Our latest Cross Breed is out.
We’ve called it Seedy Goat, and it’s a Coffee IPA. We’re a little excited about it.
It’s a collaboration with our mates at Seven Seeds Coffee Roasters, who brought the coffee expertise.
We’ve integrated coffee into the beer without taking the beeriness out (we still believe beeriness is an important characteristic of beer). What we’ve come up with is a big, hoppy IPA – with a twist of coffee.
It took many beer and coffee sampling sessions but finally we decided on the Nicaraguan ‘Finca El Limoncillo’ Pacamara Bean which displays guava, prune & paw paw flavours.
The coffee partially replaces hops in the bitterness, flavour and aroma of the beer. This is no tacked on flavour, but a complex fruity kick, all the way to the back of your palate.
You’ll find it at good, independent bottleshops, and you can get a draft version when we tap it at Goat Bar this Wednesday and Friday night. (Some of you early birds may have already tried it…)
We hope you dig it like we do…
Goats.

Hi there,
I have unfortunately got my husband very excited about seedy goat after reading him a review. Picked up a couple of other goats in Northcote the other day but can’t seem to find anything seedy. We are in Watsonia, would my best bet be a visit to the brewery in time for a very happy fathers day?
Ta,
Sam.
Hey Sam,
Here’s some suggestions:
Doc’s Liquor Nth Ringwood, Carwyn Cellars Thornbury, Twisted Vine Thornbury, IGA Northcote, Harvest Wines Northcote…
But you could certainly come in here and get some as well.
Let us know how he likes it!
Cheers,
Goats.
Hi, was just wondering if this is seeing Sydney distribution?
Sure is – check with Bacchus Wine Merchants for stores: 1 300 309 773
Cheers,
Goats.
Sam – try Purvis in Surry Hills. BTW – does your old man like a VB?
Hi Glen!
Thanks for the tip. No, my dad doesn’t like VB… He LOVES it! Fortunately my husband has a broader palate. Tracked down seedy goat in Thornbury and he really enjoyed it fathers day. My dad however received the very classy 500ml VB cans!
Hi there,
I moved over to the UK a bit over four months ago and am getting massive cravings for some Mountain Goat. I was wondering if there was any way for me to sample the Seedy Goat on this side of the world? Any way I can do an international order?
Thanks,
Anton
This sounds amazing- I am from the states and heard word of your expansion to come over. Really hoping to get a taste of your brews. As I udnerstand they’re only available west coast just yet but I reckon Baltimore, Delaware, Philadelphia and D.C. would be great spots to look into for these products. All the best of luck to you!
Hey Anton,
We feel your cravings, but there’s not much we can do I’m sorry – at least about Seedy Goat. There will be some Goat heading to the UK soon, tho’ – more when its to hand.
Thanks for the mail.
Cheers,
Goats.
Hey Victoria,
We’re heading East – slowly but surely.
Stay tuned…
Thanks for the mail and the stoke up!
Goats.
Thanks guys! Looking forward to it.
How well would this keep in the post? Getting a mate to send it through to London. Any stockists around East Brunswick?
