The Brewery - WA

The brewery was established in 1907 by an Irishman, J.V. Kearney, to provide for the demands of the many miners when working in the area. It is built on top of a breakaway, close to where the cliff drops some 30 to 40 feet. Water was pumped to equipment on the upper level for brewing and then stored in cellars below which, carved in solid rock, ensured that the beer was kept cool even in the hottest weather.
