In 1960 my family began brewing Australia’s favorite ginger beer and root beer, in the rich farmlands around the rural Queensland town of Bundaberg. Since then we’ve continued following the traditions that made us so successful, so very little has changed in the process, the ingredients, and the time and effort that go into each bottle. In 1985 the business passed into the hands of the next generation and under Cliff Fleming, Chairman and Master Brewer, a new era of expansion and development began. Products such as Lemon Lime & Bitters, were introduced, as well as diet options and the sophisticated flavors of the Sparkling Selection – Guava, Blood Orange, Pink Grapefruit and Peach. New overseas markets were opened up and now our products are being exported to over 30 different countries across the globe. But while we’ve added to our family over the years, and created a long line of refreshingly different beverages, we’ll always be particularly proud of our ginger and root beer brews.
