time to check out the BEERS!

Wendy bought a bottle of Dead Frog's Nutty Flavored beer on the far left. Had a roasted nut taste which was refreshingly flavorful

The chips currency concept was fabulous. They take your money in exchange for chips totally useless outside of the festival. You lose 20% of your chips value if you make a cash refund. So either way, the organisers win. We had to 'da bao' (take home) beer at the end of the night!!! I got myself a bottle of Remus on the far left

Wendy couldn't resist getting a bottle of Satan's Gold while I had to try the award winning Pink Elephant - Deliruim Octurnum. Both Belgium brewed beer

Prices for beer were cheap ranging from below S$10 to S$20. I loved the variety offered. There were lots to sample and probably a good opportunity to pick up more beer to go (the next time round)!
