Western Australia’s true paddock-to-pint beer, brewed with 99% farm-grown barley and wheat straight from our own 3300 acre farm in Bolgart. This isn’t just a beer. It’s a celebration of farmers, the land, and the incredible freshness that comes from working with nature, not against it.
🍻 What’s in the Tin?
We’ve taken everything we know about farming, fermentation, and flavour and poured it into a beer that’s uniquely Western Australian, so we can toast to our farming roots.

We’ve connected the dots back to our roots, using real farm-grown ingredients to craft an ale that’s as bold and balanced as the land which made it.


At Funk, we believe that great beer starts in the soil. Before it ever reaches your glass, it’s nurtured in the paddock by the hands of hardworking farmers who know their land better than anyone.
That’s why we created The Farmer’s Ale—Western Australia’s true paddock-to-pint beer, brewed with regeneratively grown barley and wheat straight from our own 3300 acre farm in Bolgart. This isn’t just a beer. It’s a celebration of farmers, the land, and the incredible freshness that comes from working with nature, not against it.
Every sip tells a story of regenerative farming, pure spring water, and a passion for doing things the right way. No shortcuts. No additives. Just real ingredients, real people, and a beer as honest as the land it comes from.

🍺 Why We Made This Beer
Funk has always been about challenging the norm and believing that nature knows best. Since 2012, we’ve been known for pushing boundaries in juice and cider, and now, we’re bringing that same spirit to beer.
But this isn’t just about brewing another ale. This is about telling a bigger story—one that connects the bush to the city, the farmer to the drinker, and the land to your glass.
As Dustin, our farmer and founder, puts it:
"This beer represents for me the connection between the bush and the city, nature and humans, a lovely reminder of our unity with nature”
