Sailor's Grave Brewing

What a great way to spend Saturday afternoon while taking in the view!
Located at the back of the brewery their cellar door is located outdoors - with tables aplenty - which makes this a great option to bring not only kids but also your furry friends!
There are tasting paddles available, as well as non alcoholic options for those who are driving.
Combine this with great music and the friendliest of staff around and you have a winner!

Outrageous, courageous, experimentive, and creative! Sailor's Grave tops our list (so far) of the best independent craft brews in the country.
With the craft beer industry getting hit from all angles with inflation lately, we truly hope they'll be around for a very long time. We're excited to see what's next! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Easily one of the quirkiest ,most oddball breweries in Victoria, if not Australia. Their beers are absolutely one of our favourites. Some of the varieties they brew either has you scratching your head or laughing at the crazy combinations. I would say it is a case of 90% hit, and 10% miss. Highly recommended doesn't come close to someone trying them. Also love the artwork on the cans.

Sailor’s Grave is a must place to visit, in South East Gippsland, whether travelling through or staying in Orbost or nearby and set along the Snowy River. The beer is exceptional. You can get a tasting paddle and see which one is to your liking. Personally I really enjoyed the Drowned Man IPA. Went down so well on humid summers day. Dogs are welcome here too.

Love a bit of foraging so when my brother recommended this I couldn’t resist! Loved the citrus flavours of the uni, Down She Gose is too easy to drink- lovely salty after taste and the family favourite- Lemon Meringue Pie. Really enjoyed the different approach to the a local brew. Very unique artwork on the cans.

I don’t know any of the people involved in this, nor have I been here. But I aim to change both of those faults of mine. Some of the most interesting beer around right now for me. Interesting, and delicious. Love your work!

EDIT.
Couple years later, finally made it. Great staff, great beer, great location.
Food truck sealed the deal.

Quirky delicious beer. I've been buying Sailors grave beer for ages. This was the first time visiting the cellar door. Will definitely be back. The atmosphere is amazing, it's mostly outdoor venue so dress according to the weather conditions.

Fantastic visit and enjoyed some amazing beers on tap. Dark Emu is a big favourite. Picked up a mixed case of the seasonal brews, to enjoy at home. Fantastic views from the beer garden.

Chill little brewery with good beats pumping. We were there on a Saturday and there wasn’t too many people. The beers were good especially the lemon meringue sour. There is no food so it’s BYOF, recommend popping into Orbost and grabbing something local to support the town. Pets are welcome and there’s a good view into the farmland next door. I would go back if I was passing through the area again.

Hidden gem out the back of Orbost with occasional buskers and bands. Beautiful spot on a sunny afternoon.

I just tried their ‘peach melba pavlova cream sour’ and OMFG… was actually the best. Love the beer, love the art, love the vibe. Keep up the good work, can’t wait to visit the actual brewery.

Brilliant. Fantastic selection of unusual beers. Lovely setting. Tasting paddle available so you can try them all. Highly recommend the stout…and that’s coming from a non-stout drinker!

Great beer selection at the new cellar door. Cheese plate goes down the hatch well with a tasting paddle. I’ll be back again! Also high quality bar mats

Great Beers, great views and friendly staff

My wife bought me the hibernation hamper (a mix of 12 different beers) for Father’s Day and what an enjoyable time I’ve had trying them out! Some of the most interesting, creative and beautifully flavoured beers I’ve ever had. It’s like the Charlie & the Chocolate Factory of beer. Thanks to the team at Sailors Grave, love your work!

I like my beers and I must say sailors grave IPA is the best I've had in a long time.
Very impressive.
Love your work.

Beer doesn't taste any better in Australia other than from direct from the source at Sailors Grave! 🍻

Fantastic outdoor setting and music and nice selection of beers and drinks

Hosted the fantastic Nowa Nowa Mens Choir. We had a great time, enjoyed the singing, the beers and the beautiful open air. Excellence.

Some of Australia's best craft beer! Brewery is currently only open to the public on special occasions such as Australia Day.
