darwin brewery is a sunderland-based brewery which opened in 1994 and expanded in 2002 .

originally a brewing school of the university of sunderland with an 18-gallon plant , the demand for the beers that were brewed there spurred an expansion and full commercialisation .

in 1997 , darwin acquired hodges brewery in crook , county durham , and used the premises as the main brewing plant until the 2002 expansion into their current premises in hendon , sunderland .

darwin brewery

jay r . is drinking an original flag porter 1825 by darwin brewery at albatross & co .
established in 1997 darwin brewery has grown steadily to become one of the most respected micro - breweries in the north of england .
one mile brewery is committed to building a reputation behind easy drinking craft beer designed for the darwin climate , brimming with flavour .
and true to their beginnings , the brewery is still called one mile brewery after the shed in stuart park where it all started .
the fledgling brewery quickly outgrew the shed , and stu and bardy’s passion for beer made them keenly aware that darwin was lacking locally produced beer . this spurred them on to try and develop their own commercial micro - brewery , and so the process began to transform one mile brewery from a hobby to a business .
brewers : discover our brewer resources here . are you affiliated with this brewery ?
darwin’s first beers were produced on a very small 18 gallon system based at brewlab at the university of sunderland . three years later the brewery expanded to crook , county durham with the acquisition of the hodge’s brewery and brewed there until 2002 when two factors resulted in a move back to sunderland .
back . you have a great brewery here and we are so glad your are in bradenton .
my first time at an american brewery it was very cool . kevin was a great guide and very informativ
the brewery was originally set up in stu’s shed in stuart park near the old ' one mile station ' .

darwin’s craft beer scene remains modest . partly , no doubt , this is because darwin’s drinking culture has historically been centred around one iconic figure : the darwin stubby . these two - litre bottles of nt draught were the staple of top end drinking for more than 50 years . but the practicalities behind the infamous darwin stubby – it was retired last year by carlton united breweries , along with nt draught altogether – probably better explain why starting a microbrewery is difficult . the oversized bottles were originally designed with consideration to the logistics of shipping bottles long distances .

when we published our series of best new beers features for 2017 , there was one thing missing : an entry for the northern territory . with a new brewery opening soon , that may change in 2018 . for now , an update from nt ' s original craft brewery , one mile . read on
all of our beers are brewed on site at our facility on the banks of the river wear , sunderland . darwin beers range from our oldest brew , evolution - a copper coloured bitter - to flag porter - a historic porter recreated using an 1850s recipe and yeast recovered from an 1825 shipwreck ! whatever your palate , darwin has the brew for you .
in the 1980s , the acclaimed travel writer jan morris visited darwin . “never did a town greet its visitors more boisterously , ” she said . “never did the beer flow quite so fast . ”
one mile stands almost alone in the top end craft beer scene . located in palmerston – a little ways out of downtown darwin – stu and bardy have been conjuring up crafty creations since 2012 . their beers are now on tap at seven locations in darwin , including several restaurants . they may be the only microbrewery on tap exclusively at a hilton in australia ; here in darwin , their beer commands the only tap at this hotel , and recently they were part of an event where their brews were paired with local oysters . it just goes to show that things work differently up here .
the brewery moved to larger commercial premises in palmerston and the brewing set - up was greatly expanded . the brewing processes have also been refined to ensure a consistent , quality product is made .
this brewery is walking distance to the other brewery i visited on my brewery day in bradenton . also , fyi , it ' s across the street from the pirates spring training stadium . i happened to go on a day the game was going on and was ending , so naturally there were a ton of people at darwin . it wasn ' t too bad though . the brewery is small , but they have a good amount of patio space and lots of people were standing and hanging out . they have tables , picnic tables , ect for people to sit . they also have a few games for patrons to play . the beers were delicious , i can ' t recall the name , but there is one that is aged in a whiskey barrel and omg - - only need one of those . that ' s how strong it is . restroom facilities were clean , staff was nice . they also had a german food truck there ( delish ! ! ) if this was closer to me , i ' d be a frequent customer .
he’s talking about darwin’s drinking scene . drinkers here , i’m reminded , are all about cheap , flavourless , easy - to - gulp beers . winning locals to craft beer is tough . discussion is bandied over the table as to why that is .
so far , one mile’s beers are only available by the keg , but but they’re looking at turning a hand to bottling later in 2016 . ( despite fairly regular requests , they don’t seem to have any intention of reproducing the darwin stubby . )

