Mountain Goat Richmond

Established in 1997.

Mountain Goat started out as Dave's weekend homebrew project in a suburban Melbourne backyard. A postcard turned up from his mate Cam who was backpacking in Canada and had just discovered craft beer. They decided Melbourne needed craft beer too (back in 1997, there was really only fizzy lagers to be found). So Cam and Dave had a great idea but no money to build a brewery. They were knocked back from every bank they approached but luckily, with a little help from friends and family, they prevailed and Mountain Goat was soon tapped at a few local pubs. Nineteen years later, Mountain Goat is now found nationally and in a few international markets. Mountain Goat was acquired by Asahi Premium Beverages in October 2015 but it stayed business as usual, with the brewery and bar still operating in the back streets of Richmond. From Steam Ale, one of Australia's first organic beers, to the more complex limited releases and barrel aged beers, there is a Mountain Goat beer for everyone.
