Launched in 2013 by Dan Dainton and his old man Kev, their first few years were a roving operation with Dan making beer out of breweries all over Victoria, but the father and son duo were constantly on the lookout for a place they could call home.

A few years later, with a brewery in place, the beers and awards started to flow with an impressive haul of trophies at The Indies, including the Champion Australian Beer in both 2017 and 2019 and Champion Large Independent Brewery in 2020.

From a core range of favourites to a steady stream of limited seasonal brews, we pride ourselves on producing some of the most inventive, insane and downright delicious beers in Australia.
