The Brewery has a production capacity of over 5000 liters, allowing us to make our staple Lamma Island IPA, Hong Kong Bastard Imperial IPA, Quit Your Job! Saison, Machine Men Pale ale, and Seasonal Real Ales, as well as stretch our creative muscles and push boundaries with numerous experimental single batch brews, using fruit, cryo-hops, barrel aging, or anything else we can think of to make the best, most interesting, most exciting beer possible.
So the question now is: Where do we go from here?
We've come a long way from home brewing in Luke's living room, but throughout our ethos has remained the same: working with other independent, like-minded quality breweries in Asia to push the local scene forward, to develop, innovate, craft and create. We want to make a craft beer community, to fight against the encroachment of corporate beer on craft by showing what real craft is.

Can, huge thanks Fil for bringing it from HK and sharing! Pale golden body, white head. Basil dominates and permeates the aroma, didn't get much else, especially in terms of chili. Sour taste, basil, low chilli, some lemony notes, light umami... bit unimpressive to be honest, but the inspiration for it is real and worthy of support.
Jet black, low carbonation. Touch of nori undertones. On the most, both mango and basil in a bit of a battle, on the palate, clear mango juice fruitiness with a clean herbal note cutting through from the basil. Nice tartness
