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

An easy malty lager – lots of body and flavour to make it very 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.

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.

Designed by Emily and Daryle to be a full-flavoured Hazy XPA but only mid-strength alcohol.  We conducted a rub-&-sniff test with different ratios of Eclipse and Simcoe hops to get public opinion on the ratio mix, and then made use of the new Gladfield malt – “Big O” Oats.  The result is a very nicely balanced XPA – lots of flavour, aroma and good body.  Silver Medal Royal Qld Beer Awards 2022 & 2023

While Daryle was creating a sensible midstrength, Craig has gone crazy and created a Big Bad IPA chocked full of hops – the usual suspects, Galaxy, Mosaic and Citra. It is a big IPA full of hop flavour and just enough crystal malt to balance the bitterness.  Originally named Bug Killer (mid COVID) and changed to Corruption after the Brewer had “sampled” direct from the unitank on more than 2 occasions and needed to be driven home…..

A new take on an old recipe – this is the first time Craig has been excited about Ginger Beer for years.   It is still made from gluten free ingredients, although it is made on equipment subjected to gluten, including Sorghum malt and he has significantly upped the dose of fresh ginger, sourced and grown locally.   Try it with a piece of locally-grown lime to cut through any sweetness

Inspired by a brew brought in from local homebrewer, Wayne Gilmour, we got Wayne and mate Phil in for a brew day. It meant milling a big grain bill with some super specialty malts. From brew we split the wort across two vessels – one with added lactose and custard pie flavouring (desert in a glass) and the other we let the malts shine through. The result is two very different beers.  This one is the straight untreated wort
