From Shipwrecked Felons to Modern-Day Brewers: The Story of Felons Brewing Co.


Brisbane is home to some of the best food and drink destinations in Australia. From trendy bars and cafes to world-class restaurants, there's something to satisfy everyone's palate in this vibrant city. And when it comes to craft beer, there's no better place to go than Felons Brewing Co.

Located down under the Story Bridge within the Howard Smith Wharves precinct, Felons Brewing Co is a modern-day brewery that proudly calls Brisbane home. The brewery's founders are Brisbane locals who believe that beer is what binds people to this great part of the world. That's why they brew their beers with passion and freedom, using only the finest ingredients to create a range of delicious brews.

The brewery's name is inspired by the true tale of four felons who, in 1823, were blown off course on their way to Illawarra from Sydney and found themselves shipwrecked up north on Moreton Island.


Their thirst for adventure and freedom lives on in the beer that is proudly brewed for the people of Brisbane today.

Felons Brewing Co is not just about beer, though. The brewery also boasts a top-notch menu that is designed to complement the brews perfectly. The menu features a range of tasty pub grub, including wood-fired pizzas, burgers, and poké bowls, as well as a range of more substantial dishes like king prawns, grilled Moreton Bay bugs, and freshly shucked oysters. These dishes pair perfectly with a refreshing Felons Middy or one of the other beers on offer.

But it's not just the beer and food that make Felons Brewing Co a must-visit destination in Brisbane. The brewery also boasts one of the best views in the city, with a 1000-square-metre, 500-seat beer hall nestled beneath the iconic Story Bridge. The deck, beer garden, and adjoining parklands are all fully licensed, so you can grab a pint and wander along the boardwalk or throw down a picnic blanket on the grassy knoll. And if you're in the mood for a change of scenery, there are Felons beer trucks parked around the precinct, so you never have to venture far for a top-up.



Overall, Felons Brewing Co is a game-changer in Brisbane's food and drink scene.

It's a place where you can come to enjoy great beer, delicious food, and stunning views in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. So why not come on down to this unique and vibrant brewery and see what all the fuss is about? Cheers!
