Stay tuned for more to follow.

Hamish's Singapore junket

There may be no spitting, no chewing gum, no graffiti and no crime, but Singapore has plenty of good beer!! With 7 microbreweries and more on the way, Hamish was only too happy to pay a visit in the name of selfless research! We experienced Irish Red Ales on the Singapore River, Indian Pale Ales in Clarkey Quay, Czech Pilsner's in Dempsey Hill and a seedy night in Little India...but that's another story!

Stockists page updated

Have just updated the stockists page - we have a few new supporters including 'celebrity chef' Adrian Richardson's La Luna Bistro in Carlton North!

HBC Pale Ale: Beer of the Month @ Vaucluse Hotel

Head on down to Beretta's at the Vaucluse Hotel in Richmond where you'll find our Hawthorn Pale Ale posters all around the place promoting the "Beer of the month" for July.
A great place for both pre and post football drinks as well as enjoying a meal, with of course a Hawthorn Pale - it's perfect with their Nasi Goreng!

Another Medal !!
