History

In 1996 John Stallwood registered the company, Nail Brewing Australia. On 23 March 2000 Norman Moore (Minister for Racing, Gaming and Liquor) officially opened Nail Brewing's first microbrewery at Bobby Dazzler's Ale House,[4] (a pub in Murray Street, Perth), releasing Nail Ale, an Australian style Pale Ale.[5] On 9 April 2004 Stallwood was assaulted after intervening in a fight in Fremantle, falling into a coma for ten days,[6] [7] Stallwood's head injuries resulted in a titanium plate being inserted in his skull. As a result, Nail Brewing operations stopped and the equipment was sold.[7]

In 2006 Stallwood re-commenced brewing at Jarrah Jacks brewery in Pemberton.[8] In December 2007 Nail Brewing relocated to Edith Cowan University's Joondalup campus.[8] In late 2010 Nail Brewing produced the most expensive bottle of beer in the world, Antarctic Nail Ale, which was made with water melted from a block of Antarctic ice.[1] [2] The ice was collected by the crew of the Sea Shepherd by helicopter from an iceberg in the Southern Ocean, then flown to Tasmania, melted and transported to Perth. Only thirty bottles were produced, with the first bottle auctioned for A$800 on 3 November 2011, with a second selling, on 19 November 2011, for A$1,850 at a fund-raising event in Sydney.[6] All proceeds from the sales of the ale went to the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society.[6] The previous record holder was The End of The World, produced by Scottish brewers, Brewdog in July 2010.[9] [10]

In January 2012 the Feral Brewing Company and Nail Brewing formed Brewcorp Pty Ltd developing a brewhouse and warehouse facilities in Bassendean.[11] [12]
