Craft Beer Tastings

If you’re looking for Sunshine Coast attractions, we’re a small local brewery with craft beer tastings. Our local brews are unique, and each has its own story and appeal. We host brewery tours throughout the day, where you’ll meet our renowned brewer, where he’ll explain the grass roots connection to Coolum culture, brewing methods, local values and what makes the Sunny Coast such a special community. Again, we’re only a small brewery, and we only host tastings and tours on certain days. Please call ahead to reserve your spot. Private tours are available too.
