Foreword
Victoria is the home of brewing in Australia.
Each year, Victoria welcomes more than 5,000 guests to the annual Australian International Beer Awards and Autumn Beer Festival. The largest brewer in the country is located here and the State is home to a growing number of innovative microbrewers. Microbrewing is a thriving, niche industry leading the way in developing innovative, full flavoured, premium products which cater for the adventurous tastes of the discerning beer drinker. The new edition of the Beer Lovers Guide to Victorias Microbreweries provides an opportunity to focus on the rapid development of the brewing sector and to highlight Victorias leading role in developing new flavours and tastes. Over twenty breweries are featured, with travel directions to allow you to explore the range of boutique breweries in Victoria and learn about the art of brewing the perfect beer. Many also offer tours, tastings, accommodation and fine dining. The specialist microbrewers have mastered age-old methods using all natural ingredients and I join them in hoping you will enjoy their range of craft brews responsibly.

victorias microbrewery industry

Microbrewers have a passion for craft brewing, and wish to share their enthusiasm and their beer ~ with you. Victorias boutique breweries provide you with greater choice and a variety of fresh, full flavoured beers made locally by Victorian producers. There are currently more than 20 microbreweries in Victoria, with new ones opening regularly. Each microbrewer looks at their beer differently, and like wine, there is a real science to making beer ~ just one degree temperature difference here and there can make a big difference. Microbrewers are also keen to educate you on the range and flavour characteristics of beer ~ and how to match a fine brew with fine dining. For example, a rich, full flavoured beer will complement either a pasta or roast whereas a crisp, fresh lager will complement a light lunch. Spicy meals are best paired with an aromatic or pilsner style beer but also contrast nicely with a malt-heavy, creamy brew. The microbrewers of Victoria hope you find the information in the latest edition of the Beer LoversGuide to Victorias Microbreweries useful, and look forward to enjoying an ale with you in the near future.

Beechworth Brewery
Beechworth
In beautiful north-east Victoria you will find history alive and doing well. You will also discover gourmet foods, wines and beers.

An integral part of this quality offering is Beechworth Brewery which was first established in 1855 at the height of the Gold Rush. The original Beechworth Brewery (right) operated until 1873. Production then ceased and the brewerys pioneering spirit lay dormant for 130 years. In 2003 lifelong brewer Garry Wallace brought Beechworth Brewery back to life. He wanted to create some living history. Beechworth Brewery makes Real Beer. Real Beer is natural beer with no added chemicals, preservatives, colourings or heading agents. It is not filtered or pasteurised and uses local spring water, malted grains, hops and yeast. Real Beers are ALIVE and bottle conditioned. Expect to find a sediment gold miners certainly did! The range of hand-crafted, full-flavoured ales and lagers offer a delicious taste of history. Beechworth has a long and diverse history of brewing. Come and experience the delicious aromas, rich full flavours, smooth textures, and long aftertastes that are all characteristic of Real Beer. Inspections of the new brewery in the Nicholas Hotel are most welcome at any time. Tastings and sales are available at the hotel in normal opening hours, and through other quality licensed outlets. Come and have a few real beers, and then dont let the facts get in the way of a good story. Enjoy!

Bells Hotel and Brewery

South Melbourne
Bells Hotel and Brewery was established in 1984 and joyously celebrates a 22 year history of brewing.

Of course, the hotel itself dates back a little further than that ~ Bill Bell, the publican, was actually born within its walls! The brewery is built in the traditional style of copper and wood, and features the use of brickwork from the original Carlton and United Brewery (CUB) chimney. Bill and head brewer Paul Arthur encourage you to try before you buy with tasting trays available. A leisurely walk from Melbournes CBD, Bells Hotel and Brewery invites you to accompany your beer tasting with something from the menu. Tours of the showpiece brewery (a far cry from the old bath Bill made his first beer in!) are available by arrangement and offer a great opportunity to enhance your appreciation! Keep an eye out for the antique bottling machine. Bells Hotel and Brewery has developed an assortment of brews. Their infamous Black Ban Bitter is so named following the black-listing of the pub during the Albert Park protests. Bill has recently opened a wonderfully refurbished dining room which is attracting a vibrant lunchtime crowd come and see for yourself!

