Our special release ales, ciders and meads are available in very limited quantity and released from time to time during the year.

Second hand wine barrels are filled with spontaneous brews of our ale, cider and mead, often steeping fruits from the Derwent Valley including morello cherries, plums, pumpkins, red berries, medlars and more. Oysters, mussels and seaweed from Tasmania’s southern waters also find their way into the brewhouse as well.

Our latest barrel aged release is the Fruit Bomb 5.8% alc. vol. 375ml.  A naturally soured ale brewed in October 2016 was steeped with red fruits from the Derwent Valley including raspberries, blackberries, mulberries, red & black currants. Lightly sparkling and bottle conditioned we highly recommend this two year old, barrel aged ale served in a wine glass as a perfect match with cured meats.  (Producer’s notes)
