Description
We’ve been brewing beer since 2014 and have a wide variety on offer. We believe great beer requires seriousness: the best ingredients, dedicated arty crafters, the right equipment, and “gees” and “stokedness”. Our beer names, on the other hand, are all “shits, giggles, sex, drugs and rock ‘n roll”. We have entwined some tongue-in-cheek lightness into
our serious craft.

The brewers are always playing around with new flavours and techniques, constantly creating new and exciting brews.

We invite you to come and take a tour, sample our brews and follow that experience by enjoying a Bavarian Beerhall style restaurant with a couple of beers at the bar of The Woodstock Beerhall.

On tap at Woodstock. Pours hazy pale yellow with a white head. Light citrus peel and sweet malts on the nose. Tastes like a vitamin C candy, lots of sugary lemon citrus. Clean and drinkable, but not that interesting.
