Barossa’s winemaking roots run deep, but its spirit of craftsmanship extends beyond the vineyard. A growing community of boutique breweries and distilleries is putting a fresh spin on tradition, creating small-batch beers, gins, and whiskies that capture the region’s character. Step inside a distillery to sip handcrafted gin infused with native botanicals, or pull up a seat at a local brewery to enjoy a crisp, locally brewed ale. Many offer behind-the-scenes tastings, where you can meet the makers and hear the stories behind each pour. With a mix of time-honoured techniques and bold new ideas, Barossa’s brewers and distillers are adding another layer of flavour to the region.
