"Surfing sensation Mick Fanning co-founded Balter Brewery with a bevy of mates (and fellow surfers) Bede Durbidge, Josh Kerr, Stirling Howland, Ant Macdonald, Sean Ronan, and Joel Parkinson in the industrial backstreets of Burleigh. The rag tag group placed award-winning brewer Scotty Hargrave (formerly of Stone and Wood and Byron Bay Brewing Company) in the role of head brewer, resulting in a brew that’s garnered acclaim across the country. But see for yourself – the brewery welcomes locals and visitors alike to drop in and take a tour, taste the beers, and get a bite to eat at one of the many food trucks that visit regularly."

"A huge success story, Balter beer was stocked throughout Australia within six months of its launch. In its upmarket warehouse and tasting room, shining tanks extend back as far as the eye can see. Co-founder Stirling Howland says the aim is to make the best beer possible, “…to expand a person’s world view on what a beer can be."

"Balter is a favourite amongst locals, and established by a couple of surfing legends. With a ten-fold expansion, this brewing company is going nowhere but up in the coming years."
