In-Store Tasting - 2m Tall Brewing Company


Ashley Huntington is making the trip across the ditch to pour his Huon Dark Ale and Forester Pale for the punters on Friday June 15th (5.00pm - 7.30pm) at the Camberwell Store (766 Burke Rd).

We'd love to see you at the shop for a sip or 2! And we might open a few other new beers to make it worth you while.

About the Brewery......

Jane & Ashley Huntington grow cereal crops and beef cattle on 600Ha on the banks of the Derwent River. Ashley is a qualified winemaker and was Manager-Senior Winemaker of Hardy's La Baume winery in the south of France for 7 vintages until 2004.

The 2m Tall Brewing Company is developing its brewing and winemaking facility at Valleyfield in the Derwent Valley- just a 10 minute drive from their farm. Established in 1813 by an emancipated 'first fleeter', Valleyfield is the property where hops were first successfully grown in Australia on a commercial basis.

Brewer Tasting Notes - Forester Pale Ale
Featuring Pride of Ringwood hops procured directly from the kilns of the last two hop farms in the Forester region of North East Tasmania. This is a refreshing and versatile, fully flavoured, bitter pale ale.

Brewer Tasting Notes - Huon Dark Ale
Taking a classic dark ale base, a winemaker's touch has provided a soft, rich fruit palate via the use of fresh, unfiltered apple juice procured directly from an on-farm apple grower and processor in the Huon Valley. A blend of five different barley malts, this is a complex and satisfying drinking experience.