el dorado - skuuuuuuuunky ! ! ! darwin ' s jade - mellow , bitter , more - or - less drinkable farmhouse porter - pretty smooth but not much flavor circa 1926 - again not much flavour , but a light beer that ' s easy to drink cool atmosphere and really nice staff .
now four years in , one mile has been joined in the last month by another top end brewery , purple mango . purple mango’s agenda is to brew small batches on site at their cafe and wine bar in marrakai , on the road to kakadu , and again have aimed for beers with higher fermentation temperatures , and refreshing finishes , with a steam ale , belgian pale ale , a mango beer and a fresh ginger beer all in the works . purple mango also intends to start bottling , with a couple of outlets in darwin interested in stocking their products .
another trip to sarasota and another local brewery visit ! we planned to check out darwin ' s brewery on our last visit but our trip up to bradenton / anna maria island ended up not coinciding with a day that they were open ! their outdoor area is adorable and i loved it as soon as we walked up from the parking lot . inside the bar had a couple empty stools so we hopped on up . we had had a lot of their main offerings dining at darwins on 4th in sarasota so we stuck to some small batch offerings which were great . i especially loved the unite red hot which had a hint of pepper - y heat . we also picked up a bottle of their collab with cigar city which we drank a couple nights later and it was delicious ! can ' t wait to go back !
although the brewery is small and in a weird location , i had to give it 5 stars because of the reason it exists . . . good beer . it ' s located next to mckechnie field ( the pittsburgh pirates have spring training here ) . the parking lot is in the back of the brewery and is rather small . i enjoyed a hidalgo and my friend tried the ayawasca . both were amazing ! the quality of the beers is really high and that ' s why i feel this brewery deserves 5 stars . the tasting room is very small , although they do have an outdoor / indoor seating arrangement . there was one bartender on staff on the particular wednesday night we visited and she was very attentive and kind . i ' d go back if it were closer to my home ! !
we stopped here on our way to st . pete for the weekend . nice tasting room but it is kind of small . we got there just after it opened at 4 : 00 pm on a friday . there were only 3 other people in there . evidently , the brewery is
andean inspired .
the flavors in the beers are focused on peruvian spices , peppers , etc . they have several core beers : a west coast ipa , helles lager , german pils and a tangerine wheat . i had the summadaze ipa ( west coast ipa ) . it was crisp and clean , not too malty with a nice hop flavor . i also tried the tangerine wheat ( too bready for me ) . decent place . best brewery in bradenton in my opinion .
i meet stuart and brady on a friday evening at lola’s pergola ( pictured at top ) , on darwin’s tourist seaport strip of cullens bay . the bar’s theme was recently described in a national publication as “carnival - on - acid” , and that’s not a bad description . the one mile fellas have just dropped off their kegs and are having a beer and a burger with one of the proprietors , a gentleman named mulga matt , when i meet them .
the colourful lola’s pergola is the best - priced and best - vibed place to find one mile brews , standing alongside others on the beer list such as prancing pony’s pale ale or matso’s mango beer . down at darwin’s visitor - friendly waterfront , the precinct taps three one mile beers : their rdo bright ale , no limits ipa ( using centennial , mosaic and galaxy hops ) , and otto’s red ale . each of these has a local name that decidedly veers away from kitschiness – no tacky crocs or goannas in these labels . but , of course , trying to win the devotion of local drinkers remains the dilemma of the darwin craft brewers , and , while you ' ll also find the likes of young henrys , stone & wood and prancing pony there , most of the craft offerings at the precinct ( pictured below ) come from the big breweries : 4 pines , james squire , little creatures and so on .
i ' ve had some of their drafts around bradenton but on a perfect saturday we made it a point to visit the source . excellent brews at a perfect location with a great mix of indoor and outdoor seating . very family and dog friendly environment right across from the ballpark . they feature your typical brewery set up with some tvs , bags and jenga for entertainment . also a variety of visiting food trucks lined up for set times each day . looking forward to coming back with some friends .
fantastic brewery located right by the baseball stadium . summerdayz is probably the best locally produced ipa full of hoppy goodness with great flavor balance , but there are many other great beers on the menu , from wheat beers thru porters . the bar staff are fantastic , knowledgeable , friendly , professional & super customer centric . food is available to order from local vendors & or food trucks that park at darwins . music is available frequently & especially we love trivia night on thursdays , great fun , great competition
stuart and bardy have no qualms about admitting that it’s been a hard , slow process ; but with the support of their partners , the one mile brewery continues to grow , and alongside it , the opportunities for darwinians to drink tasty beers grows too . in the meantime – at least on a friday night at a carnival - on - acid bar , over a couple of their finest beers and a good burger – they seem to be enjoying themselves . they certainly gave me an old - fashioned beery and boisterous welcome to the top end .
this is a cute little brewery in bradenton that i ' ve been wanting to see for a while . after hiking at emerson point park , i decided it was time . the parking is behind the building which confused me for a second , but once i figured that out , i was in for a treat . the bartender was nice and helpful as we decided the beers for our flight . i enjoyed the beers i had , and i liked the intimate feel of the place . as people filed in , they sat at the bar so it was nice and cozy . i will definitely be back !
i’m visiting darwin for the first time and i quite agree . normally the most abstemious of beverage connoisseurs , i find myself suddenly drawn to one or another hotel porch with a pot of something ( anything ! ) at midday . maybe two pots . maybe three . the bartender is almost invariably a young lady from ireland , or northern ireland . another lazy - afternoon drinker will probably start a conversation with you , and if not , you can stretch out australia’s finest example of print media , the nt news , or eavesdrop on passers - by as they chatter in indonesian , greek , laragiya , spanish , hindi , mandarin , thai , dutch or english . it’s all very productive and wonderful .
this place is truly remote . it’s a small port city , and it’s unbelievably distant from the clustered population centres of south - eastern australia ; its nearest urban centres are in fact spread through the archipelagos of south east asia . it’s about as close to kuala lumpur as it is sydney . so freighting anything from
south
– and that’s almost anywhere else in australia , mind you – costs a significant amount . and pretty much everything needs to be brought in : hops and grains come from thousands of kilometres away . on the other hand , while most of the territory’s water is sourced from bores , darwin has good surface water : the best in australia , i’m told by stuart brown and bardy bayram of one mile brewing company .

