About Boatrocker Brewers & Distillers

Pull up a stool among stacked barrels in Braeside for benchmark wild ales, dark imperial pours, and house-distilled spirits. Regulars bypass the standard lagers and head straight for the complex barrel-aged sours or the cult Ramjet imperial stout. Non-beer drinkers grab house gin cocktails or spiced rum, then wander out to the beer garden while woodfired pizzas arrive fresh from the oven.

  • Brewery & Distillery Taps: Taps pour house-aged stouts and sours, complemented by on-site distilled gin, vodka, and rum.
  • Pizzas & Food Trucks: Drinkers pair pours with fresh woodfired pizza or rotating food truck bites in the beer garden.
  • Flexible Cashless Ordering: Start a tab and order directly from the table using Mr Yum or order straight at the bar.

  • House-Distilled Spirits and Custom Cocktails

    Operating an on-site distillery alongside the brewery, guests can explore house-distilled gins, rums, vodkas, and handcrafted cocktails made from scratch.
