High quality indie beer, fairly priced, and much enjoyed!
Feb 25, 2025
Brewing great beer has never been easy, and in recent years, it’s only become tougher.
With the excise tax on beer rising every six months since 1983—jumping a staggering 20% since 2020—independent brewers across Australia are feeling the squeeze. Yet, despite the challenges, we’re committed to doing what we do best: brewing high-quality indie beer at a fair price for the community that keeps us going.
Every pint you enjoy, every tinnie you crack, and every shout at the bar supports independent breweries like ours. It keeps local businesses thriving, jobs in the industry alive, and ensures that craft beer remains diverse, exciting, and accessible.
The Independent Brewers Association (IBA) are working hard to champion the indie brewing industry, advocating for fairer taxation and policies that support small brewers. Through initiatives like #SaveIndieBeer, they’re making noise where it matters—pushing for changes that help independent breweries survive and continue bringing you the beers you love.
So, next time you raise a Beerfarm glass, know that you’re not just enjoying a bloody good brew—you’re backing the future of independent beer in Australia. Cheers to that!
