Award winningKnown for a full range of styles

Fixation was founded in Melbourne in 2015 as a joint venture between the Stone & Wood group and Tom Delmont, a former Mountain Goat sales representative who had spent years chasing fresh West Coast IPA in the United States. The company set out to brew India Pale Ale and nothing else, beginning with kegs delivered by hand to a handful of pubs in Collingwood and Fitzroy. In September 2018 it opened the incubator, a brewery and tasting room at 414 Smith Street in Collingwood, where pilot batches are poured straight from the serving tanks. Since 2021 the company has belonged to Lion, which acquired its parent Fermentum.

Everything sits in one family — which makes the comparison below the interesting part. It isn't what they brew that sets them apart, but how.

How they compare
Each beer measured against others of its own style, then averaged across the range. Compared with the wider catalogue across breweries making similar styles.

Fixation Brewing Co's beers land close to what is typical for the styles they brew. The character is in the styles they choose and how consistently they hit them — not in standing apart from the field.
