Red Duck started on the shores of Lake Purrumbete in 2005. We are one of the smallest Micro-breweries in Australia, making on average 500 litres per brew. We engineered and built our own brewhouse specifically to make World class ales.
In the winter of 2011 we moved the brewery to Ballarat, with a view to increasing production and the range of our ales. Our original range of 3 different ales, has expanded to 8 regular brews, and around 15 limited release ales over the years. Our limited release ales are quite rare, some only one batch made per year, some only one batch made ever.
If you find a Red Duck, don’t let it get away!
About our ales
Red Duck ales are made using traditional, all natural methods. There are no added chemicals, no adjuncts or sugar used in the brewing process, we do not filter, we do not pasteurise. We do bottle condition, which leaves a small amount of yeast in the bottle. This is a sign of a real ale. It means that the ale is healthier for you and tastes better. Our beers are more expensive than cheap commercial beer, because we are small, because we do not compromise, and because our beers are better.

Ballarat Brewery:
Our new brewery is located in a tidy tin shed, with a stand of Silver Birchs out front. 11a Michaels Drive, Alfredton, (Ballarat). Ph (03) 5332 0723. We are usually there monday to friday during the day, brewing or bottling. There isn't a cellar door set up as yet, something we are working on. Take away sales direct from the brewery are welcome, but for the full Red Duck experience, a trip south to our Camperdown based Provedore is required.
Red Duck Provedore:
Red Duck Provedore is located in the main street of Camperdown. We offer all the current releases of Red Duck ales, as well as hard to find and a few rare Red Ducks. We have 4 taps serving our ales, changing with the seasons.
