Bad Shepherd Brewing Co Peanut Butter Porter
It sounds like a tongue twister, but the taste is anything but. Inspired by the love of Buckeye Candy (those peanut butter fudge balls dipped in chocolate), the Bad Shepherd Brewing Co Peanut Butter Porter tastes exactly as it sounds: a luscious porter brewed with chocolate malt, chocolate wheat and hazelnuts finished in a creamy, full-bodied beer. Despite the name, this beer doesn’t contain peanuts, just peanut flavour with hazelnuts and lactose.

Big Shed Brewing Co Golden Stout Time
Hunter Valley has their own brewery, and the same can be said for Barossa Valley where the Big Shed Brewery Co launched. Once it grew too large, they relocated to Adelaide where the crew brew plenty of crafty concoctions. Like their Golden Stout Time, a tasty nod to Golden Gaytimes. Expect a hearty stout infused with toffee and honeycomb. After the first sip, you’ll be transported to a long-forgotten summer in your childhood. One of the top beers for autumn!

With a golden hazy colour, it’s like a cool sunset on the beach.
