Visit to Van Dieman Brewing



Van Dieman Brewing is located just outside the historical Tasmanian town of Evandale, just a short drive from Launceston. When arriving at the farming property you are greeted by century old English oak trees which guide you towards the microbrewery where more magnificent English oaks stand guard over the beer making operation.


Will Tatchell is the man behind the brewing; learning his craft in the UK he now brings this experience and knowledge to Van Dieman Brewing. Will prides himself on producing high quality craft beer. He sources first-rate ingredients; in most cases grown and sourced from within Tasmania. This together with his passion and dedication ensures he brews supremely good real craft beer.
All of the Van Dieman Brewing ales are brewed without using any additives or preservatives and use water sourced from natural springs on the farm.
Van Dieman Brewing have four signature brews all of which take their names from local Tasmanian sites;
  • Stacks Bluff oatmeal stout
  • Jacobs Ladder amber ale
  • Ragged Jack pale ale
  • White Hills white ale

Van Dieman Dubbel Shot - Belgian coffee Dubbel 500ml 6.6% 

A Belgian Abbey Dubbel infused with cold drip coffee from local roasters, Ritual Coffee. The cold drip avoids the charred bitterness normally associated with coffee additions in beers, resulting in a beautifully sweet and rich hazelnut coffee aroma, along with Belgian chocolate and bready malt character. These blend seamlessly into a complex palate, expectant of a Dubbel style, filled with raisins, spices, dark fruit and creamy malt sweetness.
The mash up series is a collection of collaborative brews with local Tasmanian primary produces. A mash up can best be described as a composition created by blending two or more products, usually one seamlessly over another, to the extent that such works are ‘transformative’ of original content.
