Craft Beer is the New Black

Drinking craft beer and hanging out at breweries is fast becoming a favourite Aussie pastime. These days it’s not just for the hipsters, everyone is jumping on the craft beer bandwagon. What better way to spend an afternoon than drinking a nice cold pint at your local brewery with your mates? Cheers to that!
Balter Brewing Company
Balter is a favourite amongst locals, and established by a couple of surfing legends. With a ten-fold expansion, this brewing company is going nowhere but up in the coming years.
Burleigh Brewing Company
One of the "OG" brewing companies on the scene - the Burleigh Brewing Company have created quite the name for themselves. With frequent live music and events, the brewery is a hit with all beer lovers.
Black Hops Brewery
Brewed by three mates on the Gold Coast, if you like supporting local businesses Black Hops is the brewery for you. With a new and creative craft beer every month, you'll never get bored of their brews.

The cutest brewery you'll ever set foot in. Enjoy treating yourself to one of the Lost Palms Brewing's own craft beers and nestle into the pastel-themed brewery hidden in the back streets of Miami.
Stone & Wood Brewery Byron Bay
If you're making a road trip to Byron Bay, don't forget to stop in for a much needed pit stop and cool down at the Stone & Wood Brewery. There's nothing like a cold beer on a warm summer's day.
