They also have coffee by common ground roasters and a merchandise area! Come check it out! x

I tried the sparkling shiraz and it was simply wonderful! They serve a small selection of wine, cider and beer - you don't need lot's of options of they're really good choices - as well as simple snacks but nothing from a kitchen or any food off a menu. It's the perfect place to come for a relaxing drink by the water when visiting Goolwa. I suggest planning your next move if you need lunch or dinner though. they charged $10 entry on NYE to view the fireworks from here.

I have had some of their beers before, namely because I wandered into a bottle shop, but it was great to actually visit the brewery itself.

I came for a visit on a Saturday, it was quite busy, and the staff had asked if we had made a reservation. I suggest booking a table if you're planning a visit, especially on a weekend. The brewery has a great airy and open feel to it, a variety of tables and seating, and great decorations hanging about. There was a large variety of pub style to choose from, I opted for the nachos, although my friend wanted salad and was told that both salad options listed on the menu were no longer being offered. The best part, however, were the endless options of beers. They had a variety of selections on tap, a few ciders, and even cans and bottles to take home. I ordered the Zeppelin IPA and I loved it. Overall, I highly recommend paying this brewery a visit up in the hills, it was great.

Nugg Lyf's goodies couldn't be a better match for a beer or three and include a range of chicken nuggets (not the processed chicken you'd expect from nuggets but rather chunks of real chicken breast crafted into bite sized portions), very tasty burgers and for dessert, doughnut holes and churros. While you're there, check out the contraption that allows selected beers to be infused with a range of other interesting ingredients. On my most recent visit the Ace of Spades Stout was infused with fresh licorice - different but delicious!

Sure it sounds like a sales gimmic but I believe them and they are south Australian too. I have to support local business. I love their new nashi pear cider. Its like nothing I have ever tasted before in a pear cider. It has a strong woody after taste. I love it. Cant wait to try their apple and ginger flavour. I hope this local continues to do well.

Holy heck they have a hopped cider, this is amazing, my boyfriend doesn't really like cider and he loves hoppy beer like IPA's whereas I like cider and do not like beer specially not IPA's, this cider works for both of us and that hop flavour is so delicate but definitely there. Need to purchase over and over again. 2. Now, we don't want to condone binge drinking, BUT who doesn't love an 8% cider...Ginger and Apple cider i discovered is high in alcohol but not only that delicious, tart and tasty with that little ginger kick which I love, if you are a light weight you may only need 1-2 of these and be done. The event made me open my eyes to such a larger range which is so much tastier than the basic apple and pear, it makes things interesting, i hate sweet ciders but these two different options are not sweet nor girly!!

They have a large brewery on Port Road with that rich bitter smell of hops emanating from it from time to time indicating that all is well in the world of beer production. You can get a group together and go for a walking tour around the brewery if you so wish. It is quite an interesting process and even though I've done it a few times in my life each time I do enjoy myself and I always am a little enamoured with them for their community spirit. They keep a rather twee, but good for the kids, fantasy land beside the brewery in a park area that comes to life at Christmas, and looks a little odd for the rest of the year. They also maintain a charity spot on Port Road where you can fill your water bottle - all the money goes to charity, and you get great quality local water. The walking tours are designed for groups of a minimum of 10 people on a pre-booking basis; you get to see (and smell) the raw materials used for brewing, the fermentation cellars, the brew house, keg handling and the amazing canning and bottling process. If you are not a group of ten people you can give them a call and see about tagging along with another group. One thing that you need to remember with kegs rolling about - the walking tour requires that you wear closed flat shoes, no thongs, no sandals, because of occupational Health and Safety.

Having grown up in the UK and enjoyed real ale for many years through CAMRA and such like it's disappointing that a new venue like this should charge $12 for a "pint" of beer for this can be best described as a metric pint, aka 375ml, whereas an imperial pint is about 550ml. In the UK you would pay around 4 pound for a 550ml pint of real ale - which is about $9. Why then do we have to be ripped off like this at the Big Shed - especially on opening day where you would think at least they would be offering specials. Shame on you - it's pure profiteering!
