Bridge Road Hefe Weizen Dunkel
This beer style hails from perhaps the world’s best know beer region, Bavaria. Bridge Road’s Brewer, Ben Kraus, traced his roots back to the land of beer and has researched this style in it’s homeland Germany. The beer is deep red to brown in colour, with a strong beige head. The nose instantly gives away the style, fruity, and clove like with plenty of fresh banana. On the pallet this cloudy beer is super smooth, with a soft roundness, an interesting blend of roasted malts with banana and clove and hint of bitterness. A dry roasted character lingers on your pallet until your next mouthful.

Bridge Road Biere De Garde
By far the biggest in the Chevalier range, the Biere De Garde is loosely based on traditional Belgian and French farmhouse ales. The Biere De Garde uses a blend of spices to back up the great malt characters. This beer has a rich toffee colour with a creamy off white head, aromas are a mixture of dried fruits, spices such as star anise and clove, and yeast driven esters. The pallet presents soft round malty flavours with some residual sweetness. This beer has a lot going on and as it warms in the glass the full spectrum becomes more evident. This complex ale pairs well with game dishes or can…

Bridge Road Bling India Pale
Bridge Road Brewers have created their own take on a more traditional beer style – India Pale Ale, originally a heavily hopped beer developed for the long haul from England to India by boat. Fresh hops were added to the barrel and the alcohol was bolstered to ensure the beer went the distance on the high seas. Bling, is a huge beer, with all the bells and whistles. This ale is armed to the teeth with hops and studded with 24 carrot modified malts. At Bridge Road we’ve gone all out to make an IPA that screams hops and malt but still keeps balance in mind. Try matching this beer…

Bridge Road Robust Porter
Big chocolate, roasted and mocha notes are the key to this style. A wise country football coach once said “theres no point half doing something”. And in making this porter we’ve taken his advice on board, our Robust Porter uses plenty of roast barley and chocolate malt to give you a big porter that wont leave you asking for more. Try this one with dark chocolate and liquorice. Bridge Roads Porter, like many of its beers, pulls no punches. Make no mistake, the Robust Porter is big and bold, yet its smooth raosty texture makes it one to convert the non-dark drinker. Match it with rich chocolate deserts, cold winter…

Bridge Road Celtic Red
Originally brewed for Beechworth’s annual Celtic festival, the Celtic Red Ale is now a Bridge Road staple. The Celtic festival is held in november each year and aside from the music, having a few ales is a big part of it. The Celtic Red Ale is classed as an Irish Red Ale in beer speak. It presents a wonderful deep red hue and a creamy off white head. The Red Ale has a big malty body owing to the use of caramalised malts and roast barley. The flavour is slightly roasted with smooth notes of chocolate, toffee or Jaffa, bringing back childhood memories of the occasional Jaffa that was actually…
