Associated Venue: Seven Sheds
Established in 2008
Seven Sheds opened for business in 2008 and continues to operate in its original “backyard” premises where visitors can see hops growing, sample the brews and meet the brewers.
The range includes a number of beers inspired by ingredients grown and produced in the Cradle Coast region including quinoa, oats, raspberries and honey. While the style is heavily influenced by English and European ales, Seven Sheds also produces quirky styles including a beetroot steam ale, a barrel-aged india pale ale and a tart cherry saison brewed with Kentish cherries.
Seven Sheds also produces a range of mead wines and one or more is usually available for tasting on request. The meads range from sweet and sparkling table wines to dry, medium and spiced meads.

(Bottle) Pours clear golden with big white head. Subtle aroma - slightly lemony and herby. Medium body with plenty of carbonation. Mouth filling and almost fluffy. Taste is quite dry and bitter. There’s lemony and herbal notes at the start, and a transient hint of sweetness in the mid palate. Very enjoyable.

Bottle 5.8% ABV. Unclear very dark brown with a tan head. Some singed toffee and grain but really mostly about chocolate - assertive floral and orange tinged. Smooth texture with some oatmeal stout- like body. Moderate sweetness starts as chocolate but that seems to then have floral and slightly astringent tones as it gets towards the dry and somewhat bitter finish. That seemed to hollow it out a bit for me, but does emphasize the exotic cocoa. Maybe that slightly nutty and spicy note is from the quinoa? Interesting beer that drew me in the more I had.

From a 500ml bottle on 30/7/2017. Pours a dark cloudy reddy amber, with a big foamy head.The nose is strong and all smoke and peat. The flavour is very peaty too, but also features some sweet cherry fruitiness, some dark fruit, with a decently firm bitterness coming over the top. It’s like drinking a sweet fruity Laphroaig. The palate is full is thick, with the carbonation moderate. This exhibits terrific balance and complexity. It’s flavour packed, extremely moreish and drinks so very easily. Reminds me a bit of one of all time fave Aussie beers, the HopDog Super Beast 2013, but a bit more delicate. Just outstanding.

Bottle, 5.9%ABV. Bronze with a large off white head that settles slowly to 1 cm and never disappears. Aroma is earthy and spicy with strong bread, some dried fruit. Chewy. Bread crusts, some dried banana. Only a little earthy. A dry, bitter and surprisingly warming finish with punchy and very English spices. Feels very substantial but is very drinkable with that finish really lifting things. Only gradually appreciated just how hoppy it is. Stunning but respectful twist on type of beer that can be a bit staid.

750ml bottle into glass. Nose is milk chocolate and cocoa. Dark red/brown beer with solid creamy head. Good body, viscous and smooth. Taste is bittersweet chocolate. Finish has some lingering cocoa backed by subtle hops. Lovely beer, more stout-like then most stouts I’ve had lately.

500ml bottle into glass. Hazy bronze beer with floaties and high carbonation. Nose is smoky malt and distant earthy hops. Easy-drinking and earthy IPA with some malty spice and dark fruit late on. Made with their own hops grown at the brewery.
