Meet our brewer, Keith Grice. Keith's many years studying and teaching Chemistry at the University of Newcastle give him an excellent understanding of the brewing process and the ability to share both his passion and his knowledge with the breweries' many visitors. Keith has lived in the Hunter Valley for over 20 years and been a fan of Hunter Beers since his first taste. He invites you to visit our brewery to share his passion and have a chat about all things beer.

At the Hunter Beer Company, we brew a unique range of hand-crafted beers onsite. All our beers are brewed from 100% natural ingredients with no preservatives used. Our hops have been sourced from the best hop growing regions worldwide, with the hop varieties used being true to the style of the beers that we brew. We have also begun growing our very own hops.

You are sure to find a Hunter brew that suits your beer palate..

	Hunter Kölsch is a refreshing golden ale originating in style from the Cathedral city of Cologne with a biscuity-honey taste and subtle fruit sweetness, making it the ideal beer in summer. It is the perfect aperitif, often served as an accompaniment to canapés. The pleasant passionfruit and pineapple flavours are well matched with light snacks such as salt n pepper squid, chicken skewers and brushetta. Alcohol content of 4.5% Alc/Vol.
	Hunter Lager is a European style lager using a combination of the finest malts from Australia and Europe. Hunter Lager's malt sweetness is nicely balanced with the cleansing herbaceous bitterness of a mixture of European hops sourced from Germany and the Czech Republic. Ideally matched with spicey hot curries, juicy steaks and burgers. Perfect match to most Thai and Indian cuisine. Alcohol content of 4.8% Alc/Vol.
	An American style Pale Ale using 3 different hop varieties, Hunter Pale Ale is a unique and refreshing beer with a fresh, citrus spicey flavour that is balanced with biscuity-toffee influences from the specialty malts used. With its fruity character and robust flavour, Hunter Pale Ale is perfect for every occasion. Rich gamey meat dishes including duck and spicy Indian cuisine especially compliment this beer. Alcohol content of 5.2% Alc/Vol.
	Witbier or White Beer is pale golden, tart, refreshing Belgian style wheat beer that is cloudy in appearance with a fine white head. It is a light flavoured beer with low bitterness. One of the world's oldest styles of beer, Hunter Witbier had classic coriander and bitter orange peel flavours with a clean dry finish. The crisp zing comes from the wheat and the lovely level of carbonation, making it the perfect summer beer. Although the brewer might not agree Witbier can also be served with a slice of fresh lemon to enhance the citrus character. Terrific with lightly spiced seafood and most Thai dished and heaven with cheese! Alcohol content of 4.6% Alc/Vol.
	A refreshing Ginger Beer with a crisp clean ginger flavour. Ginger is known as a natural relaxant, so this beer makes the ideal drink after a hard day's work! Ginger beer is a great accompaniment to most Asian dishes including honey lemon chicken, Mongolian lamb and sweet and sour pork. Pasta lovers, might like to know that the crisp ginger flavour cuts deliciously through creamy pasta dishes like penne bosciola and spaghetti carbonara. Alcohol content of 4.5% Alc/Vol.
	Hunter Bock is a dark German Lager originating in style from the Bavarian Region of Germany with delicious hints of caramel, roasted coffee and chocolate. A robust beer that cries out for hearty food and a little bit of chocolate. Hunter Bock is the ideal drink to go with your comfort food, so try it with roast chicken and potatoes, slow roasted lamb shanks on creamy mash and of course double chocolate mud cake with lashings of king island cream. Alcohol content of 5.5% Alc/Vol.

According to Keith, beer reflects a broad range of styles each with its own flavours, and to experience their depth and complexity is a journey of taste sensation. Enter the Wonderful World of beer; there are no limits to the pleasures of complementing and contrasting beer flavours, merely the limits of our imagination.

Keith invites beer enthusiasts to come and sample his beer awards entries on site and enjoy a tour and tasting of his brewery. All of the beer is brewed daily on the premises in copper vats and served straight to Potters Hotel bars. So come and try before you buy!
