Burleigh Brewing Company

Eighteen years of independent brewing in Queensland, and Burleigh's calling card remains Bighead — Australia's first zero carb lager, 88 calories a bottle. Thirty world gold medals later, the Burleigh Heads taphouse pours everything from Twisted Palm Tropical Pale Ale to limited-run Biggies in oversized bottles. The Czech Mates and Japan Black suggest a brewery that's still curious.
