A row of beer taps on a wooden wall
Brewed on the estate since 2016
Vinecroft Brew Co. · Taproom & brewhouse

Grain, hops & a long wooden bar.

Ten taps poured ten metres from the tanks they were brewed in. Crisp lagers, hazy IPAs and barrel-aged stouts that borrow a little from the winery next door.

Grain to glass

Five steps, one room

Our brewhouse sits behind a glass wall in the taproom, so you can watch the mash while you drink the last one.

  1. I

    Mill & mash

    Estate barley and a little rye, milled on brew day and steeped at 66°C.

  2. II

    Boil & hop

    Sixty minutes with bittering hops, then a whirlpool of aroma hops.

  3. III

    Ferment

    Ten days for ales, five weeks cold for our lagers.

  4. IV

    Rest & age

    Some beers borrow our wine barrels for six to eighteen months.

  5. V

    Pour

    Straight from the bright tanks to your glass, ten metres away.

What the regulars say

The taproom quiz is chaos in the best way. Cloud Orchard hazy is the reason we keep coming back.
Dev MalhotraTaproom regular
We booked the cellar tour on a whim and left with a case of the Syrah and a dinner reservation. Best Saturday of the year.
Nadia & TomVisitors from the coast
Sat at the long table for the harvest dinner. Candles, rows of vines, and a Pinot I still think about.
