Description
Our team live and breathe Melbourne so it only makes sense that our beers are made here. Our beers are also brewed in batches so that the beer is fresher and that hard earned thirst is quenched.

Hawthorn Brewing Co. beers are brewed using as many local ingredients as possible. Yes, sometimes we do have to source from interstate (our southern cousins do have some pretty fine hops), but the quality is always there.

Like beer, we love and accept everyone. Beer does not care about your religion, race, gender or sexual orientation. Everyone (of legal drinking age) can enjoy our beer if they want and we hope that they do.

Beers are brewed at Tribe.

Pours dark amber, almost ruby, with a good white head.Wow, this is a really weird aroma. There’s some caramel and faint nutty notes, but there’s also a massive tangy hit with notes of vegemite and cherries... funky. Also some honey and toffee. That tangy aroma brings to mind lambics...Flavours are mostly comprised of toffee and caramel but the cardboard and cooked vegetable note also comes through. Not overpowering but definitely there.Nice smooth body, carbonation a bit high.

Bottle 12C. Pours amber, small beige head. Nose of toffee, plums and grass. Tastes quite fruity along with the caramel sweetness. A little wood and chewiness to go with some finishing bitterness. Fresh and well balanced.

Pours golden with a lovely, large persistent head.Nose shows juicy, fruity and floral hops, with sweet confectionery-like malt prevailing as well. Not all that bold, but still impressive.The confectionery-like malt transfers through as a flavour, but a grainy note creeps in as well. More juicy hops can be found, before a boring bitterness rolls through in an off-putting, weak finish.Too much carbonation.

Erm... no relation. Bottle (Chaucer Cellars). Pale copper, off-white head. Caramel malts, resiny and piney hops. Somewhat over-spritzy mouthfeel. Fruit and chocolatey-sweet malts. Fresh hops don’t quite clean up a sweetish finish.
