Overview
When you name your brewery after monstrous Japanese creatures, you're obviously aiming to grab attention. When Godzilla tramples its way across the planet, it doesn't go unnoticed after all. Kaiju! Beer's brews have happily followed in the eponymous class of critters' giant footsteps, too, picking up a huge swathe of accolades — including three consecutive top ten placings in the annual Hottest 100 Australian Craft Brews countdown.
If you're going to opt for just one beer, our pick is the Kaiju Krush! Tropical Pale Ale. This is an easy-drinking, super-clean brew that is big on tropical flavours as its name suggests. It's also made from a blend of US, Australian and New Zealand hops — because, if you've seen a monster movie, you'll know that kaiju know no bounds.
Kaiju! Beer's brews are only available in stores, and its Dandenong South brewery isn't open to the public — however, if you're a fan, check out its online merch shop for everything from t-shirts and hoodies to sunnies and beach towels.
