Burleigh Brewing Company was founded in 2006 in Burleigh Heads on the Gold Coast by Peta and Brennan Fielding, after Brennan had brewed in Hawaii, Japan and the United States. It was one of the first craft breweries in Queensland. In 2015 the brewery outgrew its first site and moved a few hundred metres to Ern Harley Drive, where brewhouse, packaging line and taphouse share one building. The range leans on German- and Czech-style lagers alongside pale ales, brewed without rice or corn and left unpasteurised. The company remains independent and family-run.

They stay close to the peer baseline on their recurring notes.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
