Green Beacon Brewing Co

Brisbane


In a cavernous warehouse, Green Beacon brews some of Brisbane's best beers. The liquid beauties ferment in vats behind the long bar before flowing through the taps and onto your grateful palate. Choose from nine core beers, a house cider, or seasonal specials like a blood-orange IPA. Decent bites include fresh local seafood, and there's typically a guest food truck out front.