Bintara Brewery
Rutherglen
All Bintara beers are made in the traditional style from the region that the beers originated from. They are meant to be food beers.

They are more fruity than typical Australian beers and most imported (high volume brands). Because we get more of the grain fruit characters in our beers they are generally less hop driven and therefore not as bitter or harsh, this makes them great with food. The beers are not sweet in terms of residual sugar but are sweet because we get richness from the grain during the mashing process. We are a microbrewery and not a boutique brewery ~ i.e. our beers are well made, clean and consistent. Bintara Brewery is situated on Fraser Road, halfway between Wodonga and Rutherglen on the Murray Valley Highway. The brand new brewery and caf is an ideal place to enjoy tasting the beers of Bintara, discuss the natural hand-crafted brews and view the brewing process. The caf is open for breakfast and lunch from Friday to Monday with tapas and beer tasting platters available. Come and enjoy a sit down tasting or just visit to see how we craft our brews.

Boyntons Brewing Company

Porepunkah
Travel the Great Alpine Road and you will find fine food, craft-brews, wine, spectacular views and friendly locals at Boyntons, you have all of the above, in the one spot!

What do you do if you have a winery, a caf, a garden terrace ~ with sensational views of Mt. Buffalo and the Ovens Valley ~ and a huge number of visitors? Naturallyyou introduce BEER! Boyntons Winery, established by Kel Boynton in the late 80s, produces wines which are enjoyed both in Australia and overseas but Kel always had a burning passion to create a Boyntons Ale. So, in 2002 Kel and his wife Janelle decided that it would be a good time to embark on introducing a Porepunkah Ale and Pilsner ~ to be enjoyed as a cleansing drop at the end (or even the beginning) of wine tasting sessions. Whilst currently contracting out the brewing, Boyntons conduct cellar door sales of the packaged beer alongside their range of wines. You can also enjoy the brews with a meal at Boyntons Global Mezza caf, open from December to Easter. Every January as part of the Alpine food and Wine festival, Boyntons have hosted a specialist microbrewery festival. A great occasion to sit, enjoy the garden, listen to live music and, of course, taste several of Victorias finest craft-brews. Take the time to drop in, Kel can always be convinced to have a wee Ale at the end of a hard day in the Vineyard! Boyntons look forward to sharing a couple with you in the future!

Bridge Road Brewers

Beechworth
At Bridge Road Brewers you are assured of the complete microbrewery experience, this attractive timber-clad brewery, housed in an historic Coach House, boasts some of the best ales in the country.

Bridge Road Brewers found its origins in Innsbruck Austria. Brewer/owner Ben Kraus, originally from Beechworth, learnt his art in the Austrian Alps, where he met his partner Maria, who brings her Tyrolean flair to the brewery and its kitchen. Located in the historic Tanswells Coach House, in the heart of Beechworth, the brewery boasts a large tasting facility and dining area. Bridge Road Brewers produce a big range of ten ales, all of which are available for sampling from the brewery bar. The Austrian influenced kitchen produces the best pretzel this side of Munich, as well as a well matched lunch and pizza menu. In Summer the Brewery utilises its beer garden for moonlight cinema and live music events. Beechworth Oktoberfest is held at the brewery in the first week of October each year. The brewery is very interactive and enjoys the opportunity to provide visitors with an insight into how the beer is made, partake in a sample or two and sometimes be involved in the crafting process itself. Bridge Road Brewers aims to produce beers that are full bodied and true to style, using the highest quality ingredients we can lay our hands on, including living yeast strains sourced from some of the worlds most famous breweries. The infamous Ned Kelly features on the label. An icon of the north-east, having spent much time in Beechworth, he was tried in the Beechworth Courthouse and then held in the local prison.

