We highly recommend drinking at and buying from your nearest brewery. There’s almost nothing that can beat the taste of a beer fresh from the tank,
and knowing your beer hasn’t been sitting in the Queensland sun is always a good thing.
Not only that, but often you will have access to seasonal beers served for takeaway in growlers or squealers. Plus they’re cool places to hang out.

While this list is in no way complete, we hope to help you find the best of Gold Coast craft beer here.
If we’ve made glaring omissions, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly and we can add your favourite to the list!
Always changing, always evolving, and always serving quality brews!

Bottleshops:

Please be advised that many Dan Murphy’s, BWS, First Choice and Cellarbrations stores are expanding their craft beer ranges, however what we have listed here are smaller, more independently run shops.