we were headed to another place just down the road . you know the place , no parking , we’ll charge you for valet or we’ll charge you to park in our lot . and , oh , you have to wait for us to get around t
ous place . there were quite a few people there , but neither parking nor a seat was a problem .
after a couple samples , they had this great little wit that surprised me . my friend saw the german pilsner and it was love at first taste . the ompah band was amusing and encouraged
then , looking over the schnitzel menu , the cook explained in his german accent what they were out of . we chose the biergarten
brats and instantly knew why they were out of other dishes . it was real , i’ve had it in germany years ago and it was delicious .
oh , i can’t forget the german cheese with pretzels . it didnt survive the short wait for our brats to arrive .
ss , when i head into bradenton next time , i won’t detour . this is much better !
i really enjoy the team , ambiance and brew at darwins . i am a member of the band that plays music there on monday nights and during the breaks i enjoy a pint of their pirata pilsner - it ' s full bodie
. sarah and dj keep us and the audience of primarily musicians very satisfied .
food is also available through epic eats - a food truck that sits on the darwins property . they have a great menu and a set of pens that you can use to add a bit of art to their vehicle .
our first visit and what a treat . awesome staff , great beer selection ,
and a fun food truck . we both loved the llama mama milk stout and i thought the guava ale was great . thank you and we will be

as keen home - brewers , stu and bardy have experimented with brewing all kinds of beers , including wheat beers , pale ales and stouts .
to perfect their brew , stu completed a post - graduate brewing course at the university of ballarat .
their experimentation with brewing quickly became a passion . as their experience grew , stu and bardy began to tinker with their set - up to enable them to make bigger quantities and better quality beer .

after a very frustrating and long day , we stopped in a for a drink or two . the parking lot is in the back and for a few minutes , we thought we had arrived before they opened . no , they had just opened and it was a slow afternoon . we ordered two flights to cover the board and i can honestly say , there wasn ' t a beer i didn ' t like . the charapa was a standout but i ' m still a big fan of the llama mama milk stout . they also had some sours / fruit beers on tap at well to keep my main man happy . i love the latin influence in the beers and the complex flavors . our bartender was very helpful and put whatever football game we wanted on the tv . as people filed in , the bar rounded out and we felt very cozy and at home . i now follow them on social media so i don ' t miss a thing ! i ' m looking forward to future trips . i highly recommend stopping in here no matter what your palate calls for !
love the llama mama love the jade it ' s all i got to say . . . . but i will keep writing bc yelp is making me in order to post . the german food truck is delicious . that jeaguer schnitzel is delicious . get it !
very nice space with a huge window that lets you see the brewing floor from the taproom . beer garden is a really nice space . staff were friendly and knowledgeable . kid friendly . cards against humanity for grown ups and apples to apples for kids / families . they don ' t serve food . just across the street from the stadium . llama mama milk stout was great ( and available in cans ! ) and charapa was a very solid porter . i am not a pilsner fan but the bartender offered us a taste of the snowbees pils and it was incredible - very light , delicate , honey and flowers flavor . i was super impressed . flight paddles were the coolest i have ever seen . love the logo , love the vibe , will definitely come back .
first off , i want to say that i love the setup of the bar and outside area . that is just fine . the issue that i have is that they serve nothing that i cared for . the service was great and the joint was clean . parking does suck , however . bottom line : try it for yourself . i won ' t be back until their lineup changes .
really good sampling of beers . not many customers and the bar tender was very friendly and knowledgeable . had a great time !

