A (fast) Pirate’s Life
Their brewery runs 24/7 and plans for their second site are well under way. Pirate Life Brewing showed up in 2014 and have been going fast and strong ever since.
White Lakes Brewing: One Year On
It’s been just over a year since White Lakes Brewing opened so I sat down and chatted with head brewer Sean Symons

Homestead + first impressions
Homestead Brewery in the Swan Valley have made a great first impression on me and I’ll be spending many a sunny afternoons in their beer garden
girl + indi brew day
Invite me along to a brewery and I’m going to be a very happy girl, it’s really that simple.

Don’t you just love being among the first to know something? Something big, something exciting and something beery …
girl + cow
Moody Cow Brewery operates under the loving care of Grant and Karen McClintock and is just one of two breweries operating in the Ferguson Valley. Grant brews the beers and they have won him a few awards including a Silver Medal at the 2011 Perth Royal Beer Show for his Gruntas Original Ale.
girl + cheeky monkey
A visit to the newest brewery to call Margaret River home – Cheeky Monkey – with a brief stop over at the first – Bootleg – and that’s what I would call a pretty successful day!
girl + beer … on location
Only in the South West could an attempt to catch up with a mate result in a day in a brewhouse. Mal is Head Brewer at Colonial Brewery in Margaret River and invited me to hang out in the brewery for the day whilst they brewed the next Limited Edition Colonial beer – a Baltic Porter. Due to release in late June/early July – start planning your South West getaway now!
