The best modern Aussie whites offer an abundance of sun-ripened fruit balanced by crisp, zingy refreshment. None more so than Yarrunga Field, and the 2018 is as fruity and fresh as ever.

Sam Trimboli LOVES Durif. He calls it a “stunning little powerhouse grape that develops astounding complexity”. The numberplate on his car even sports the word ‘Durif’, that’s how highly he rates it. The grapes for this wine come from a small vineyard that Sam helped establish in the 1980s and is now at peak maturity.

Young Henrys wouldnt be what it is without Newtown. Its their home, community and inspiration. So when the suburb celebrated its sesquicentenary they were invited to brew a unique beer to celebrate, they jumped at the chance. The resulting beer was an Aussie Pale Ale called Newtowner. In a bit of a nod to the suburbs past and present influences, we used a blend of English and Australian malts. Then we added three varieties of local hops to make it fun, fruity and even a little bitter. Carton of 24 x 375mL Cans.

Coopers Extra Pale Ale is an easy drinking and well balanced ale that's full of hop flavour.

An easy-drinking pale, delivering a big, floral aroma, with tropical notes of lychee, stone fruit and citrus. Lightly toasted malt and gentle bitterness deliver a clean finish.

Smooth, refreshing, easy drinking taste. Slightly hopped, malty character delivers perfect balance of bitter and sweet beer flavours. Low in effervescence to enhance refreshment. The perfect partner for juicy char grilled beef and meat pies.

Yeah, quadruple-hopped, barrel-aged, double IPAs brewed with gold leaf and space dust are great, but have you ever had a pale ale? A good pale ale is a beautiful thing, and Tasty Pale Ale is a stunner. With punchy hop flavours of pine and stone fruit from the all-US hop line up, and a full-bodied mouthfeel, this brew is one tasty crowd pleaser.

Australian ginger from the Australian ground (good ground), ensure things like real ginger cream and natural base products are used to create a great tasting, refreshing beverage, perfect when you don't feel like drinking beer or wine. Complex yet simple, safe but dangerous, smooth yet sharp, tight but loose. That's Brookvale Union.
