A fresh approach to brewing hand crafted beer in Byron Bay

yep, it’s official … we’ve bottled it!

We have been pumping out Draught Ale through the taps of the local pubs for nearly a year and a half now and the cloudy brew has also been appearing in pubs as far away as Tasmania and Melbourne. After lots of requests we have decided to answer the calls from far and wide and are rolling out Draught Ale in bottles so you can enjoy it when you’re not at the pub. The important thing for us was to stay pure to the principle of drawing the beer fresh from the storage tank into the bottle without filtering or pastuerising it.  We leave the yeast in Draught Ale because we believe it adds something special to the flavour of the beer. Over the last year or so we’ve noticed that the yeast tends to drop to the bottom of the kegs so we ask the guys at the pubs to roll the kegs around every day to rouse the yeast and keep it in suspension so they are always serving it with an even cloud of yeast. Over the last couple of months whilst we have been drinking our trial bottling runs of Draught Ale we have noticed the same thing happening in the bottles. The yeast drops to the bottom of the bottle over time so we recommend you give the bottle a gentle roll or tip it upside down before opening it to rouse the yeast.  Keep an eye on the Where to Get It page of our website to see where you can grab Draught Ale bottles … and give ‘em a roll