Buckleys Beers
Healesville
The exploits of wild man William Buckley, who lived on the Bellarine Peninsula early in the 19th century, led to the well known Australian expression Buckleys Chance, meaning no chance at all.

So, in late 2001 when Buckleys Beers was conceived, it was considered by its founders to have Buckleys chance of really making it. A few years on and the Yarra Valley brewery is going from strength to strength. Making the most of older equipment and a 15 Hectolitre brewing length, Buckleys Beers creates an exciting range of awardwinning pilsners, ales and the dark, and serious, Buckleys Bitter. One philosophy behind the brews is, as the founders themselves say, Buckleys is not a beer for wimps! The distinctive bitterness and strength can be recognised across the range ~ the fullbodied, well-balanced, hoppy flavours will definitely hit the spot. Add to this the opportunity to observe and assist in the brewing process (most Saturdays by appointment), not only can you enjoy the brews but be involved in their very creation. Quite seriously, you have Buckleys chance of not enjoying a session at Buckleys Beers ~ poor old William himself would probably like to join you!

Buffalo Brewery
Boorhaman
Over 100 years ago, the very first bottle of Victorian Bitter Ale was produced by the Buffalo Beer Brewery ~ just a gunshot from Glenrowan and Kelly Gang country.

Buffalo Brewery began brewing in 1902 and is recognised as the oldest continuously operating brewery in Australia. Today, the Buffalo Brewery takes a very hands-on approach to its beer production ~ being the only brewery grinding their own wheat and barley, and utilising pure water from a spring on the property. Combine this holistic approach with spectacular, tranquil surrounds and a powerful history, and you have an experience you will reflect on for many a day. If you should get hungry while sampling the award winning beers, you might not be able to resist the mouth-watering, locally raised kingsize steak. The Boorhaman Hotel is large enough to cater for tourist coaches, car, motorbike and Probus clubs from Australia wide, and the dining room has an entry in the 2006 Foodies Guide to metro and rural Victoria. A large, fully enclosed lawned beer garden can cater for up to 300 people with a huge BBQ. Lily Arrabela Cherry, reputed lady-friend of one of the Kelly gang, graces the Buffalo Brewerys labels, and beckons you to discover more. The hoteliers are pleased to oblige with a comprehensive talk on their brewing techniques and an insight into the history of the area. The brewery itself gets a mention in the international tourist directory ~ Lonely Planet and was voted Best Country Pub in Victoria Without Gaming in 2001. Pure, fresh and 100% natural, with a no risk, no additives or preservatives guarantee, we are the only brewery that does it like it used to be done.

The James Squire Brewhouse introduces handcrafted ales brewed on site, adding to our bustling city vibe. Our menus are tailored to ensure that they match all of our beers, including the full James Squire family on tap. From the full-bodied Portland Pale Ale to the heady Craic Irish Stout, the Malt Shovel Brewers expertly craft fresh and flavoursome beers. You can be assured that your taste buds will get a fair work-out. Combine the traditional ale tastes, which have endured the test of time, with a full Australian style menu available at the Brewhouse, and you know you are in for a treat. You could ask one of the friendly staff to stand and deliver ~ a fine drop of the Highwayman should come your way, named for another of Mr. Squires personae.

Matilda Bay Brewing Company

Melbourne
Australias original craft brewer, Matilda Bay is probably best known for the multi award-winning Redback. Were all about flavour and love to push the boundaries of beer.

