Three of the Beechworth firm’s beverages were in the Hottest 100 Craft Beers of 2016, a list compiled by website Craftypint.
Its signature pale ale was 13th, while their Bling Bling (No.85) and Bling (No.92) also made the count to the delight of brewer Ben Kraus.
“There's about 500 breweries in Australia, and there isn't room for all of them on the list,” he said.
“So to have three of our beers make it is a fantastic result.
“The key for us is that our beer is available nationally.”
Wagga’s Thirsty Crow vanilla milk stout was 45th.
