Mountain Monk Brewers

Nestled into the base of Mount Bogong, lies the picturesque township of Mount Beauty. In 2017, after being closed for two years, Mount Beauty’s local watering hole reopened its doors as West Peak Hotel. They wanted to create something more to really put their beautiful town on the map.
With a passion for craft beer, in 2022, they decided to open up a 1,000-liter brewery on-site, utilising the region’s crystal clear mountain water and quality produce to make some delicious beer.

With more than ten beer varieties and award-winning food on offer, Mountain Monk Brewers has become a destination of their own. The family-owned business is the only accredited fully-veteran-owned brewery in Australia.
