darwin brewery
jay r. is drinking an original flag porter 1825 by darwin brewery at albatross & co .
established in 1997 darwin brewery has grown steadily to become one of the most respected micro - breweries in the north of england .
one mile brewery is committed to building a reputation behind easy drinking craft beer designed for the darwin climate, brimming with flavour .
and true to their beginnings, the brewery is still called one mile brewery after the shed in stuart park where it all started .
the fledgling brewery quickly outgrew the shed, and stu and bardy’s passion for beer made them keenly aware that darwin was lacking locally produced beer. this spurred them on to try and develop their own commercial micro - brewery, and so the process began to transform one mile brewery from a hobby to a business .
brewers: discover our brewer resources here. are you affiliated with this brewery ?
darwin’s first beers were produced on a very small 18 gallon system based at brewlab at the university of sunderland. three years later the brewery expanded to crook, county durham with the acquisition of the hodge’s brewery and brewed there until 2002 when two factors resulted in a move back to sunderland .
back. you have a great brewery here and we are so glad your are in bradenton .
my first time at an american brewery it was very cool. kevin was a great guide and very informativ

darwin’s craft beer scene remains modest. partly, no doubt, this is because darwin’s drinking culture has historically been centred around one iconic figure: the darwin stubby. these two - litre bottles of nt draught were the staple of top end drinking for more than 50 years. but the practicalities behind the infamous darwin stubby – it was retired last year by carlton united breweries, along with nt draught altogether – probably better explain why starting a microbrewery is difficult. the oversized bottles were originally designed with consideration to the logistics of shipping bottles long distances .