Back in the 80s, Matilda Bay, the first brewery to open since WWII, pioneered craft beer and created the first wheat beer in Australia, Redback Original, introducing drinkers to a whole new world of taste. Some 20 years later we continue to push the boundaries of beer and create brand new styles and give our own interpretation to some weird and wonderful beer styles. We brew classic styles such as Redback Original (Bavarian-style wheat beer), Bohemian Pilsner (Champion Lager AIBA 2005), and Rooftop (Vienna-style red lager) alongside the delicious Beez Neez, our own unique honey wheat beer. For true beer aficionados we produce our Brewers Reserve Range of Dogbolter Dark Lager and Alpha Pale Ale ~ now both available year round. At the Matilda Bay Garage Brewery we produce beers on a much smaller scale than at our main brewery in Fremantle and can really extend our creativity. Weve recently come up with Redback Cristal, Barking Duck and Crema. Our series of out there beers so far includes Barking Duck (which won third best in the world) and Crema, a world first, a pale unfiltered beer ~ brewed with premium organic Australian grown Arabica coffee beans. And to top it all off, weve also added to the Redback range with the launch of Redback Cristal to allow the next generation of drinkers to discover craft beer. Cheers! The Matilda Bay Garage is available for limited tours, arranged by appointment. Contact Brad Rogers, The Malt, Hops and Water Guy. Winemaker, brewer and coffee roaster, Brad loves creating new brews and educating people about all things beer.

Mildura Brewery
Mildura
Where the beautiful Murray River and the iconic Australian outback meet one another lies a town with a grand and colourful history ~ Mildura Brewery is at its heart.

Mildura Brewery is unlike anything youve ever seen before, and its beers are equally as memorable. Producing five naturally brewed beers, along with unique specialty brews, from inside the former Astor Theatre in Milduras restaurant precinct, the Mildura Brewery creates beers that are inspired by and named after local produce, landmarks and themes. The best selling beer is the Mallee Bull (5.6% ale), which is closely followed by the Desert Premium (4.5% lager), the Honey Wheat (4.5% wheat beer), and the Sun Light (3% light beer). Storm (4.5% cloudy ale) was a popular specialty beer and has become a new addition to the regular line up. The unique Mildura Brewery has held on to its former glory as the Astor Theatre with a grandiose refurbishment of the magnificent art deco building, but also includes a new, three vessel brew house and bottling line, that is on full display to guests drinking or enjoying a meal in the Brewery pub. Mildura Brewery, the brewery that took Mildura by storm!

Mountain Goat Brewery

Richmond
Well, a mountain goat is a big, hairy animal that never falls over ~ a good name for a brewery, we reckon!

Mountain Goat started out in Daves backyard in the mid 90s as a hobby that was verging on obsessive. Then buddy Cam came home from OS all inspired by the microbrewery movement and said Dave, lets turn Mountain Goat into a microbrewery ~ you brew it and I'll sell it. Seven years on, Dave and Cam have their own microbrewery operating in the back streets of Richmond and are hand-crafting four all natural, award winning ales. You can buy Mountain Goat on tap in around 30 inner Melbourne bars or in bottle throughout Victoria, NSW and South Australia. After a recent move across the road, the boys now open the brewery to public each Friday from 5pm to midnight with all their beers on tap. They also open Wednesday evenings from 5pm when you can see beer being brewed and earbash a brewer.

Red Duck
Camperdown
Located in the Western Districts fertile, lakes and craters region, Red Duck is passionate about brewing fine ales.

Our micro-brewery is just a quack and waddle from Lake Purrumbete. The crystal clear waters are stocked with salmon and trout, and are a favourite home for a variety of water birds, such as kingfishers, teals, musk ducks, grebes, cormorants, pelicans and occasionally, Australian Shelducks, with their distinctive red chests. The brewery is situated in a renovated old dairy ~ part of Purrumbete Homestead, a Heritage listed property. The first pioneers in the Western District chose to settle here in 1838, and we believe we have taken up some of that pioneering spirit. Our traditional styled ales are made from all natural ingredients, nothing artificial, nothing to get in the way of real flavours and aromas. We start with fresh rainwater, add malt, hops and yeast. Then we fret like a mother duck, until the beer turns out just right. Our beers are unfiltered, and naturally carbonated in the bottle, which means its real beer. The regulars are Pale, Amber and Porter, with limited release ales such as Golden Dragon ~ a strong Celtic ale, and The Ox ~ Imperial Stout.
