Take a classic English Porter recipe, add some lactose for residual sweetness and creamy mouthfeel, and Chai spice powder from Sunshine Coast Roastery, and you have a beer version of a Chai Latte.  This came about after enjoying a dirty chai coffee from Jaz at Shark Bait Coffee – next thing we were mixing chai powder with the oatmeal stout and the idea of a new recipe was born

Our Malt supplier developed a new Maize Malt, and what do you do with Maize malt ……. Build a nice easy drinking Mexican Lager to beat the summer heat! This does just that, so much so, that we repeat it each summer!  Bronze medal winner – Royal Qld Food & Wine Show Beer Awards 2022

A small batch featuring all kiwi hops – Pacifica and motueka and brewed with Lallemand’s new lager yeast – Novalager. The result is a light lemon aspen character with enough bitterness to make it sessionable

A small batch to test run a new liquid hops product called Spectrum.  Using Enigma hops from Tasmania paired with liquid Citra hop concentrate in the dry hop stage. The result is a dry fruity forward IPA with the bitterness you would expect from this style

Originally brewed on our new pilot kit as a limited release brew. It  has now become one of our core range, featuring Eclipse, El Dorado and Mosaic hops finished on Verdent yeast to give a delicious juicy throwback.

The saying goes when the world gives you lemons make lemonade – well that is what happened here. Epic Mowing gave us kilos of spray-free mandarins, so what better way to say thank you than make a beer or two with them. This one we added pulp in the mash and then peel into the kettle. Finish it with a Belgian Wit yeast and you have a classic European Wheat beer with a Mandarin twist

A small batch featuring 100% Pacifica Hops from New Zealand and brewed with Lallemand’s new lager yeast – Novalager.  The result is a light lemon aspen character with enough bitterness to make it sessionable

OK, It’s official the brewer has gone crazy!  No bittering hops and a 3-hour whirlpool???  and  then that crazy Norwegian Kveik (Quick) yeast and loads MORE HOPS.  The result is an incredibly juicy, hazy NEIPA, full of flavour and taste ….  well it tastes like full crushed pineapple juice.

A single hop pale ale featuring Citra hops from USA Bronze medal winner – Royal Qld Beer Awards 2023

An easy drinking Lager-like Summer Ale featuring Enigma hops from Tasmania.

This beer is inspired by a can of Capitán Nelson Hazy IPA from Strange Brewing in Argentina. Sergio and Flor brought a can back from their home country, for us to try, and WOW – what a delicious beer!  Ours doesn’t match it yet, but we are getting close….. it is delicious, hazy and juicy, full of Nelson Sauvin, Simcoe, Mosaic and Citra hops in the dry hopping regime on Verdant yeast

This beer is the sister to Salute to Capitán Nelson Hazy.  We split the wort across two ferment vessels, using New England yeast and a different dry hop format in thsi one. The hops are Nelson Sauvin and Motueka, and it is surprisingly different.
