Welcome to Australian Home Brewing

Australian Home Brewing has supplied Australian home brewers since 1968, when Mike
Rodgers-Wilson opened the doors. Fifty eight years later we are still familyrun, still in Melbourne, and still one of the oldest home brew suppliers trading in the country. We ship Australia wide and stock the full range for beer, spirits, wine and cider, from a first kit through to all grain systems and stills.

The part that has not changed in two generations is what we are actually for. Anyone
can post you a box. What you get from us is the answer to the question you did
not know to ask, from people who have made every mistake you are about to make.

What you'll find here

Beer kits and all grain gear, stills and essences for spirits, winemaking and cider supplies, and the cafe range. If it belongs in a serious home setup, odds are we stock.

About us

Who are we?

We're a team of beer enthusiasts who live and breathe brewing. We've been a serious presence in the home brew scene for over 50 years, since before the moon landing. With decades behind us, we keep exploring techniques so your beers stay bold and adventurous.

We care about great beer, and supporting brewers to nail every batch. Our promise is that you feel backed through your brewing journey, with a satisfaction guarantee built on experience and genuine enthusiasm.

Our customers rave not only about our ingredients and gear but also about our recipes and the brewing knowledge we love to share. Brewing isn't just a hobby for us—it's in our DNA. Our community feels it and wants in.

It's all about you

Australian Home Brewing is among Melbourne's standout homebrew shops, and our mission is to keep things straightforward for you.

If you love beer and brewing like we do, but want to buy from people who stand behind what they sell and give real support—think of us as your brewing mate. We stock solid supplies and gear, share practical know-how to smooth brew day, and keep it approachable. Jump in when you're ready.

There's more

We know it's not only recipes, ingredients, or equipment—it's the vibe too. We're building a place for brewers to swap stories, sheds, tips, and maybe a pint. Whether you're starting out or levelling up, we break brewing into simple steps anyone can follow—plain language instead of jargon.

Australian Home Brewing is more than a shop; it's a community where stories flow as freely as the beer.

Come learn, experiment, and share. First batch or fiftieth, that feeling when it turns out right never gets old—and we're here to cheer each brew with you.
