What's On Tap

• Style: German Pils
• Aroma: Light Citrus
• Flavour: Light Citrus/Malt Sweetness
• Hops: Citra
• About:Crisp with a malty backbone. This is the kinda drop you want cold and fresh, just the way we do it. Our Lager is tapped directly from the tank, stored at 0.5C for its entire life, never touching sunlight until it's poured into your glass. Best consumed under the shade of a Coolibah tree.

This ain’t no Great Northern! Clean and invigorating, from the first sip you'll be greeted with a crisp flavour profile that perfectly balances subtle malt sweetness with a hint of floral hops. The light-bodied mouthfeel is effervescent, providing a refreshing burst of carbonation. The finish is smooth and dry, with a lingering crispness that makes you reach for another sip. This lager is exceptionally smooth and easy-drinking.

Flavour: Light malt flavours provide a gentle sweetness, perfectly balanced by a mild hop bitterness that leaves a dry, refreshing finish.

Aroma: Subtle notes of Citrus

Mouthfeel: Light body that coats the mouth nicely then descends into a dry finish thanks to the heavy dose of rice in the grist.

American Pale Ale (APA) USA

A straight-up, classic American pale ale. Sitting at a solid 5.6%, this one’s all about that old-school West Coast vibe. We’ve packed it with Chinook and Cascade hops from Yakima valley in the USA, bringing you those bold piney, citrusy notes that made American pales legendary in the first place. Crisp, balanced, and just the right amount of bitter, it’s the kind of beer that keeps you coming back for another sip. A proper, refreshing pale ale done right.

Three different Aussie hops to have you yelling Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi into the glass before exclaiming pour me another, bloody throats as dry as a dead dingoes donger. This is Ted’s Re-Incarnation and Re-Interpretation of an old Bucketty’s recipe. Packed full of Aussie Hops, but lighter on the ABV makes it a tasty sessionable hazy.

Flavour: Tangy, Zesty Citrus goodness, with notes of Mandarin and Passion Fruit.

Aroma: Strong notes of Citrus and Pine

Mouthfeel: Dry with a crisp bitterness

• Style: Extra Pale Ale
• Aroma: Tropical
• Flavour: Tropical, Citrus
• Hops: Citra
• About: I'm packed full of citra hops, and fermented using Norwegian super yeast, allowing me to turn from barley to beer in only 5 days

Loaded with heaps of fresh raspberry purée, this bright and crisp sour is elevated by a late addition of grapefruit, creating a perfect balance. The delicate harmony of tartness, mouth-puckering sour notes, and sweet summer fruits makes it the perfect refreshing sipper for warm days.

• Style: American IPA
• Aroma: Tropical, Fruity, Citrus
• Flavour: Refreshingly light. Very light body - it is 1% after all!!
• Hops: Centennial (US), Mosaic (US)
• About: Low-alcohol beer, it's like regular beer's smarmy cousin who shows up to the party, keeps things light, and leaves you feeling pleasantly surprised. With a hint of alcohol to make you say, 'Hey, I'm having a good time,' and not enough to make you start reciting Shakespeare to your pet goldfish.
  
  For me this beer is twofold - #1 it's a challenging beer to brew as to keep alcohol low - standard brewing norms are pretty much thrown out the window. #2 How many punters drink Heaps Normal as they are driving and would a 1% beer go down a treat instead?

• Style: New Zealand IPA
• Aroma: Tropical, Fruit Juice, Grapefruit, Lime
• Flavour: Mango Juice, Guava, Grapefruit
• Hops: New Zealand Hops - Motueka, Nectaron
• About: An easy drinking hazy, soft and juicy. Straw-like in colour with a higher-than-normal residual sweetness to add to the "juicy" mouth feel. The use of oats (malted and un-malted), have contributed to both the haze and softer mouthfeel. The use of wheat has provided the essential proteins for haze...Chur!

• Style: American IPA
• Aroma: Citrus, Rock Melon
• Flavour: Citrus, Rock Melon, Stone Fruit, medium body
• Hops: Amarillo, Citra, Simco, Strata, Mosaic
• About: I'M BACK BABY! OG West Coast IPA back on tap for limited time only. Take a sip then pause for a moment as you inhale magical rainbow of amarillo, mosaic, simco and strata hops. You're in for a treat.

Bright Golden colour and Aromas of ripe banana, clove, and subtle spice from the Belgian yeast. Smooth and well-balanced, with fruity esters, light malt sweetness, and a gentle peppery finish. Slightly lower carbonation enhances the smooth, refreshing character.

Lush amber ale just tapped on the handpump

English Amber Ale

A bold, malty British Amber ale. Hopped using an abundance of Fuggles and Harlequin hops all the way from Kent in the UK. A real tip of the hat from me to traditional British brewing traditions. Easy drinking and full flavoured. Notes of biscuit and marmalade throughout.

Or…

Corr blimey guv’ na! That’s a proper lovely pint that!

Pouring an obsidian black, it’ll make a long black look like dishwater, with a creamy tan head that hopefully doesn’t disappear like your best mate when it’s his round.

Flavour: It’s like biting into a rich, dark chocolate bar while sipping on a freshly brewed espresso, all rounded off with the subtle nuttiness of oats. There’s a cheeky bitterness that sneaks in at the end, leaving your taste buds nodding in approval.

Aroma: Take a sniff and you’ll think you’ve wandered into a hipster café. You’ll get smacked in the nose with roasted coffee beans, dark chocolate, and toasted oats.

Mouthfeel: Full-bodied and smoother than your best pickup line after a few pints. It’s got dry bitterness at the end, just to remind you it’s a serious beer, not some fruity nonsense.

Pairings: Goes down a treat with a beef stew that’s been cooking longer than your nan’s life story, or a chocolate cake that’s richer than a mining mogul. Or even better, sat around the bush telly with mates.

Stout - Because sometimes, the best adventures happen after dark.

Name: Bucketty's Stout

Style: Dry Irish /Oatmeal Stout

Hops: Centennial, Fuggles

Key Words: Dry, Roasty, Coffee, Dark Chocolate

• Style: Ginger Beer
• Aroma: Slightly sweet, ginger spice
• Flavour: Ginger
• Hops: IS NOT GLUTEN FREE
• About: Yes. Yes we do! After being asked every day if we have a ginger beer, the answer is finally a resounding YES! This brew is packed full of gingery spice and goes perfectly with a wedge of lime.

• Style: Cider
• Aroma: Apple/Lemon Myrtle
• Flavour: dry cider but not tart, lemon, apple, hint of honey
• About: We used Granny Smith apple juice which usually makes a tart cider. It fermented out quite low which gives it that dry finish. We decided to use up the left-over honey to back sweeten it a bit then thought the left-over lemon myrtle might make this cider a bit different than just a run-of-mill tart cider. The result is a dry but somehow balanced cider with notes of apple, lemon myrtle, and a touch of honey

It's ok, we can't all be legends! We've got a full bar license and serve a range of locally produced wines, spirits, cocktails, juices and soft drinks. We even have alcohol free beer options. There's something for everyone!
