RE: Australian Beer Review - #37 - Little Creatures Bright Ale
Darn, I was totally hoping that Little Creatures was an independent brewery but alas! They are owned by Lion, who is owned by Kirin.
I've only been to Sydney (and Ettalong Beach) for a few days but I noticed that the typical bar is nothing but Lion brands, despite a small brewery being just a few miles away. Have you noticed the same thing?
not independent but they still crank out some decent brews - can be a minefield trying to work out who owns who in the brewery world
Sounds like Australia needs an "Independent" label like here in the US. 😉🍻
Also, I find that googling "Who owns ______ Brewery" is fairly effective. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It wasn't all that long ago that they were bought out actually.