when we published our series of best new beers features for 2017, there was one thing missing: an entry for the northern territory. with a new brewery opening soon, that may change in 2018. for now, an update from nt' s original craft brewery, one mile. read on
all of our beers are brewed on site at our facility on the banks of the river wear, sunderland. darwin beers range from our oldest brew, evolution - a copper coloured bitter - to flag porter - a historic porter recreated using an 1850s recipe and yeast recovered from an 1825 shipwreck! whatever your palate, darwin has the brew for you .
in the 1980s, the acclaimed travel writer jan morris visited darwin. “never did a town greet its visitors more boisterously, ” she said. “never did the beer flow quite so fast. ”
one mile stands almost alone in the top end craft beer scene. located in palmerston – a little ways out of downtown darwin – stu and bardy have been conjuring up crafty creations since 2012. their beers are now on tap at seven locations in darwin, including several restaurants. they may be the only microbrewery on tap exclusively at a hilton in australia; here in darwin, their beer commands the only tap at this hotel, and recently they were part of an event where their brews were paired with local oysters. it just goes to show that things work differently up here .
the brewery moved to larger commercial premises in palmerston and the brewing set - up was greatly expanded. the brewing processes have also been refined to ensure a consistent, quality product is made .
this brewery is walking distance to the other brewery i visited on my brewery day in bradenton. also, fyi, it' s across the street from the pirates spring training stadium. i happened to go on a day the game was going on and was ending, so naturally there were a ton of people at darwin. it wasn' t too bad though. the brewery is small, but they have a good amount of patio space and lots of people were standing and hanging out. they have tables, picnic tables, ect for people to sit. they also have a few games for patrons to play. the beers were delicious, i can' t recall the name, but there is one that is aged in a whiskey barrel and omg - - only need one of those. that' s how strong it is. restroom facilities were clean, staff was nice. they also had a german food truck there (delish! !) if this was closer to me, i' d be a frequent customer .
he’s talking about darwin’s drinking scene. drinkers here, i’m reminded, are all about cheap, flavourless, easy - to - gulp beers. winning locals to craft beer is tough. discussion is bandied over the table as to why that is .
so far, one mile’s beers are only available by the keg, but but they’re looking at turning a hand to bottling later in 2016. (despite fairly regular requests, they don’t seem to have any intention of reproducing the darwin stubby. )
this week is kind of a big deal! wed, 2 / 1 kaleigh baker & kristopher james living room on the lawn at darwin brewing co. thu, 2 / 2 darwins finch trivia league w / steve - o entertainment fri, 2 / 3 beartoe at darwin brewing # getonmylawn sat, 2 / 4 treedomm and drafts for hounds with hams! if you like stouts, try our big deal imperial stout (10. 3% abv, with roasted barley, dark chocolate, malt, and hops). $ 4. 00 8oz drafts all week !
el dorado - skuuuuuuuunky! !! darwin' s jade - mellow, bitter, more - or - less drinkable farmhouse porter - pretty smooth but not much flavor circa 1926 - again not much flavour, but a light beer that' s easy to drink cool atmosphere and really nice staff .
now four years in, one mile has been joined in the last month by another top end brewery, purple mango. purple mango’s agenda is to brew small batches on site at their cafe and wine bar in marrakai, on the road to kakadu, and again have aimed for beers with higher fermentation temperatures, and refreshing finishes, with a steam ale, belgian pale ale, a mango beer and a fresh ginger beer all in the works. purple mango also intends to start bottling, with a couple of outlets in darwin interested in stocking their products .
another trip to sarasota and another local brewery visit! we planned to check out darwin' s brewery on our last visit but our trip up to bradenton / anna maria island ended up not coinciding with a day that they were open! their outdoor area is adorable and i loved it as soon as we walked up from the parking lot. inside the bar had a couple empty stools so we hopped on up. we had had a lot of their main offerings dining at darwins on 4th in sarasota so we stuck to some small batch offerings which were great. i especially loved the unite red hot which had a hint of pepper - y heat. we also picked up a bottle of their collab with cigar city which we drank a couple nights later and it was delicious! can' t wait to go back !
although the brewery is small and in a weird location, i had to give it 5 stars because of the reason it exists... good beer. it' s located next to mckechnie field (the pittsburgh pirates have spring training here). the parking lot is in the back of the brewery and is rather small. i enjoyed a hidalgo and my friend tried the ayawasca. both were amazing! the quality of the beers is really high and that' s why i feel this brewery deserves 5 stars. the tasting room is very small, although they do have an outdoor / indoor seating arrangement. there was one bartender on staff on the particular wednesday night we visited and she was very attentive and kind. i' d go back if it were closer to my home! !
we stopped here on our way to st. pete for the weekend. nice tasting room but it is kind of small. we got there just after it opened at 4: 00 pm on a friday. there were only 3 other people in there. evidently, the brewery is
andean inspired .
the flavors in the beers are focused on peruvian spices, peppers, etc. they have several core beers: a west coast ipa, helles lager, german pils and a tangerine wheat. i had the summadaze ipa (west coast ipa). it was crisp and clean, not too malty with a nice hop flavor. i also tried the tangerine wheat (too bready for me). decent place. best brewery in bradenton in my opinion .
i meet stuart and brady on a friday evening at lola’s pergola (pictured at top), on darwin’s tourist seaport strip of cullens bay. the bar’s theme was recently described in a national publication as “carnival - on - acid”, and that’s not a bad description. the one mile fellas have just dropped off their kegs and are having a beer and a burger with one of the proprietors, a gentleman named mulga matt, when i meet them .
the colourful lola’s pergola is the best - priced and best - vibed place to find one mile brews, standing alongside others on the beer list such as prancing pony’s pale ale or matso’s mango beer. down at darwin’s visitor - friendly waterfront, the precinct taps three one mile beers: their rdo bright ale, no limits ipa (using centennial, mosaic and galaxy hops), and otto’s red ale. each of these has a local name that decidedly veers away from kitschiness – no tacky crocs or goannas in these labels. but, of course, trying to win the devotion of local drinkers remains the dilemma of the darwin craft brewers, and, while you' ll also find the likes of young henrys, stone & wood and prancing pony there, most of the craft offerings at the precinct (pictured below) come from the big breweries: 4 pines, james squire, little creatures and so on .
i' ve had some of their drafts around bradenton but on a perfect saturday we made it a point to visit the source. excellent brews at a perfect location with a great mix of indoor and outdoor seating. very family and dog friendly environment right across from the ballpark. they feature your typical brewery set up with some tvs, bags and jenga for entertainment. also a variety of visiting food trucks lined up for set times each day. looking forward to coming back with some friends .
fantastic brewery located right by the baseball stadium. summerdayz is probably the best locally produced ipa full of hoppy goodness with great flavor balance, but there are many other great beers on the menu, from wheat beers thru porters. the bar staff are fantastic, knowledgeable, friendly, professional & super customer centric. food is available to order from local vendors & or food trucks that park at darwins. music is available frequently & especially we love trivia night on thursdays, great fun, great competition
stuart and bardy have no qualms about admitting that it’s been a hard, slow process; but with the support of their partners, the one mile brewery continues to grow, and alongside it, the opportunities for darwinians to drink tasty beers grows too. in the meantime – at least on a friday night at a carnival - on - acid bar, over a couple of their finest beers and a good burger – they seem to be enjoying themselves. they certainly gave me an old - fashioned beery and boisterous welcome to the top end .
this is a cute little brewery in bradenton that i' ve been wanting to see for a while. after hiking at emerson point park, i decided it was time. the parking is behind the building which confused me for a second, but once i figured that out, i was in for a treat. the bartender was nice and helpful as we decided the beers for our flight. i enjoyed the beers i had, and i liked the intimate feel of the place. as people filed in, they sat at the bar so it was nice and cozy. i will definitely be back !
i’m visiting darwin for the first time and i quite agree. normally the most abstemious of beverage connoisseurs, i find myself suddenly drawn to one or another hotel porch with a pot of something (anything !) at midday. maybe two pots. maybe three. the bartender is almost invariably a young lady from ireland, or northern ireland. another lazy - afternoon drinker will probably start a conversation with you, and if not, you can stretch out australia’s finest example of print media, the nt news, or eavesdrop on passers - by as they chatter in indonesian, greek, laragiya, spanish, hindi, mandarin, thai, dutch or english. it’s all very productive and wonderful .
this place is truly remote. it’s a small port city, and it’s unbelievably distant from the clustered population centres of south - eastern australia; its nearest urban centres are in fact spread through the archipelagos of south east asia. it’s about as close to kuala lumpur as it is sydney. so freighting anything from
south
– and that’s almost anywhere else in australia, mind you – costs a significant amount. and pretty much everything needs to be brought in: hops and grains come from thousands of kilometres away. on the other hand, while most of the territory’s water is sourced from bores, darwin has good surface water: the best in australia, i’m told by stuart brown and bardy bayram of one mile brewing company .

