We are moving. New venue in the works. Online only. Having opened in September 2009, Slowbeer was the country’s first, 100% dedicated craft beer store.
We focus our range on local microbreweries & more obscure imports from cult breweries around the world. Having closed our Fitzroy store in June 2023 we are currently searching for a new location in Melbourne's North East suburbs and accordingly trading online in the interim.
NOW ON TAP .co Cali IPA
“Chasing that feeling, a rush like no other. A super clean and dry body with a certain salinity, inundated with waves of El Dorado LUPO, Azacca LUPO, Galaxy and Simcoe. Super tropical, plenty of the old school, worth it.
A meld of dry and crisp, with new world hops. Tropical fruits, soft citrus and stone fruit on the nose, is balance by a creamy mouthfeel and dry, biscuity finish. Moreish and some salinity, and a wave of hop flavours. Surfs up.” - .co
Now on tap
Current tap list at our new home
Now on tap at our new home . Only 3 kegs in Victoria and we scored 1!
“Thanks to our mates at Single O, we’ve created a decadent coffee stout that heroes their special Firecracker blend to see out our 2024 Stout Series with a bang.
Inspired by their new coffee bar in Shibuya, Tokyo, and the Sumida Fireworks Festival, one of the many summer festivals in Japan, we’ve added chocolate covered strawberries and black sesame to complement the huge cherry and chocolate notes from the coffee. The result is a layered, balanced stout with an extra milky body for extra indulgence.”
As a Craft Beer retailer for nearly 20 years, it’s hard to watch the closure of so many Breweries. Feeling for all the Burnley Brewing team.
