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.

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.

Larry is an easy drinking pale ale full of tropical Queensland fruit flavours. Lightly bittered and perfect for a hot Summer's day.

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.

Hes the last of a rare breed of pollie and an all-round good bloke. Anthony Albanese MP has earnt his sea legs and a hardworking beer named just for him. Cheers, Albo. A light, refreshing beer based on corn ales brewed by farmhands during the American Prohibition. Using a pale malt and corn base and very lightly hopped with Ella, Albo delivers a clean and long-lasting flavour. Tastefully dedicated to true local characters, Willie the Boatman has been bringing mates together since 2012.

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.

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.
