Good Drinks is one of Australia's biggest indie brewing companies, with the ASX-listed group including the likes of Gage Roads, Atomic and Matso's.
If you'd like to play a role in making their beers, they're hiring in WA.
Job Description: Experienced Brewer
Good Drinks Australia is one of the country’s largest independent brewers. Home to several leading beer and drink brands, the Good Drinks family includes Gage Roads Brew Co, Matso’s Broome Brewery, Atomic Beer Project, Alby, Hello Sunshine and San Miguel.
It all started in 2005 with Gage Roads, which has grown to become one of Australia’s largest craft brewers. Named after the strip of ocean separating the port city of Fremantle and Rottnest Island off WA’s coast, we saw a lot of ourselves in this spot. So, we decided to name our brewery after it. It's a home to seagulls and sharks; surfers and swimmers; ships and sailors. A place where you can relax, explore, escape, or seek out adventure.
In 2018, we purchased Matso's Broome Brewery and launched our West Australian contemporary lager brand Alby. Most recently we brought to life our newest brand, Atomic Beer Project with a venue in Sydney. With these new brands in the stable, we created Good Drinks, to represent our independent Australian drinks company and our family of brands. Now you'll find our growing portfolio of award-winning drinks in quality liquor stores, bars & restaurants across the country.
