PUNKY  BREWSTER  JOCKEY  BOX

50L KEGS

With the helping hands of a couple of keen beer engineers, we've managed to put together a set of Jockey Boxes for rent. These bad boys hook themselves up to a keg at one end and a bottle of CO2 on the other.

​The beer is then pressured through the metal coil on the inside which is packed full of ice. This means fresh, cold beer from a room temperature keg on the go. Suitable for all sorts of occasions; weddings, parties, day at the beach, funerals. The world is your oyster.

MCLEODS  LONGBOARDER  LAGER 

$15.00/L
5.0%
McLeods' flagship beer and a trophy winner, this is a proper Lager matured for a full six weeks before release. Expect a sparkling light-gold colour with ripe melon and stone fruit aromas. Crisp but layered with ‘biscuity’ malt, it finishes dry with balanced bitterness. 

BEHEMOTH  DRINK  TOMORROW  #2  IMPERIAL  COFFEE  STOUT

$20.00/L
11.0%
Welcome to Drink Tomorrow No.2.  You obviously like big imperial stouts.  We can be friends now.  This time around we have gone with a slightly less roasty,  but more chocolatey, number by adding lactose and Single Origin Nicaraguan cocoa nibs.  This beer is made with the ability to age but we recommend you drink one of these tonight (after dinner I say) and then maybe age one.  But, then again, patience has never been my strong suit, so I won't blame you if you ignore the name of this beer.

$16.00/L

Yakima is a region in the state of Washington USA where some of Joseph Wood’s favorite hops are grown. This monster of a Pale Ale showcases several of those hops. "It’s a easy drinking beer, flavorsome enough for your father ’n law to exclaim "wow - that’s fruity!" yet complex enough for any green blooded hop-head to appreciate." - Joseph Wood, Liberty Brewer.

HEYDAY  ROCK DANCE  AMERICAN  PILSNER

$15.00/L

HEYDAY  HELIO  APA

$18.00/L

Deep Creek got creative for their first Brut IPA and decided to make it truly "Brut" and fermented it with Chardonnay grape juice. The result is a straw coloured, very dry IPA with low bitterness but heaps of fruity hop character. All of that on top of a dry white wine body and tang. 

HEYDAY  SWEET  RUSH  LEMONGRASS  WITBIER

$16.00/L
5.0%
Sweet Rush - the Jamaican name for Lemongrass. A twist on the classic Belgian style Witbier. With fresh lemongrass, coriander seed and orange zest. Sweet Rush is made with love, based on our brewer’s wedding beer and is his go-to after a long day in the brewery.

GROUND  UP  OATMEAL  STOUT