we were headed to another place just down the road. you know the place, no parking, we’ll charge you for valet or we’ll charge you to park in our lot. and, oh, you have to wait for us to get around t
ous place. there were quite a few people there, but neither parking nor a seat was a problem .
after a couple samples, they had this great little wit that surprised me. my friend saw the german pilsner and it was love at first taste. the ompah band was amusing and encouraged
then, looking over the schnitzel menu, the cook explained in his german accent what they were out of. we chose the biergarten
brats and instantly knew why they were out of other dishes. it was real, i’ve had it in germany years ago and it was delicious .
oh, i can’t forget the german cheese with pretzels. it didnt survive the short wait for our brats to arrive .
ss, when i head into bradenton next time, i won’t detour. this is much better !
i really enjoy the team, ambiance and brew at darwins. i am a member of the band that plays music there on monday nights and during the breaks i enjoy a pint of their pirata pilsner - it' s full bodie
. sarah and dj keep us and the audience of primarily musicians very satisfied .
food is also available through epic eats - a food truck that sits on the darwins property. they have a great menu and a set of pens that you can use to add a bit of art to their vehicle .
our first visit and what a treat. awesome staff, great beer selection ,
and a fun food truck. we both loved the llama mama milk stout and i thought the guava ale was great. thank you and we will be

to perfect their brew, stu completed a post - graduate brewing course at the university of ballarat .
their experimentation with brewing quickly became a passion. as their experience grew, stu and bardy began to tinker with their set - up to enable them to make bigger quantities and better quality beer .

