Platt’s Folly  Like Steel River Lager, it is an all malt beer, but fermented warmer and triple hopped to give increased flavor and aroma. We use a blend of Australian and German grains, predominantly New Zealand grown hops and American yeast developed in the Californian gold rush of the 1850’s to make a unique, complex beer. In 1821, John Laurio Platt, Newcastle’s first free settler, was granted 2000 acres of his choice on the Hunter River. He named his estate “Ironbark Hill”, and erected a windmill to harvest timber. However, after his attempts at timber milling, wheat farming and coal mining subsequently proved unsuccessful, the locals came to refer to his land as “Platt’s Folly”. If only he had tried his hand at brewing! Today, Steel River Brewery stands on the banks of the Hunter River adjacent to the site of Platt’s original homestead. Platt's Folly Old World Lager is handcrafted in the style of 19th Century lagers: pure and full flavoured, with no added sugar or preservatives. So enjoy it today and still feel good tomorrow!
