About Us
Family Owned and Operated
St Andrews Beach Brewery is family owned and operated, based on the Mornington Peninsula. Home is a 92-acre property that was once a world-class horse training facility, now where we brew our beer, grow our apples, and welcome locals and visitors alike.
Our motivation has stayed simple from day one. Brew modern, characterful beer. Create experiences worth having at our taprooms. Look after the land we're lucky enough to call home.

Our Story
The History Runs Deep
Our story starts in the early 2000s, when co-founder Andrew Purchase built a racetrack for the Freedman Brothers on this same property. A longtime local, Andrew jumped at the chance to buy it when it came up for sale.
Years of planning turned old stables into a brewery and taproom, and the racetrack into an orchard. We opened our doors in December 2017 and the rest is history.

Brewing Philosophy
From Paddock to Pint

Ingredients
We work directly with local growers to source the best ingredients we can, and grow our own hops onsite.

Orchard
Over 800 trees across traditional English and French cider varieties, one of the largest orchards owned by an independent brewery in Australia.

Brewing
Every drop is brewed and packaged onsite at Fingal. Great beer takes time, and we're in no rush.

Our Community
It Takes a Village
We've always believed a great local brewery should act like one. That means backing the people who've backed us, from grassroots clubs to some of the biggest sporting organisations in the country.
