Rusty Sail

Rusty Sail is a magnificently balanced mid-strength Amber Ale, which uses 100% Australian grown grain to create a medium-bodied, malt-driven beer characterized by its rich copper colour and toffee-caramel sweetness. The rich flavour profile is balanced against a crisp dry finish on the palate and floral notes from Cascade, East Kent Goldings and Ella hops. You’ll be glad this delectable brew is mid-strength, at 3.5%, so you can come back for more without going ‘overboard’…. Brisbane Water was famous for its shipwrights from the 1820s through to 1950s. The surrounding hills provided the hardwoods, demand for quality vessels grew, the old hands mentored the newcomers and family businesses flourished producing all manner of ketches, schooners, ferries, launches, barges and pearlers…... Rusty Sail is named in honour of this proud heritage and the fact that some locals say they still hear the rusty old rigging of the ghost ships plying these waters on a dark, windy night.
