LOCAL FOOD HEROES

I will be interviewing and photographing some of the Local Food Heroes of the Illawarra in the style of the BBC show Local Food Heroes. A Local Food Hero offers food of a high quality, sourcing locally where possible and nominated by readers of this blog and my past experiences. If you know of a local food hero or foodie haven email illawarrafood@gmail.com

I first visited the Five Islands Brewing Company in 2006 and soon fell in love with the great food and fantastic beer made on the premises. Then there's the location - directly opposite  North Wollongong Beach and next to the Wollongong Entertainment Centre.

Today I found out that they recently won three bronze and one silver  in the Australian Beer Awards. Well done to 'Pig Dog' and his team.

"Last weeks Australian Beer Awards held in Melbourne proved a successful outing for Five Islands Brewery, snagging four medals. Our Dapto Draught and Barbeerian Wit both received bronze medals, whilst the Bulli Black  and Rust fared even better with silver medals. Congrats to the FIBC brew team of Andrew, Shaun and Ashur…well done boys." [ Read more on their Wordpress blog ]
