We checked out another brewery, Driftwood Brewery, which happened to be kitty corner to Hoyne Brewing Company. Didn’t even realize this the first time we were in this area.
Sign out front pointing you in the right direction.
Their entrance is a little non-discrete but just look for the door to the right.
They’re open Monday to Saturday (11:00am to 6:00pm).
The taproom is cool with lots of different merchandise spread throughout.
There’s glassware, posters, t-shirts ($25.00), tanks, hoodies ($50.00), hats ($24.00), toques ($20.00), fishing lures, bottle/keychain openers, cards, hydroflask growlers ($65.00) and pint glasses ($26.00).
They had 6 flavours on tap so we tried all of them ($5.00 for a flight).
They also had 8 types of bottles in their beer fridge.
We ended up buying two (Naughty hildegard ESB and Cry me a river gose).
Bottles were very reasonable ($6.70 each).
Arcus pilsner
One of their seasonal beers.
White bark witbier
Nice light summery beer.
New growth pale ale
Naughty hildegard ESB
Nice guava and citrus undertones.
Fat tug IPA
This is their most popular beer. Similar to Hoyne’s dark matter but much lighter in flavour. Quite hoppy.
Pead belgian
This one was part of their brewery series and they only had it on tap. We would have got this but didn’t have our growler with us.
Defintely worth checking out! This area is a great spot to grab some beers and ice cream.
