Bicheno Brewing Takes Gold for Launch Lager at The Indies Awards

We’re absolutely stoked to share the news that our very own Launch Lager has taken out the gold at The Indies Awards! This is a massive win not just for us here at Bicheno Brewing but for the Tassie beer scene as a whole. The Indies Awards, which celebrate the best of independent brewing across the country, are a big deal, and to snag gold means the world to us.

About the Award-Winning Launch Lager

Our Launch Lager is all about capturing the laid-back coastal vibes of Bicheno. It’s crisp, clean, and goes down a treat on a sunny arvo by the beach. With a subtle malt sweetness and just the right amount of bitterness, it’s a beer we’ve poured our hearts into, and it’s amazing to see it getting this kind of recognition.

‍

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Bright golden with a frothy white head—a proper classic look.
• Aroma: Lightly sweet malts with a hint of citrus and floral hops.
• Flavor: Super refreshing with a smooth balance of malt and hops.
• Mouthfeel: Clean, crisp, and just what you’d want to knock back on any occasion.
