Matilda Bay Brewery moves house to Port Melbourne
It will be good to see the new Matilda Bay brewery up and running in Melbourne. The move from Dandenong to Melbourne and the eventual opening of a cafe bar will potentially give CUB’s craft brand a clearer identity, something has has been largely missing since the brand was moved from its Fremantle home in 2007. While Fat Yak, Big Helga and Dirty Granny will continue to come out of the Cascade Brewery in Tasmania (pending any changes made by the new corporate overlords at SABMiller), Matilda Bay’s new Port Melbourne base will produce the lower volume beers such as Alpha Pale Ale and Dogbolter. Head brewer Scott Vincent told Australian Brews News that the relocated facility will also focus on producing some new “smaller stuff”. I look forward to seeing what he has planned, in addition to the rumoured release of an Australian-style pale ale from the brewery. The move has seen the existing 2500-litre brewery moved from Dandenong, and a few new tanks and packaging equipment added. Matilda Bay has also welcomed a new brewer to the team, with former assistant brewer Aine O’Hora taking a position at CUB’s Abbotsford brewery and her position being taken by Chloe [...] [...] Read more →
