With the weather slowly taking a turn, we thought we’d include some easy drinking dark beers in this month’s box, but also some great beers for those sunny afternoons to celebrate the start of “park beers” season! (Yes, it’s a thing). Find a take on a classic Aussie style, a world-renowned Belgian brewery and an Old School IPA!
What's in the box:
2x | Rocky Ridge • Juicy Mid
Mid-Strength Hazy Pale Ale | 3.5% | Jindong, WA
A middy that doesn’t lack in hop flavour! Taking the best of Rocky Ridge’s team-favourite Jindong Juicy and taking the ABV down without compromising in quality. Expect a low bitterness with tropical, melon and citrus notes.

2x | Philter • Old Ale
Aussie Old | 4.5% | Marrickville, NSW
Inspired by the Tooheys classic, this Aussie Old (not to be confused with an English Old Ale) is an approachable and easy-drinking dark ale with a light body and a nice malty roast finish. Not many breweries will dive into this style, so it’s a rare treat!

2x | The Mill • Cracking Lager
American Light Lager | 4.0% | Castlemaine, VIC
The Collingwood legends are celebrating one year of having taken over and reopening the classic Rock & Roll venue the Bendigo Hotel, this beer is a best-seller in their new house! Fuelled by rock & metal and inspired in the easy drinking USA beers. Get cracking!

2x | Rodenbach • Fruitage
Fruit Beer | 3.9% | Roeselare, Vlaams, Belgium
From the world-renowned Rodenbach brewery, best known for their Flanders-style Red Ales, we have their most approachable beer style in the market. A cherry fruit beer that can even be poured over ice, as it’s juicy, sweet and slightly sour. Absolute banger!

1x | Bright • Kuraidesu
Japanese Dark Lager | 5.0% | Bright, VIC
Brewed with some special Akoya hops, developed by the Sapporo brewery in Japan, this beer channels the energy of Tokyo streets and the cheer-filled Izakayas at night. Great on its own, and absolutely incredible paired with some Yakitori (charcoal grilled skewers).

1x | Bojak • Classic C's
West Coast Double IPA | 6.7% | Dandenong, VIC
An IPA that takes us back to the IPAs of old with a slight modern twist. Using the classic Piney, Citrusy and Dank combo of Chinook, Centennial and Columbus, but with a lighter malt base and without the excessive bitterness, for a balanced but flavourful ale.
