Hibernation - Baltic Porter - Bracket Brewing Collab
Hibernation was brewed in collaboration with our friends at Bracket Brewing during their winter ‘hibernation’ while they were moving their brewery from one location to another. Baltic Porter is a style that we have a shared love for, combining big complex dark malt and chocolate flavours with the smoothness of a cold fermentation with lager yeast. Perfect for warming you up during your winter hibernation on the couch!

Born Too Late - Pale Weizenbock
Weizenbocks are a style of strong German wheat beer that can vary in colour from golden to dark brown depending on the malts used. For our first Weizenbock, we went with a pale version. You can imagine it as a supercharged version of our Hefeweizen. Born Too Late was inspired by the pale Weizenbock brewed by the oldest continually operating brewery in the world and arguably the finest wheat beer producer. It has the banana and clove notes from the yeast, supported by malt sweetness. Hazy in appearance and pouring with a delicious creamy head of foam.
Released August 2024
Pass the Bock - Dunkles Bock
Bocks are a strong lager style originally from the German city of Einbeck. This dark (dunkles) version showcases the rich malty flavours of German Munich malt. We fermented Pass the Bock using a lager yeast strain from a famous bock producing brewery in the foothills of the Alps of southern Bavaria. This lager strain emphasises malt flavours producing a medium to full bodied beer with a smooth and clean finish.
Released July 2024
Black as Night - Belgian Stout
Black as Night is a rich and full bodied stout with a unique Belgian twist. The distinctive Special B malt from Belgium gives rise to complex caramel and raisin flavours. Combined with an expressive Belgian Abbey yeast, Black as Night finishes with some spicy and fruity notes.
Released July 2024
Little One - Table Beer
Table beers are light bodied, low alcohol beers that were popular in medieval Belgium and France. They were designed as a casual beer that could be enjoyed by the masses at mealtimes. Little One includes a large percentage of wheat and oats to provide additional body. It is fermented with a mixed culture of Belgian Abbey and Brettanomyces Claussenii yeast to provide complex fruit and spice notes.
Released July 2024
Whiter Shade of Ale - Belgian Witbier
Witbier, meaning ‘white beer’ in Flemish, is a medieval style of beer from Belgium that was revived in the 1960’s. This pale, hazy wheat beer is brewed with coriander and orange peel. Whiter Shade of Ale has a full bodied mouthfeel from the large amount of wheat and oats used. Yet still highly refreshing with its high carbonation, a dry finish, and low bitterness.
Released June 2024
Shadow Puppet - West Coast Pilsner 5%
Shadow Puppet is our first West Coast Pilsner, a style that combines the clean malt and yeast profile of a pilsner with the big hopping of a West Coast IPA. We used freshly harvested 2024 Australian Eclipse hops, including a generous dry hop. Giving the beer strong mandarin and citrus notes, with a touch of pine.
Released June 2024
To Put It Mildly - Dark Mild
Until the 1960s, milds were the most popular beer style in England. To Put It Mildly is a dark mild, a malty beer with a wide range of flavours including caramel, toffee, chocolate and dark fruits. Hops are mostly added to provide supporting bitterness with the focus on the malt and to a lesser extent the yeast derived fruity esters. A well balanced beer that is super drinkable and full of flavour for its low strength.

Keep It Real - English Bitter
Bitters were the dominant beer style in English pubs from the 1960s to the 1990s, until it was surpassed by light lagers. Amber coloured and surprisingly full of flavour given their low alcohol content, they are arguably the ultimate session beer. Keep it Real is our modern interpretation of a traditional Bitter, brewed with all English malt and hops.

Papaya Don’t Preach - Barrel Aged Golden Sour with Papaya
Papaya Don’t Preach is a blend of four of our golden sour barrels that had been aged for 11 months. We then added the sweet red flesh of 350 Queensland papayas and aged the beer further. The tropical fruit flavours from the papaya complements the acidity and light funk of the base beer.
Released May 2024
Outback Sky - Barrel Aged Red Sour
Flemish Red Ales are often referred to as the Burgundy of Belgium due to their deep reddish-brown hue and wine-like characteristics. Outback Sky is our interpretation of a Flemish Red Ale. Composed of a blend of 9 month old and 24 month old barrels. Complex flavours of rich malts, sourness, dark fruits and oak.

Definitely Maybe - Maibock
Named after the month of May, Maibocks are a strong malty German lager traditionally brewed for the transition from cooler to warmer weather. We think it's equally suited to the transition from warmer to cooler weather here in the Southern hemisphere. While having substantial strength and body, in line with the bock style, it is a light amber colour compared to the darker Winter bocks.

Melody - Vienna Lager
Melody is a Vienna Lager, reddish-copper in colour, smooth and malty, with some toffee and bready flavours. It’s brewed with a restrained hop usage giving just enough bitterness to provide a balanced finish. First introduced in Vienna in the 1840s, it is now a style that is rare in Austria, but has been embraced by several large Mexican breweries as well as craft breweries around the world.

Pivotal - Czech Pale Lager
The Czech Republic has the highest beer (pivo) consumption in the world, with over 140L consumed annually per capita. That’s almost double that of Australia. And you thought Australians liked their beer! You could say that pivo is pivotal to the Czech lifestyle… Pivotal stays true to the 10º Plato lagers preferred in the Czech Republic. It showcases Czech pilsner malt produced using a traditional floor malting process, spicy Saaz hops and a classic Czech lager strain.