“oh , it’s fucked , ” mulga says in a gravelly voice . “it’s fucked here . ”
“they don’t go to melbourne , ” mulga reckons . mulga is a memorable character himself : somehow a figure of both reticence and exuberance , he also runs monte’s in alice springs , which i’m assured has a great tap list too .
it’s been a memorable adventure for stuart and bardy , who have known each other for more than two decades . having met in a university context , the two brewers – as well as their partners – seem to form an ideal complement . it , science , law and marketing form the professional background for one mile brewing . although they face some complications with their site in palmerston , the building is an inheritance from bardy’s family – turkish migrants from the days before cyclone tracy hit the town .
cleverly , stu and bardy have come up with their
beer response unit
– a mobile bar with their kegs , available for hire for parties and events around the top end . ( it unfortunately doesn’t make an appearance at the famous mindil beach market , because , strangely , the market isn’t licensed ) . with limited bars opening taps for microbrewers , it’s another way to get in touch with punters . their red ale has also been used by a local pie maker , blended with gravy for a chunky beef pie .
update : as of 2018 , purple mango was closed with the owners looking for buyers .
the n . t . government has thrown a fair whack of money to purple mango to make this happen , so there’s certainly some recognition that the craft beer scene is due to grow . the transient nature of the top end population is something of an obstacle , but the huge numbers of tourists passing through the town provide a great opportunity too . recent reports indicate that wine consumption is starting to compete with beer - guzzling . at least one new venue due to appear throughout the upcoming dry season has contacted one mile about having their beers available , and a brewpub is scheduled to establish itself in a central location later in the year .

porter , a beer that would become the first nationally popular beer style in britain , was first brewed in 1722 in shoreditch , london . as the legend goes , it was commonplace for patrons to request two or three different ales to be combined in their glass to strike their preferred flavor ( there were more beer aficionados back then ) . eventually , an innkeeper named ralph harwood developed a beer that embodied the virtues of each component beer , and he called his brew “entire . ” it swiftly became very popular with the working men at the docks of london ( or “porters” as they were known , yielding a name that finally stuck ) .
within a few years porter had become the most popular style of beer in britain . saloons would offer accommodations to working men with cheap cuts of beef and , of course , porter by the pint . in 1799 , guinness switched entirely ( no pun intended ) to producing porter , which became the beer of the irish working man . in fact , it was porter that would ultimately give rise to a variation known today as the very popular guinness draught , an irish dry stout ( there is some debate over where to draw the line between porters and stouts , or even to draw the line at all ) . but despite its massive popularity , the original style all but vanished by 1973 , replaced mainly by the stout variations created by guinness and others .


quicksilver manufacturing is an american manufacturer of ultralight and light aircraft .

founded in 1972 as eipper formance and later eipper aircraft , the company today claims to be the leading manufacturer of ultralight aircraft in the united states , with the quicksilver type ultralight being used to train more ultralight pilots than any other type .

in october 2015 the company began a reorganization after a difficult year financially , closing its factory in california .

company sales had fallen and efforts to control costs were not successful without the reorganization and a liquidation of some assets .

quicksilver manufacturing

one of the “founding fathers” of the ultralight industry , us company quicksilver aircraft , has ceased manufacturing .
but while rising costs and falling sales have forced closure of its california manufacturing facility , quicksilver representatives say the company is exploring ways to keep the name alive , and continue support for existing owners .

but high fixed costs and ageing manufacturing machinery have recently coincided with a downturn in aircraft sales in the united states , pushing quicksilver over the edge of the cashflow precipice , even after attempting to restructure . while it may eventually prove to be the end of the quicksilver name , the owners are not giving up yet and may look to long - term dealers as potential saviours , as the official legal explanation describes .

quicksilver has been an industry icon since 1972 , when founder dick eipper modified one of his own rigid - wing hang glider designs with an engine as a self - launching glider for american pilots living in areas without suitable launching hills . the design evolved in to an ultralight aircraft for powered cross country flying , first with two - axis control ( elevators and rudder ) and finally three axis control with control column and pedals . quicksilver has sold various versions , from semi - enclosed to float equipped , delivering more than 15 , 000 kits to customers around the world , nearly all of which the company believes are flying .

due to the experimental nature of prototyping and product design , the customer agrees not to withold payment , or hold quicksilver responsible for the failure of designs to perform . customers are responsible for ensuring that the properties and performance of the material meet the part requirements . when the customer submits conflicting 2d control drawings and 3d solid cad files , the 3d solid cad data takes precedence . general tolerances for cnc machined orders are + / - 0 . 005″ for plastic parts , and + / - 0 . 002″ for metal parts . tolerances are not guaranteed .
