Came here on a Sunday evening, the place was packed with people and that made it hard to find a seat. The kitchen was closed when I came, but there was a King of the Wings food truck just outside the venue.
Ordered and enjoyed the beer recommended by the friendly staff. The beer prices were reasonable too. They also serve a tasting plate for those who have difficulties choosing only one beer for the day.
Overall, a great place to come and chat with friends over beer.
Went here with friends for a weeknight catch up.
Good selection of beers available. Menu is not the same as the one on Zomato currently. There were limited options outside of shared platters. We ordered a couple of pies, which were still good. Food trucks circulate outside each night.
Casual ambience. Large airy area with plenty of indoor seating. Friendly service. Reasonable prices.
Overall, a good microbrewery for beers. Just lacking on food options.
Been here twice, nice venue. I like their beers and the seafood was alright. Definitely a place for shared eating, snacks and drinks, not your typical dinner.
I've found my way here chasing food trucks paired with a cheeky beer which has always been an enjoyable experiance, last night I went for beers are the seafood platter.. phenomenal! The seafood was fresh and full of flavour and didnt break the bank!
The staff are really helpful and friendly!
I will be back for sure!
We enjoyed a range of beers, tasting descriptions were spot on. Was there a little early so that atmosphere hadn't geared up yet. Pizzantica were serving which my company enjoyed. Will return again. Walked past with the King of the Wings food truck outside and the place was full with a good vibe...
UPDATE 22 May ... The Halfmast is light and a little fruity, recommended for an easy session.

I've been trying to get to Green Beacon Brewing Co. for nearly eighteen months, ever since Lady Meatball first came here and started telling me about the brewery with the food trucks.
She has been back several times, but the stars finally aligned and I made it here tonight. I definitely see the appeal...
9.5% alcohol Bourbon Barrel Aged Old Ale on tap (delicious - what Guinness wishes it was), great music and food trucks parked out front - what more could you ask for? More women...the men outnumbered the women nearly 7 to 1 on this evening (a bit of a kransky konvention).
As for the food trucks...Pizzantica on Mondays and Tuesdays, King of the Wings on Wednesdays, then others rotate through.
Only issue is no air conditioning. Big industrial ceiling fans help, but even with a break in the heat it was still a bit warm and humid inside the converted warehouse. Would be a 4 with air conditioning.
Definitely check this place out.
I agree with the previous reviewer. The beer, service, space is all fantastic. We love visiting Green Beacon. However.. the food. What happened? When Green Beacon first opened is was awesome. The seafood, platters, burgers were all delicious and the perfect accompaniment to the brews. The new food menu falls way short. The food trucks are okay, but I would prefer the original menu any day. It demonstrated a standard that set the place apart. Not so much now.
Great spot for a Sunday beer and food truck food. Love that they will throw out some special limited release beers every now and then for a surprise. Really enjoyed the nitro beer I tried a few weeks ago.
Green Beacon have a great variety of very nice beers, and their seasonals are excellent too. The place has a nice vibe and plenty of relaxed, comfortable seating. The food is pretty nice (if a little overpriced). My only gripe is sometimes when FB/IG says "***** food truck from 12pm" and you arrive at 12.30 for said food truck and get told "oh they're not coming til like 5pm now" and you've come for lunch it can be pretty annoying. Otherwise excellent beer, friendly and knowledgable staff plus super tasty beef jerky 😃.
This brewery is fantastic. Every beer I tried was really good. Staff was very friendly and prices were reasonable. What else can you ask for?
Oh yeah, stop in on a Monday and you'll get a pint for the price of a schooner!
The beer here is fantastic - one of my top 3 breweries in Brisbane (one of my top 4 in Australia). I had the imperial pastry stout - it's very strong but it's got this great malty caramel flavour and they give it to you in a fancy glass so that you can enjoy the flavor better. Last time I was here they had a kitchen but now they just have food trucks - the range of chips wasn't great but I was there for beer. I relaxed with my wife watching the ashes on the TV great afternoon!
The only local you'll need. Welcoming and chill vibe with plenty of variety in food trucks. Miss the bug roll though.
Great for a board game sesh on a quiet night or darts and Bev's post work.
Less sours and more hazys please
I have always enjoyed coming to Green Beacon. The locally brewed beers are all fantastic. (Just a heads up, if you're not beer drinker you'll be limited to either cider or a limited wine menu). While their beers are now commercially available it's still great to drink from the source. They also do offer many small batch beers that don't make it to bottle shops or other pubs.
The food truck model works well here too with a rotating list of food trucks. My favourite is Wednesday night when king of the wings turns up.
The environment is really nice, the architecture makes up wooden tables and barrels, there are also cylinders producing beer behind the bar in the place which makes it rustic.
The beers are wonderful, one tastier than the other and the price is cheaper than some other brewery. I tried some and chose a India Pale Ale, I advise anyone to know Green Beacon.
Good selection of beer!!!
We’ve been there in day time. It was good to talk with my friends. Staffs were kind and atmosphere was sooo nice. Interior is so attractive. Good place to grab some beer.
Green beacon has become my favourite craft beer so had to come down and see where the magic happens. Turns out their brewery is awesome inside, nice laid back place with loads on tap. I have already been through the core range so helped myself to some limited release beers. Very interesting beers indeed! Just wish they let you do take away singles instead of 4 pack only.
