Rachel Freeman
TEMPLE BREWING CO.
We recently enjoyed a beer with head brewer Rachel Freeman at Temple Brewing Co and discovered how the brewery was named, and if in Melbourne, a great beer garden you can visit with your dog…and more!
1. How was the brewery named?
The Brewery was named after Buddhist monks, who were prohibited from consuming alcohol and, therefore decided to begin brewing beer in their Temples.
2. What beers do you have at home in your fridge now?
Plenty of Temple Draught, some beers from the good folks at Good Land Brewing, and a couple of bottles from Sobremesa.
3. Best tip for visiting the brewery?
Enjoy the dog-friendly beer garden on a sunny day. Bonus points if you bring your dog!
4. Pineapple on pizza, YES or NO?
Time and place for it, but not opposed.
5. If you can only use one hop for the rest of your life, what is it?
Amarillo
6. If you could collaborate with one other brewery, who would you choose?
7. Some occasions call for the ‘perfect’ beer, what are you reaching for:
- a beach beer? Okinawa Sour
- an airport beer? Weston St IPA
- the end of the day beer? In the Shadows Dark Ale
- the ‘best beer with dinner’ beer? Bicycle Aussie Pale
- to kick back and watch sport with? Temple Draught
8. What’s the future of craft and can Craft Cartel beer lovers get on board?
The future is Independent! Support your local, independent breweries, you have no idea how much of a difference it makes!
–We couldn’t put it better ourselves Rachel, Cheers!
