Little Creatures has transformed The Camfield – Australia's largest pub – into a Little Creatures microbrewery, creating the brand's second outpost in Western Australia.

In partnership with Three Pound Group, the venue will host a range of brews including Little Creatures' OG Pale Ale, as well as the first of The Camfield brewed, limited-release beers, Backyard Ale, an All-Australian IPA, and a new permanent Draught Ale.

New brews will be developed and brewed every few months, and will only be available at The Camfield and Three Pound Group venues.

Three Pound Group general manager Tim Mclernon, said: “The Camfield has been pouring Little Creatures on tap since we opened the doors in 2018 and are honoured to be its second home in WA.”

Little Creatures has been a Western Australian icon since 2000, and Lion are investing significantly behind the brand, with Little Creatures already brewing at The Camfield microbrewery ahead of the official launch on 5 May, taking over from Bevy Brewing Co, which will cease production.

Little Creatures head brewer Russ Gosling, said, “Little Creatures is proud to be opening its second outpost in Western Australia, twenty-three years on since opening the doors to its first brewery in Fremantle. We've put a lot of effort into creating a space that is both inviting and exciting for locals and visitors alike, and we can't wait to share it with everyone."

Lion is #13 on the Food & Drink Business 2022 Top 100 Food & Drink Companies report.
