REGION: Wollongong, NSW
SIZE: 750ml / ABV: 5.8%
Blume marries a phenolic yeast driven beer with the iconic aromas of Australian Myrtles. We aged a French/Belgium Saison with fresh leaves from a trio of myrtles - lemon, cinnamon and aniseed collected from our friend's backyard. Aged 16 months in French oak.
Blume is a delicate blend of saison spice and subtle Australian myrtle backed up by a creamy malt mid-palate and hints of oak and vanilla.
New kids on the block have come out swinging! The Barrel Shepherd is a tiny brewery/blendery based in Wollongong, NSW using 100% locally grown, organic grain, whole fruit, sourced locally and/or organically when possible, and fresh pomace from trusted winemakers. Exclusively wild and native yeasts and bacterias to create nuanced beers that reflect their landscape - TERROIR!

SPÖN Bottle Shop & Wine Bar: Made for Discovery
A 50-seater wine bar; Inspired by the charming, drink-in bottle shops hidden throughout the cobblestone streets of Europe, explore a rotating world of natural, organic, rare & vintage wines, and craft beers sourced from Australia and across the globe.
Born in Newtown
Nestled in the vibrant heart of Newtown – We created SPÖN as a cozy neighbourhood bottle shop and wine bar that feels relaxed, welcoming and distinctly its own. Creative, a little gritty, a little playful and always full of something new & unexpected — just like Newtown.
A bottle shop with a bar problem.
SPÖN - a discovery-led hybrid bottle-shop/Wine bar experience. Browse the shelves, grab a bottle and drink it at the bar — or pull up a stool and explore a daily rotating board of over 15+ distinct wines being poured by the glass. SPÖN is built around drinking what interests you.
Come curious. Leave with a new favourite.
We don’t tell you what to drink. You don’t need to know your varietals, regions or vintages, and you certainly don’t need to pretend you do. Tell us what you like, hate, what you’ve tried or curious about — we’ll take it from there. Sometimes the best bottle is the one you didn’t know you wanted.
