A rural and relaxed casual brewery with plenty of character and fun vibes dishing out flavour-packed goods from the barbecue, alongside quality craft brews.
A little off the beaten track, Beerfarm is a destination for beer lovers looking for a quality feed centred around the barbecue smoker. With a vast rustic indoor and outdoor dining area, guests can perch at one of the communal benches or find a spot of their own. Kids (and dogs too) are welcome inside and out – the pool table and pinball machines will entertain if it happens to be a rainy day, with the slip ’n’ slide a drawcard in warmer months.
Understandably meat plays a sizeable role on the menu – crisp-fried lamb ribs, smoky hot wings and pork-belly tacos are made for sticky-fingered sharing.
Burnt Ends Smoking Co has collaborated with Beerfarm on the culinary front, with most dishes enjoying an element of smoky goodness from the barbecue, including the Angus burger in which a smoked tomato jam elevates classic flavours. Beef is sourced from the cattle on the working farm that the brewery sits on, and other local producers are listed on the menu. Understandably meat plays a sizeable role on the menu – crisp-fried lamb ribs, smoky hot wings and pork-belly tacos are made for sticky-fingered sharing. Firecracker cauliflower has the fat-salt-sweet ratio nailed – perfect drinking food for vegetarians – and the richness of charred South West octopus is nicely balanced with kipflers and hummus. Non-beer drinkers, meanwhile, have a good selection of local wines and softs. With a solid following, this Metricup mainstay demands booking ahead, or you’ll likely miss out.
