Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Glass House Brewery, 8/330 Mons Rd, Forest Glen QLD 4556, Australia
Mid-morning you’ll be rolling up to the first of our three awesome breweries, The Glasshouse Brewery, tucked away among the organic shops and industrial spaces of Forest Glen.
The Glasshouse has kept that cool, industrial pared-back functional vibe in its tall, airy ceilings, wooden beams, and pallet-clad walls, which means that there’s plenty of space to stretch out.
The passion project of a couple of mates who thought of it over a beer (what else?), the Glasshouse Brewery is the centre of a lively post-Covid jazz scene and the host of the Sunshine Coast Jazz & Brews Fest 2021, so, if luck is on your side, you might be treated to a spot of jazz while you’re served from a mouthwatering selection of choice house beers.
You’ve got your Front & Line, a classic Aussie draught ale brewed in honour of our fantastic healthcare workers, a sharp and fruity Raspberry Sour, a grassy Pilsner, and a whole ton of other classy brews.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Your Mates Brewing Co., 41 Technology Dr, Warana QLD 4575, Australia
Jump back in the minibus for the short drive to your next stop, Warana-based Your Mates Brewing Co, a uniquely successful craft brewery (Best New Brewery Beery Award 2019) with an awesome from-underdog-to-top-dog backstory, an array of popular beers and damn good food.
Hep and McGarry, the co-founders of Your Mates, say that their brewery is built on good mates, good times and good beer – and it shows! As soon as you step inside, you’ll feel right at home.
Tuck into your freshly-prepared lunch with a taste of Larry, an Australian pale ale that was Your Mates’ first-ever beer – and voted the 4th most popular beer in all of Australia. Pretty good going, huh?
With two brew kits, Your Mates can brew 6,000 litres of beer at a time, and with the kegs and fermenters, there’s a heck of a lot of beer on the go. There are 12 beers on tap and a few experimentals and small batches that are only available on-site.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: 10 Toes Brewery, Shop 4 127a Sugar Rd, Alexandra Headland, Queensland 4572 Australia
After lunch, it’s time to get back on the road to drive to popular Maroochydore surfing resort Alexandra Headland for your third and final stop, 10 Toes Brewery. Founded by Rupert and Kelly, an ex-corporate couple who saw the light, it’s quickly gained a reputation and followers for the variety and depth of its beers.
Its core range includes super thirst-quenching Hell Yes German-style lager, brewed with Pilsner malts and Motueka hops; rich chocolatey Alter Ego, a vanilla porter; and Pipeline, bursting with the acidity of tropical fruits.
After this leisurely chill-out stop, it’s time to head back to your chosen drop-off point
