MELBOURNE | The City Lane was recently invited to the Melbourne launch of BrewArt, touted by its owners Coopers as “the world’s first fully automated personal brewing system”. The event was held at Prahran’s “The Bearded Man” and featured bites from Latin street food specialists “La Revolucion“. Beer, Latin food and a haircut? We were there.
The main attraction of the event was of course the BrewArt system. The “BeerDroid” can best be described as Nespresso for beer, and is capable of brewing 10 litres of beer at the touch of a button. There are over 40 different kit beers that you can buy for the BeerDroid, but what impressed us most as budding brewers was that you can just as easily use your own ingredients and recipes, and even make wine in it.
The whole thing is hooked up to a phone app and has inbuilt WiFi so you know exactly what’s going on with your brew at any time and get updates when relevant, including when your beer is ready. Once it’s done, you can keg it, and use any existing tap system or connect the proprietary kegs to the “BrewFlo” system, which is a temperature controlled beer dispenser that doesn’t require CO2. For us, the beers came out in a similar style to a nitro tap beer and of the two beers that we tried (Pilsner and American Pale Ale), the APA was particularly delicious.
We left the event very intrigued by the whole BrewArt system, and with serious consideration towards picking up a system for ourselves – the beer that it produces is properly tasty and the whole process of brewing is made super simple.
