"This is the best product 2MT has ever released! There you go. No hesitation.
At the brewing stage, way, way back in 2018 & 2019 (and none of us need to be reminded that “back then” was indeed a different time!), we are faced with the practical challenge of fitting over 70-dozen whole oysters from Bruny Islands, 70-dozen mussels from Freycinet Marine Farm, nearly 40kg of seaweed into the kettle and then sparging this “mollusc stew” with sea-water. The resultant wort is intense enough, but the phases this project went through over the course of 5-years of barrel maturation makes the phases of the moon look a bit humdrum. The resultant ale is a miracle of spontaneously wild fermented complexity. An umami-monster." - Ashley Huntington
Originally a winemaker in southern France, Ashley Huntington and his family moved to a 580 hectare farm in the Derwent Valley in 2004. Originally looking to plant vines to make wine, they fell in love with Tasmania's rich hop growing history and established Two Metre Tall instead. A true farmhouse brewery, using estate-grown & local ingredients and exclusively wild and mixed culture ferments with indigenous yeasts and local microflora. Ashley is a pioneer of sour and natural fermentation and one of the most important figures in farmhouse brewing.

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.
