Billson’s Subheading

There’s no gatekeeping at Billson’s!

The wild and extraordinary story of Billson’s began waaaaay back in 1865 when Billson’s Brewery was established in beautiful Beechworth. In 2017, Nathan Cowan and his wife Felicity became the proud new owners of the dusty old brewery. It had scaled back production to several well-loved cordials and become home to a few hundred pigeons. The Cowans decided to expand and celebrate these incredible recipes.

The 150-year-old building and the brewery’s access to fresh spring water are two essential ingredients for the business, earning it an Australia-wide reputation for producing top-quality beers, sodas, spirits and cordials. The Billson’s range covers premixed spirits, gin, vodka, ales, lagers, stouts, mixers, still and sparkling water, traditional cordials and classic sodas in various flavours.
