To be honest, everything about Moo Brew is a bit unconventional. Like the fact the idea for the beer started with a bottle. Yep, David Walsh, the infamous Tasmanian gambling magnate and art collector, was travelling overseas when he found a bottle he liked, so naturally, he decided he’d build a brewery to fill it. As you do. The brewery was built at David's vineyard Moorilla Estate in Southern Tasmania, which he'd always referred to as Moo Land, and this formed the basis of his new brewery’s name – Moo Brew. Like the artwork of iconoclastic Australian artist John Kelly who was commissioned to create the labels (renowned for taking famous artworks and spinning them in his own distinct style). Similarly, when it came time to brew the beers, Moo Brew has been known from its inception for brewing traditional beer styles with some fundamental tweaks for a subtle twist on the classics. Moo Brew produce seven staple beers in can and bottle: a Pilsner, German-style Hefeweizen, an American Pale Ale, a Single Hop Tasmanian Pale, Mid Strength, American Dark Ale and Imperial Stout (or some call it the Velvet Sledgehammer). Throughout the year a suite of Limited Release beers also tend to pop up on tap around Tasmania, and sometimes in Melbourne and Sydney. You'll always find a Moo Brew at MONA (Museum of Old and New Art) either at the Moorilla Cellar Door or at one of the various Museum bars and restaurants.

Bay of Fires Wines was founded in the 1990s by a team of dedicated winemaking and viticultural professionals, who believed Tasmania would one day become the pre-eminent Australian region to produce cool-climate Tasmanian wines. The entire Bay of Fires team is focused on one singular passion – to share Tasmania's most outstanding wines with you. Their vision continues to rely on the search for the individual personalities found in every variety and vineyard. The team crafts alluring wines that are distinctively Tasmanian, without compromising on consistency or quality. The wines are produced from hand-picked Tasmanian fruit, specially selected for quality and character. Each fruit parcel is kept separate so it can be constantly assessed in order to capture its unique essence at precisely the right moment. And then, in the finest oak available, the fruit is given the freedom to let nature work its magic. The evidence of the alchemy of this winemaking practice can be experienced in each and every Bay of Fires Wine.
