Supermaté Soda
 |
Beverages |
Supermaté Soda is a small operation run by a few Melbourne locals who wanted a Yerba Maté soda created for our climate and our tastes. So we decided to make it ourselves and to make it locally! We wanted a soda with all natural ingredients and heaps of that unique Yerba Maté flavour. We wanted it to be better for you and low in calories so we can drink it whenever we like. We wanted it in cans so we can take it to festivals and make it easy to recycle. We hope you like what we've created! |

Brewery |
The Love Shack Brewing Co. began life in May 2021, founded by Conna Mallett and Harrison Cox, who left their jobs in Melbourne to start a brewery in Castlemaine. They initially took over a small shed in the backyard of Castlemaine’s Theatre Royal and quickly expanded due to demand. Their ethos emphasizes quality beers and a laidback atmosphere reminiscent of regional Victorian pubs. |

LISTO
 |
Margarita Mix |
Stevie and I have been shaking margs for friends and family for as long as we can remember (we even used to have our own Marg Cart!). At the end of 2019 we set off on a big trip to the US and Mexico. While away, we had lots of requests for our margarita recipe. There wasn’t much to it: lime juice, agave nectar, a little water and a decent tequila. Easy to make but, to be frank, the lime juicing, agave sourcing, measuring and mess was a bit of a pain. Cue LISTO: an authentic, easy as Tommy’s Margarita mix that makes shaking a round of margs a breeze. LISTO officially started in my Dad’s kitchen in Sydney. It was a family affair, roping in anyone that was willing for labelling, pouring and deliveries. We’ve grown a bit since then but we’re still making a mix we’re bloody proud of. Real margs, good ingredients with plenty of love. Cheers! Beck |

Coastal Drink Co
 |
Beverages |
It started in a hammock, under a coconut palm, in Fiji... On a family holiday in Fiji, we conceived the idea for Coastals Hard Coco—a pre-mix boozy coconut water cocktail. We wanted something bursting with flavour, a drink that makes you go, 'OMG, what is this!?' After nine months of fine-tuning the recipe, here we are, finally ready to share it with everyone. This drink is envisioned to be savoured, to be sipped with your head held high, soaking in the surroundings of the wonderful people and environment you're in. |

Working Title Brew Co.
 |
Brewery |
Working Title Brew Co. is the passion project of two mates who have been working in, around, and over a beer for the last decade. Great beer comes in many forms. Sometimes it derives from a meticulously planned scientific hypothesis, but often results from that 'wouldn't it be great if...' moment. No rhyme and no reason, that’s our motto. Old faithfuls, new concoctions and a few serendipitous cock-ups along the way. Let’s be honest, most of our beers are loosely developed over… well, a few beers. We make what we like, and we like what we make. Fingers crossed you do too. |
