Description
Like most good stories, ours started over a beer. Meeting on opposite sides of the bar, Richard Adamson and Oscar McMahon got talking over their love of beer and music, and discovered they also shared the view that the Australian beer scene felt a little stagnant – that it should be more adventurous, innovative and fun. With Richard’s experience in brewing, and Oscar’s hospitality know-how, they decided they should do more than just talk.
Overcoming a tangle of red tape, Young Henrys eventually found a home in a modest warehouse in the backstreets of Newtown. With a few friends, a small brew kit and the maxim to ‘serve the people’, the first Young Henrys beers were brewed in March 2012.

deep mahogany color. Full bodied, a bit too malty and rich. Not so balanced or interesting.

cloudy yellow color. Not a ton of character, but very refreshing and light. More hops are needed to balance out the beer, but still a good effort.

(on tap) Hazy copper with slight white head. Aroma was pretty faint; mostly malty. Medium bodied with nice carbonation. A straight forward and well balanced beer. Pleasant sweet malty start and nice bitterness in finish. Overall a nice beer.
