Produced only in small batch quantities, revered Melburnian craft brewers Mountain Goat have released their popular Fancy Pants Amber Ale in cans. This unique brew has been nearly 20 years in the making after the guys at Mountain Goat had their beer epiphany moment back in the early 1990s. They discovered that beer doesn't have to be bland or at the opposite end, completely overpowering. In fact you could make a wonderfully drinkable brew that was a tad 'fancy'. They achieve this with the blending of Munich, Crystal and Roasted malt with the perfect amount of Cascade and Galaxy hops that delivers an amber colour, a soft sweet palate that is kept in check by the spicy, floral and fruity aspects of the quality hops.

Tooheys New - official currency of the beer economy - has a lightly hopped, malty character, delivering the perfect balance of bitter and sweet beer flavours. Its defining characteristic is its smooth, refreshing, easy drinking taste. Low in effervescence to enhance refreshment - each sip tastes as good as the first.

John Boston The Guardhouse Golden Ale is an aromatic beer with mouth-watering notes of stone fruit and Australian pale toffee malt characteristics. This results in full bodied flavour, an intense golden hue and a velvety smooth finish.

Colonial Brewing Co. South West Sour is a warm weather seasonal brewed in Margaret River in Western Australias South West. Pale, Wheat and Munich malts build a light body with a hint of sweetness and is partially fermented with a natural acidifying bacteria in the brewhouse. Ale yeast completes the job in the fermentation tank, adding a little extra fruitiness to boot. Hops from both hemispheres provide a vibrant tropical aroma, but with low bitterness to keep this golden sour light and refreshing.

A mainstay of the Melbourne beer scene, Melbourne bitter is a smooth and refreshing bitter that is always at the affordable end of the market.

North-western brewing maestros, Matso's, produce some of Australia's premier craft beers. Their Mango Beer is based on a classic Belgium Blonde recipe with a fruit flavoured slant. Using a 100% natural mango blend the brewers have developed an easy drinking beer style with excellent fruit aroma and balancing sweet dryness.

Coopers Session Ale is a refreshing summer style naturally conditioned ale that delivers tropical fruit notes with a distinct dry hop character and mild bitterness.

Mild Ale is brewed with a selection of barley and wheat malt, and with no added sugar. This traditional brewing approach provides the smooth malt character which is balanced by a triple hopping with Pride of Ringwood and Saaz hops. The brew is fermented similarly to its stablemates Pale and Sparkling Ale, with the customary secondary fermentation in the bottle.
