Our Story
Family Owned & Operated
Gerringong locals, Father and Son Steve and Andrew, founded Stoic in 2018 with a vision of creating a space where the community can come together and enjoy locally brewed beer and cider in amongst the vats. A place that feels like home with a community of people that feel like family.
Our most important goal at Stoic is to brew the best beer that we possibly can and to maintain a very high standard of product and service. We invest in quality ingredients, always pursuing excellence, for a great brew is created not just with shovelfuls of random grain and hops, but each one is specifically designed by our passionate brew team to contain the maximum amount of flavour. We research and invest time and knowledge into each stage of making each beer, love the challenge of creating new beer styles with new and exciting hops and ingredients, and we chase perfection in every Stoic brew.
As production increases and we move forward in expanding our business to meet the growing demand, we focus strongly on having a dedicated team in all aspects of the brewery who love working together. Its important to us for all of our staff to feel valued and cared for just as we do for other local businesses, community groups and individuals where we enjoy strong relationships and mutual support.
Our little town of Gerringong where the owners were born and raised, is growing and developing with its discovery, new found popularity and beautiful seaside position. We feel very appreciative and excited that Stoic Brewing is amidst it all and can offer that unique and personal experience of local on site, handcrafted, quality craft beer.
Our Philosophy
The Stoics pursued the good life. Being ancient Greek philosophers, they brewed up a few theories on how to be truly satisfied. One idea was that happiness is found in embracing the moment, no matter how great or gloomy. We could not agree more. It’s why we love what we do. From cleaning the vats, to tasting the new batch, it’s all good! In fact, we take it a step further. We believe it’s possible to transform any moment into an experience of pure bliss, just by adding a secret ingredient; a genuine Stoic brew.
The Stoics also figured out that everybody should work together for the greater good. We believe the same thing. In fact, every decision we make about our products is firmly rooted in the rationale that everything must live together in harmony. From the ingredients in our brew, to the way we do business, or by protecting the environment, we always strive for integrity.
In that spirit, let’s come together in unity, no matter who you are, and share a moment of true satisfaction with a Stoic brew in hand.
