Mountain Goat GOAT Summer Ale

Mountain Goat Beer was established in 1997 in Richmond, Victoria, by founders Cam Hines and Dave Bonighton. Initially starting as a craft brewery focused on distinct, high-quality ales, the brand became a staple of the Australian craft beer movement.

In 2015, Mountain Goat Beer was acquired by Asahi Beverages, the Australian arm of the Japanese multinational Asahi Group Holdings. While the brand maintains its craft heritage and still operates its primary brewpub in Richmond, larger scale production for products like the GOAT Summer Ale occurs across Asahi's Australian manufacturing network. The brand is now a key part of the Asahi global portfolio, benefiting from widespread distribution while maintaining its Melbourne roots.