after a very frustrating and long day, we stopped in a for a drink or two. the parking lot is in the back and for a few minutes, we thought we had arrived before they opened. no, they had just opened and it was a slow afternoon. we ordered two flights to cover the board and i can honestly say, there wasn' t a beer i didn' t like. the charapa was a standout but i' m still a big fan of the llama mama milk stout. they also had some sours / fruit beers on tap at well to keep my main man happy. i love the latin influence in the beers and the complex flavors. our bartender was very helpful and put whatever football game we wanted on the tv. as people filed in, the bar rounded out and we felt very cozy and at home. i now follow them on social media so i don' t miss a thing! i' m looking forward to future trips. i highly recommend stopping in here no matter what your palate calls for !
love the llama mama love the jade it' s all i got to say... . but i will keep writing bc yelp is making me in order to post. the german food truck is delicious. that jeaguer schnitzel is delicious. get it !
very nice space with a huge window that lets you see the brewing floor from the taproom. beer garden is a really nice space. staff were friendly and knowledgeable. kid friendly. cards against humanity for grown ups and apples to apples for kids / families. they don' t serve food. just across the street from the stadium. llama mama milk stout was great (and available in cans !) and charapa was a very solid porter. i am not a pilsner fan but the bartender offered us a taste of the snowbees pils and it was incredible - very light, delicate, honey and flowers flavor. i was super impressed. flight paddles were the coolest i have ever seen. love the logo, love the vibe, will definitely come back .
first off, i want to say that i love the setup of the bar and outside area. that is just fine. the issue that i have is that they serve nothing that i cared for. the service was great and the joint was clean. parking does suck, however. bottom line: try it for yourself. i won' t be back until their lineup changes .
really good sampling of beers. not many customers and the bar tender was very friendly and knowledgeable. had a great time !
this monthly artisan craft, food and beer event is a highlight of bradenton. don' t miss it! !! everything from polpo' s amazing wood - fired artisan pizzas out of a converted old truck to artisanal goat cheese, hungarian / romanian

trendy looking place with friendly staff. parking is very limited so difficult when it is busy. i didn' t care for the selection of beers, but they let you sample before choosing a glass which is nice .
great beer, atmosphere and location. visiting from out of town and we were very pleased with the selection of craft beers .
you are supposed to be open 5 days per week. however, we come by on a sunday, a day you are scheduled to be open but you are not? ?? ? as a business you owe it to your customers to abide by your schedule .
very pleased with the creative beer selection here. they know how to use their hops well. summerdaze was an excellent west coast style ipa. we went before the baseball game, as the stadium is directly across the street. played some bean bag toss, and had great green fried tomatoes and truffle parmesan fries. highly recommended! !

“oh, it’s fucked, ” mulga says in a gravelly voice. “it’s fucked here. ”
“they don’t go to melbourne, ” mulga reckons. mulga is a memorable character himself: somehow a figure of both reticence and exuberance, he also runs monte’s in alice springs, which i’m assured has a great tap list too .
it’s been a memorable adventure for stuart and bardy, who have known each other for more than two decades. having met in a university context, the two brewers – as well as their partners – seem to form an ideal complement. it, science, law and marketing form the professional background for one mile brewing. although they face some complications with their site in palmerston, the building is an inheritance from bardy’s family – turkish migrants from the days before cyclone tracy hit the town .
cleverly, stu and bardy have come up with their
beer response unit
– a mobile bar with their kegs, available for hire for parties and events around the top end. (it unfortunately doesn’t make an appearance at the famous mindil beach market, because, strangely, the market isn’t licensed). with limited bars opening taps for microbrewers, it’s another way to get in touch with punters. their red ale has also been used by a local pie maker, blended with gravy for a chunky beef pie .
update: as of 2018, purple mango was closed with the owners looking for buyers .
the n. t. government has thrown a fair whack of money to purple mango to make this happen, so there’s certainly some recognition that the craft beer scene is due to grow. the transient nature of the top end population is something of an obstacle, but the huge numbers of tourists passing through the town provide a great opportunity too. recent reports indicate that wine consumption is starting to compete with beer - guzzling. at least one new venue due to appear throughout the upcoming dry season has contacted one mile about having their beers available, and a brewpub is scheduled to establish itself in a central location later in the year .

porter, a beer that would become the first nationally popular beer style in britain, was first brewed in 1722 in shoreditch, london. as the legend goes, it was commonplace for patrons to request two or three different ales to be combined in their glass to strike their preferred flavor (there were more beer aficionados back then). eventually, an innkeeper named ralph harwood developed a beer that embodied the virtues of each component beer, and he called his brew “entire. ” it swiftly became very popular with the working men at the docks of london (or “porters” as they were known, yielding a name that finally stuck) .
within a few years porter had become the most popular style of beer in britain. saloons would offer accommodations to working men with cheap cuts of beef and, of course, porter by the pint. in 1799, guinness switched entirely (no pun intended) to producing porter, which became the beer of the irish working man. in fact, it was porter that would ultimately give rise to a variation known today as the very popular guinness draught, an irish dry stout (there is some debate over where to draw the line between porters and stouts, or even to draw the line at all). but despite its massive popularity, the original style all but vanished by 1973, replaced mainly by the stout variations created by guinness and others.
