So this brewery opened up just two weeks ago, literally a 5 minute bike ride away from my house so I had no excuse not to pop down and check it out, and so I did just that on the weekend.
At the front of the brewery is a simple bar made out of pallets where one can pull up a stool and try their beers, chat to the brewers (they're nice guys) and ogle the shiny SS brew porn in the other half of the shed. As well that you can buy / fill growlers and get longneck take aways.
They had two APA's (4.9% and 5.4%) and an Amber Ale (5.6%) on tap. $5 for a jar which was good value. I tried them all, and they were fantastic! I guessed around 40 - 45 IBU and beautifully balanced. From talking to the brewers it sounds like they're going for a niche market of making interesting craft beers that are not squared at the edge of the 'premium beers' as a lot of other micro's are doing these days. The next one they are planning is a wheat with spiced tea from with a local tea producer and a belgian wit yeast. I wish them all the best and am looking forward to seeing their beers appear on tap around Sydney.
Anyway, I would recommend dropping in and checking them out.
