## About

Vale Brewing began in 2008 as the McLaren Vale Beer Company, a contract operation, and its Vale Ale topped the GABS Hottest 100 craft beer poll in 2010. It later built a brewery at McLaren Vale and added the Fox Hat brand, was bought by the South Australian drinks firm Bickford's and moved its brewing to Salisbury. The taphouse at Blewitt Springs reopened in 2022.
