Ripper gig he has set up with some mates, seems to be fairly popular in the shire anyone tried the product? If yes is it any good?
Not a big sharks fan but a good beer or 8 never goes astray.Good luck to them I reckon.
Good on him. I’ve got something on there in a few weeks so will give it a go. I don’t mind XPAs if I drink lighter beers. The rocks brewing company are making it for them until they can produce their own and they make good beers generally

Seems like a lot of sportspeople have had success doing the same. Mick fanning and a few other surfers sold balter to carlton for something like $70-$150million and each founder got about $4 million. Not a bad option haha

Fk didn't realise Balter was set up by Mick Fanning and co. Very good beer!
That said $70-150m is a very big range haha

That's awesome. I really enjoy their beer. Good on them for setting it up as their surfing careers wind down.

Didn't know breweries made beers for other breweries. Perfect for starting out.

Interesting, they went with a name with broad appeal that is easily identifiable to a lot of people - not too extravagant or obscure, and it seems to have worked in very quick time. Other local breweries like Shark Island (local surf spot) and Sunday Road have been around for a while, but they could be pretty much anywhere in Australia. They've also had success but I doubt as quickly.

Not sure what everyone thinks(some haters i see lol)but yes they seem to have established their business well and maybe had some luck along the way, likely their stocks will only rise if they open up a brewery in the shire with the customary shopfront/bar.
Haven't been there for many years but back in the day Cronulla was an alright place too, i always liked hitting the beach there even though it was a big hike from Bankstown :laughing: same same re: going to shark park(was called endeavour field way back then), the dogs and sharks used to have some great club games when ET was to the fore in their side.
