Wobbly Chook Brewing Company- Yamba, NSW
Wobbly Chook Brewing Co. was founded by the Henwood family which originally built & opened Yamba’s first & only backpackers’ hostel in 2008, including onsite bar & cafe ‘The Block’ which quickly grew to one of Australia's best hostels. In 2021 the pandemic brought both the backpacking & hospitality industries to a grinding halt. It was during this time, the family had to make a choice, either ‘Evolve or Dissolve’. The family had always dreamed of opening Yamba’s first craft brewery and that is where we stepped in and helped them to fulfill this dream. Designing and scaling the equipment to their specific needs, managing the installation and commissioning and eventually training their home brewer on the commercial equipment with on-going assistance to ensure success.
Wobbly Chook has been outgrowing expectations and in order to cover demand five new 10hl fermenters have been installed in 2023.
