VILLAGER'S PALE ALE
5.1% ABV
From Byron, to Bangalow and beyond, the lush hinterland is made up of a series of small villages, each with their own unique offerings. Our Villager’s Pale is made by the locals, for the locals and visitors alike.
An approachable session beer, our Pale is the perfect balance of new world hops, supported by a pleasing maltiness with a presence of citrus, resinous pine notes and just a slight hint of aniseed. This is a beer that you’ll always return to for its perfect combination of aromatics, smooth bitterness and satisfying malts.

PROTESTERS IPA
6.2% ABV
Located an hour’s drive from the brewery, the stunning Protesters Falls are so named as a group of locals lobbied in 1979 against a large area of state forest being logged. The protest is regarded as a watershed moment in Australia's environmental movement and cited as the first time people physically defended a natural resource. The area is now part of the World Heritage listed Nightcap National Park and will be preserved for future generations to appreciate.
Our IPA pays homage to this landmark movement by packing its own punch, with an intense hop profile of zesty fruits and tropical notes. This aromatically driven beer is balanced out by a strong bitterness and a subtle malty finish that allows the combination of the new world hops to display their full character.

HELLES HOLE LAGER
4.5% ABV
This is our take on the traditional German Helles lager, with “Helles” meaning bright or light in colour. The play on words pays a cheeky nod to a hidden and treacherous local swimming spot in the nearby hills, yet another natural wonder in their neck of the woods. The use of light pilsner malts fermented for an extended time produces a clean lager with a soft finish which is carried through by a robust bitterness.
Traditional German hops provide subtle notes of spice, and finishing at 4.5% in alcohol, the well-balanced Helles Hole has pleased all the lager enthusiasts out there.

EL SABRO HAZY IPA
6.0% ABV
Our Australian International Beer Awards GOLD MEDAL WINNING mouth-watering El Sabro Hazy IPA is back, and now it's part of our core range, so you can enjoy the taste of Summer all year round!
Taking over tastebuds once again, El Sabro has a decidedly intense aroma of coconut and fresh pineapple, with a burst of tropical flavours.
Its vibrant colour and shiny opaque appearance makes it look as juicy as it tastes with a super smooth finish derived from the protein haze. El Sabro has a gentle bitterness but packs a huge fruit punch.

MOONLESS MIDNIGHT STOUT

“Dark as a Moonless Midnight”, this sweet stout exhibits notes of coffee, cacao and hints of tobacco. A full bodied sweetness to finish is balanced with roasted malts and smooth bitterness. It’s like a nice hug in a glass.
This delicious winter warmer is part of our core range, available for your tastebuds every day!
Contains lactose (and hugs).

RAIL TRAIL HAZY PALE
4.3% ABV
This latest creation is an approachable session hazy. Light on the alc so that you can jump back on the bike and hit the trail... when the rail trail comes to fruition, that is!
Hop varieties of Azzacca and Galaxy give a pleasant mix of tropical fruits mixed with citrus. On the palate, it’s particularly spicy with mango, passionfruit, pineapple and some pine, with tangerine-esque qualities evident.
Finished with a dose of lactose to give a silky smooth balance between sweetness, fruit and bitterness.
ANKLE BITER MID
3.5% ABV
Paying homage to founders’ eight kids who have clocked some serious hours at the brewery while their parents worked furiously to open the doors, the Ankle Biter is also a tribute to our fearless GM who suffered a nasty burn on his leg when brewing this beer. This full body California Common (Steam Ale) is brewed with lager yeast and fermented at ale temperatures.
The result offers the formation of a big ester profile. Late hopping of Amarillo produces citrusy orange and grapefruit notes on the nose and palate. Big on the residual malt and bitterness you would be forgiven for thinking this is a full strength beer but at an ABV of 3.5%, you can head back to the bar for another.

SPICY BOI CHILLI MARGARITA CERVEZA
4.9% ABV
Spice up your life with Spicy Boi - our hottest creation yet. This cerveza is brewed with malted corn which provides a subtle sweetness and we’ve added all the ingredients of a refreshing margarita. We’re talking zesty limes, salt and hints of agave. But with a Common People twist, we're bringing the heat all the way to your bones with the addition of some fresh Habanero chillies.
Our Summer seasonal has got bite, but at an ABV of 4.9%, it won’t send you sideways!
BLACK FOREST SOUR
4.9% ABV
As indulgent as the name suggests, this kettle soured creation has all the fresh fruits you're accustomed to in your black forest cake with masses of blueberries, blackberries and raspberries from our friends at Blueberry Fields in Brooklet. We've then added cherries and strawberries for good measure.
This sour is a perfect harmony of tart and sweet fruit accentuated by the saison yeast imparting its own fruit to this orchestra of flavour. A hint of lactose gives that smooth as silk touch on the palette.
The iridescent purple colour and intense fruity aroma will leave you with no doubt of what is about to delight the taste buds. Indulge yourself!
RYE HERE, RYE NOW GOLDEN ALE
5.1% ABV
Our latest offering is a Fresh Hop Rye Golden Ale. This beer has been hopped the entire length with fresh hops cones or hop flowers. The hop cones can only be sourced fresh once a year and an absolute truckload has been added to this beer offering aromatic pine, citrus and floral notes.
The malty backbone of this beer is a Vampire Rye grain that imparts a spicy, bready and peppery flavour. The Rye also offers a notable creamier body and mouthfeel. A unique and complex beer that is a perfect winter drop.
NOCTURNAL BLACK IPA
7.0% ABV
We have 'gone dark' on this Black IPA.
An intensely rich cacophony of nine different malts imparts caramels, cocoa nibs and a hint of roasted notes, balanced with an equally intense dank and resinous hop forward profile.
There’s so much body in this beer, you could cut it with a knife.
MALT'N LAVA RED IPA
7.0% ABV
The deep red copper indicates a big malty backbone showcasing eight (yes eight!) different malts.
Flavours of dark caramel, toffee and raisin are evident, combined with a big hop profile, notes of grapefruit and dare we say it... cannabis!
This beer finishes with a robust bitterness, is well balanced and full of flavour. Hold this one up to the light of the fire and drink it in.

BILLYCART BLONDE
7.6% ABV
As proud sponsors of the Bangalow Billycart Derby, we’re stoked to be bringing back our oh-so- delightful Billycart Blonde!
This Belgian Blonde has a bright golden appearance, with a sweet malty aroma of honey and spice. The smooth and rounded mouthfeel balances well with tastes of honeydew, finishing with a medium bitterness.
Just like the ride down the Bangalow main street, at 7.6% ABV this beer is not for the faint at heart, but may just be the best ride of your life.
Fortune favours the brave!
STRADDLE IT TASMAN PILSNER
4.8% ABV
Based on a traditional Czech pilsner with not so traditional additions of new world hops from both sides of the Tasman.
In the Aussie corner it's Australia's greatest contribution to beer... Galaxy hops, showcasing citrus, peach and passionfruit. In the New Zealand corner it's Nelson Sauvin hops with its distinctive white wine and black current notes.
This fruity pilsner is decidedly smashable!
BARREL AGED BILLYCART BLONDE
10.3% ABV
Our very special edition batch the Barrel Aged Billycart Blonde is on tap for a limited time only, and available in extra special 440mL cans.
Over the past 10 months our Belgian Billycart Blonde has been residing in ex-rum barrels from our friends at the Lord Byron Distillery, creating an otherworldly beer for all of the senses.
The silky smooth vanilla and oak notes imparted by the barrels. The characteristic rum flavour. The phenolic and spice from the Belgian Blonde beer. And the warming heat from the higher alcohols. All working in perfect balance.
