Two Metre Tall • Australia
From the brewer:
‘Charlemont’ is the name of our 600 ha farm on the banks of the Derwent River in southern Tasmania. Just a short 40 minute drive from the heart of Hobart along the road towards the north west. With just 20 inches average annual rainfall, our farm provides some rural challenges. Fortunately the plentiful Derwent River provides a bountiful water supply.
We are a stone’s throw from the historic hop fields at Bushy Park.
We grow grain, hops & raise our herd of Black Angus/Wagyu cattle.
The old shearing shed was converted to house our brewery back in 2008. The brewhouse itself used to be the St. Ives brewery in Battery Point, Hobart, installed back in the late 1980s. Rehoused on our farm, the old kettle & tanks are lovingly nurtured to life to help us on our journey to find a unique estate brewed beer.
