STYLE: Hoppy Brown Ale

IN A NUTSHELL: Malty, nutty, zesty and pungent. Smashable. 

Adelaide Roller Derby and the Wheaty go way back; we’ve proudly bankrolled the league since its inception, we host Raw Meat recruitment drives, Team Zebra debriefs, innumerable post-bout shenanigans and harbour a growing collection of Adelady ‘Skate of Origin’ silverware in the Front Bar. We fill our bout day Corporate Box to overflowing and admire Derby’s tight little puns from scaffold seats...The Wheaty loves ADRD.

And now we have the means to do what we’ve wanted to do for years: brew a beer in honour of this fearsome league...

Style Brut IIPA

In a Nutshell Hoppy, spritzy, dry. Gentle giant.

As excellent exponents of dry, heavily-hopped IPAs, first-time Good Beer Wheaty Collaborators Alex (Three Weavers) and Geoff (Buxton Brewery) were keen to brew an iteration of IPA none of us had brewed before; ‘Brut IPA’...

Style Wet Hop IPA

In a Nutshell Wet hoppy,hoppy, hoppy. Oi! Oi! Oi!

Style Kettle Sour Mixed Berry Saison

In a nutshell Tangy, berry and smooth. The Hills.

A mixed berry version of our Lacto-innoculated Kettle Sour Saison. The plan was to brew a fresh, delicate farmhouse ale with an old school malt bill — raw and flaked grains that ‘a farmer sweeping out their farm floor at the end of harvest’ might find — using a not-so-traditional kettle souring technique which we’d temper with the addition of local honey and whole local berries...

STYLE: (India) Pale Ale

IN A NUTSHELL: Tropical, wine-like, dry and bitey. It figures.

The plan with Irony was to brew a lighter, drier, more delicate ale than Team Australia; one that straddled the Pale/IPA divide and was a little less shouty with Hops...

Style: Kettle Sour Saison

In a Nutshell: Spicy, aromatic, tart & dry. More tang than pucker.

A kettle-soured, Lacto innoculated, weekend-long collaboration with (then) Moo Brewer Scott Overdorf...

Style All-Oz Hop Flower IPA

In a Nutshell An all-Flower version of Team Australia IPA

In the complex and often confusing world of Goodies and Baddies, we all need a little Joint Purpose, a single Team that everyone can get behind... 

Enter ‘Leafy Team Oz’, our first all OZ Hop Flower IPA...

Style Session East Coast IPA

IN A NUTSHELL Juicy, creamy and smooth. Hops and glory.

The task we set for the latest SA Brew Club’s Summer Comp was significantly broader and less bastardly than the last: to brew a ‘Session IPA’, ie any style of IPA as long as it clocked no more than 5% ABV and was identifiably IPA. Kieren Vercoe brewed two cracker Session East Coast IPAs to take out the prize: the opportunity to brew a scaled-up version of his beer on the Wheaty Brewing Corps’ kit...

Style Milk Oat Stout

In A Nutshell Milky, Oaty, Roasty. Sweet nourishment.

We were keen to brew a Sweet Stout and couldn’t decide between a Milk or an Oatmeal style - so we thought: why not both? 

Style Oaty Brown Ale

In a Nutshell A Brown(er) version of our hoppy, Oaty Red Ale 'Blood Oats'.

Style Rye IPA

In a Nutshell Spicy, bitter, grapefruit-pith. Our turn.

The return leg of our collaboration with Bierhaus Al - two years after our original brew with him up at Lobethal.

Essentailly, Ryewaka is a beer designed around a cheesy pun...

Style Brown Porter

In a Nutshell Malty, chocolatey, jammy and tart. Blood Plum.

Satsuma is the queen of Plums. Dark red, fleshy, sweet and tart; jammy and sharp. A perfect candidate for Berliner Weisse. Though we decided to pair it with something altogether darker...

Style German(ish) Pils

In a nutshell Strawlike, herbal and dry. Tell me why.

Style Gose

In a nutshell Light, fresh, salty & sour. Easy Gose.

Style All OZ-Hop IPA

In a Nutshell Hoppy, hoppy, hoppy! Oi! Oi! Oi!

In the complex and often confusing world of Goodies and Baddies, we all need a little Joint Purpose, a single Team that everyone can get behind....

Enter 'Team Australia', our first of many IPAs bursting with homegrown Hops.

STYLE Russian Imperial Stout

IN A NUTSHELL Decadent, rich and far from over...

Style Munich Dunkel

In a Nutshell Dark, malty, herbal & smooth. Nicht so traditionell.

To say that collaborating with the oldest continuously brewing Brewery in the world was an honour is somewhat of an understatement. Weihenstephaner Braumeister Tobias Zollo is not only one of the best technical Brewers on the planet, crucially for us, he’s also a good sport. So with 978 years Brewing experience between us, we set about having ein bisschen bier Spaß...
