"CurrumbinBALTER was famously brought to life on the Gold Coast by local pro surfers Mick Fanning, Joel Parkinson, Bede Durbidge and Josh Kerr, together with head brewer Scott Hargrave. Heavily awarded and now readily available in pubs, bars and bottle shops across Australia – it’s incredible to think that this fun-loving brew just launched in 2016. The spacious warehouse style Balter HQ has become a popular watering-hole for locals and visitors alike with tours, beer tasting, special events, music and food vans adding to the good vibes."

"If you’re not familiar with the Balter brand, it’s a brewing company founded by a crew of Aussie surfing legends, including Mick Fanning. In true Gold Coast style, they have opened up Balter, the ultimate spot to enjoy a beachside beverage. Nestled in the backstreets of Currumbin, it offers chilled vibes and a range of tasty brews."

Gold Coast Breweries: five of the best
"The latest addition to the burgeoning Gold Coast craft scene, Lost Palms has put a little fun into the brewery scene by taking out any tough guy elements associated with beer (and the Gold Coast) and introducing locals to a brewery and taphouse dominated by a pastel pink and mint colour scheme. Hardly your average brewery, is it?. You’ll find it in the industrial area of hip neighbourhood Miami – among smash repairers and mechanics – but also just across the street from the Coast’s trendiest hang-out, the Miami Marketta (where you’ll find pop-up bars, boho designers, eclectic live music and a crowd that looks more Collingwood than Coolangatta)."
Mentioned by The Gourmand & Gourmet

"Pastel-coloured Lost Palms is a definite highlight of the Gold Coast beer scene. Their eye-catching decor is impossible to miss, and the perfect place to soak in the casual, relaxed vibes of Miami. The brews match the vibes perfectly, serving up a collection of craft beers which can be tasted in their very own taproom."
