Mountain Goat Beer is a prominent Australian craft brewery founded in 1997 by Cam Hines and Dave Bonighton. Originally established in Richmond, Victoria, the brand was a pioneer in the Australian craft beer scene, starting with its first product, Hightail Ale.

In 2015, the brewery was acquired by Asahi Beverages, a subsidiary of the Japanese multinational Asahi Group Holdings. While the corporate ownership shifted to a global scale, the beer continues to be produced primarily within Australia to maintain its local craft heritage. The 'GOAT Very Enjoyable Beer' is part of their approachable range designed for sessions and casual drinking, showcasing a blend of traditional brewing methods with modern tastes.

Today, the brand operates under the umbrella of Asahi’s Australian business, which manages a significant portfolio of local and international beverage brands. Despite the high-level international ownership, the brand maintains its identity through its original Richmond brewpub and manufacturing facilities across Australia.
