Barrow Boys Brewing

we have established backgrounds in brewing and hospitality. for one reason or another, we were all looking for a new challenge and were brought together by our mutual friend ross, who helped us get the barrow rolling. we hit it off because of our shared love of melbourne, craftsmanship and more importantly, beer. we love good quality, balanced beer. it’s what we stand for. our name came from exploring around north melbourne, where we first planned to build our brewery. the historical markets were vital to these parts and so we started digging a little deeper. we soon found a reference to the ‘barrow boys’ and how they were the original market vendors, selling fresh local produce to the community. they were always ready to roll up their sleeves and get the job done, but also let themselves have fun along the way.
