about us
We are a modern Australian company elevating the modern Australian dream. Our family, friends and our homes come first. We love creating moments on our own terms in our own space. We unapologetically appreciate the good things in life because we’ve earned it. We’re offended by the rising cost of a simple schooner and are making it our mission to provide the same experience at your home for a fraction of the price. We believe that beers enjoyed with mates is part of our social fabric and we’re here to save it.

A Physio since 2008 and a Physio business owner since 2010… in the years that followed growing to 3 locations, 35+ staff, servicing >20 000 Gold Coasters, and winning a swag of small business and industry awards. Justin was fortunate to have his Back In Motion clinics acquired by an ASX-listed company which has now given him the opportunity to transfer the knowledge gained and skills acquired into a very different field.

Most recently, he held the Head Brewer role at Burleigh Barrels, Catchment and Fortitude Brewing, and has worked with 4Pines, Six Tricks Distillery, 2 Mates Lismore, Slipstream and Lost Palms. Before taking on brewing professionally, Chris was a carpenter and holds his building licence having built high-end and spec homes. Before that he was studying commerce/law. A highly talented individual, we are very fortunate to have someone of Chris’s skillset, experience and industry know-how on board at Tap That Brewery & Keghouse.
Social Responsibility
Whether it’s enjoying a drink after a hard day at work/with the kids, a celebration or a commiseration, an avenue to de-stress, or a way to bring people together… alcohol has many social benefits.
However… we also acknowledge it is a vice that has the potential to damage lives and families.
Therefore, we are committed to a strong Social Responsibility & Impact presence donating to supporting victims of drink driving and domestic violence and proactively addressing some of the negative consequences of alcohol. We will be heavily involved in the community via sponsorship and supply to local sports clubs and other community organisations.

Absolutely! Chris–our Head Brewer–has the skillset to make RTD spirits (eg Gin & Tonic, Rum & Ginger Beer) and cocktails (eg Mojito and Margaritas) on tap for enjoyment in your Home Keg System. We will also be brewing hard Ginger Beer, Seltzers and Sours. With the right attachments you can serve soda water, kombucha, even cold-brew coffee!
The main factors to consider include:
- A space for your Home Keg System – they are suitable outdoors if under cover and require 50-100mm clearance on either side for ventilation (just like a normal fridge)
- Your general alcohol consumption levels and how much variety of beverages you want to have – keep in mind our range will include beer, ginger beer, RTD spirits and cocktails, seltzers and sours.
- Budget – with 1-6 tap options available, there is a Home Keg System to suit every budget. While the upfront investment is a consideration, the long-term savings are undeniable.
Yes, assembly is required. We provide detailed instruction manuals and videos, making the process relatively straightforward. We offer an assembly service ($150) and a delivery + assembly service ($300).
Cleaning your beer lines is recommended to ensure the highest quality and taste of your beer. This should be done every few months and once again is a relatively straight forward process. Beer line cleaning kits are available to purchase from Tap That.
