After many years of research (and many samples of beer) the decision was made by Janine Rose to build a craft brewery on site at Otway Estate. Although a winery, Otway Estate has embraced beer and brewing as much as the love of fine wine.
Blessed with the availability of pure Otway rainwater, we brew all of our beers with this 'gift from the gods'. It is well known that you need good water to make good beer and there's nothing better than water from the lush rainforest.
The brewery was commissioned in February 2007 with the release of the first two beers took place in March 2007.
At Prickly Moses Handcrafted Beer, we believe that beer is diverse in its colour, aroma and flavour and is not just limited to "yellow fizzy stuff".
We create beers to match an appearance, aroma and flavour profile - not a budget - so we use the best possible ingredients we can find. Our repetoire of exciting beer recipes continuously grows and we're always keen to try something new.
We also believe that food is an important part of the craft beer experience and we're always trying to pair good food with our great beer.
We hope you enjoy our beer as much as we enjoy brewing it for you.
