Bruny Island Beer Co

Started in 2016, the brewery occupies repurposed dairy milk vats behind the cheesery at Bruny Island Cheese Co's Adventure Bay cellar door. Head Brewer Luke Rutland makes open-fermented, bottle-conditioned beers — around six regulars plus seasonal releases — drawing on locally grown Tasmanian ingredients. The proximity to an active cheesery isn't incidental; cross-pollination between the two operations is the point.
