Your guide to Gold Coast distilleries

It's time to get into the spirit.

As a bunch of discernible consumers of all alcoholic beverages, it was only a matter of time before the Gold Coast began to take heed and give us craft distilleries. Gin is having a moment. Whisky has always grabbed a particular pocket of drinkers, and vodka is a staple that, although refreshing on its own, is an excellent base for many delicious cocktails we’ve come to love on the regular (espresso martini, anyone?).

Being one of Australia’s most innovative business start-up areas and having proximity to quality produce and botanicals from the Southeast corner of Queensland and the Northern Rivers, our distilleries were always going to be a success no matter what shape or format they came in.

As there’s a sizeable collection for you to consider either buying from or visiting, we run down the distilleries we deem must-visits and precisely what they offer.

Panezski Artisan Distillery

For a long time, vodka has had strong associations with the northern hemisphere. However, take a closer look at where some of the best vodkas are being produced, and you’ll notice such countries as the USA, France and Poland continually pop up — we may even see Australia soon in that mix. This family-owned distillery in Southport takes their Polish heritage seriously, dishing up some fine examples of vodka and gin with fantastic attention taken from the start, right through to bottling.

Husk Distillery

Ok, so we cheated on this one (not technically a Gold Coast distillery, but we love it so much). Pretty hues of pink and purple have made Husk’s Ink gin one of the most recognisable sips in the past few years. Often punctuated with a sprig of rosemary, you’ll find yourself in a little slice of Northern NSW heaven at their picturesque distillery in the removed countryside spot of Tumbulgum. Although across the border, pack the car with blankets and friends and make an afternoon of it.

Miami’s meow-vellous new brewery

In a very exciting Gold Coast first, a beer bar dedicated to Japanese brews has opened in Miami and it’s already a firm favourite amongst the locals. Roji Cat is vibrant, fresh and exciting and it’s perfectly at home, next to stalwart fave Granddad Jacks, on Lemana Lane.

Food at Roji Cat, Miami (Image: © 2024 Inside Gold Coast)

Reminiscent of the neon-laden Dotonbori district of Osaka and downtown Tokyo’s Shinjuku district, the entirely indoor space has been decked out to resemble an authentic, local alleyway complete with signage, lanterns and a cabinet displaying a huge collection of Bearbricks (a beloved cartoon-style bear) all brought over from Japan.

Interior of Roji Cat, Miami (Image: © 2024 Inside Gold Coast)

High tables run along the length of the space, brew tanks take up a huge corner in the back and there’s an open kitchen so you can watch your dishes being prepared. The vibe is high instantly upon entering the space and it’s all exactly what you’d expect to see when visiting a Japanese beer bar.

Perhaps the most exciting part though, is a specialty (sound proof) karaoke room just off the main bar area where you and your crew can belt out a tune to your heart’s content without a single note being heard outside. There’s also an electric darts room with plenty of spots to play and couches to lounge about on while you beat your mates.

Now let’s chat beer. Head Brewer Toshi, whose work you would know from Black Hops, is the most passionate and knowledgeable man on the planet when it comes to beer. There are 12 brews on tap AND a diverse sake bar featuring 24 types of sake, all handpicked by Toshi who has over 20 years brewing experience.

Cocktails include the likes of a signature Tokyo Sour and the signature beer is Toshi’s Japanese Rice Lager which we tried and tested and can confirm, is the goods.

Food at Roji Cat, Miami (Image: © 2024 Inside Gold Coast)

There’s food of course and the menu is filled with elevated, Japanese street food crafted by Japanese culinary expert and Head Chef Helen Rissen. Think Robata Skewers, sweet and spicy Roji Cat Karaage, Gyoza, Sashimi, Miso Corn (love you) and burgers including a Bug Burger with a tempura Moreton Bay Bug, spicy Japanese coleslaw and Kewpie mayo. We’ll take all of that thank you so much.

Interior of Roji Cat, Miami (Image: © 2024 Inside Gold Coast)

The entire operation is a family-run affair celebrating close family friend Toshi’s heritage and a shared love of Japanese culture, vibrant food scene and bustling nightlife. All of which has been very obviously and meticulously incorporated into Roji Cat to bring us the Japanese Beer Bar we didn’t know we so desperately needed.

Interior of Roji Cat, Miami (Image: © 2024 Inside Gold Coast)

Do yourself a favour and head down to Miami to see what all the fuss is about and find yourself transported to Japan, right in the heart of the Gold Coast.

When: Thursday and Friday 4pm to 10pm. Saturday and Sunday 12pm to 10pm

Forget prince charming, fairytale-inspired sips are all we need

If you’re somewhat of a connoisseur when it comes to artisanal creations of the distilled variety – prepare your tastebuds, we’re about to go on a magic carpet ride. Our destination? A magical, albeit not-so-faraway land by the name of Granddad Jacks. Because Miami’s beloved and libationally-blessed local has been working harder than one of the Seven Dwarfs to unveil a spellbinding new sips menu. Distill our beating hearts!

Launching a fresh curation of concoctions that could coax Sleeping Beauty herself from her 100-year slumber – if you haven’t already guessed from the Hansel and Gretel-esque crumbs we’ve not-so-subtly been sprinkling about, the new seasonal menu is a boozy take on all the most iconic bedtime tales.

Little Red Riding Hood Cocktail, Granddad Jack's, Miami (image supplied)

Leaning in to all things fairytale, the Granddad Jack’s crew has bestowed upon us bewitching, fable-inspired concoctions like the Little Red Riding Hood, infused with fruity notes of Cherry, Cinnamon, Maple & Grapefruit Syrup, and of course (two types of!) GJ’s signature, handcrafted Gin. And if there’s one thing we love more than a rendezvous with our beloved local, it’s discovering that they’ve been brewing up a bunch of fantastical new elixirs to woo us with.

Granddad Jack's (Image: © 2020 Inside Gold Coast)

If you’re partial to a good drop, then the hero of this particular tale is a name that needs no introduction. A stone’s throw from Miami’s sand-kissed shores, Granddad Jacks is an institution amongst the GC’s discerning imbibers. A family affair churning out award-winning spirits, we blinked, and somehow the Gold Coast’s first craft gin and whisky distillery has already been going strong for some five years now.

Hansel & Gretel Cocktail, Granddad Jack's, Miami (image supplied)

Along with incredible sips, Miami’s resident distillery and taproom is known for their ability to spin a riveting yarn – we mean, the legendary life and legacy of the actual Granddad Jack deserves a mini-series in its own right (and lbh, a ripper distillery in your honour is way cooler).

In fact, the GJ crew first and foremost consider themselves storytellers, who just so happen to make spirits (and darn good ones at that).

Fairytale inspired cocktails at Granddad Jacks, Miami (Image: © 2024 Inside Gold Coast)

The new menu is no exception, dialling up the drama to deliver an immersive tasting journey that might just be their most captivating yet. Fully committing to the fairytale theme – which, for the record, our inner 90’s kids are 100% here for – the storybook-style menu is a page turner in and of itself.

With everything from syrups to spirits made on site, each cocktail comes with its own backstory, and ingredients hand-picked as an homage to its respective tale. Such as the Hansel & Gretel, a decadent Coffee Liqueur infused number, with notes of Orange Syrup, Chocolate Bitters, Spice and Marshmallow Cream, reminiscent of a comforting slice of freshly-baked cake and coffee… but y’know, in liquor form. #Sold

Now, we wouldn’t want to ruin the magic by revealing all of the tricks up their sleeve – but we would be remiss not to at least mention the Beauty & The Beast inspired Spellbound, a drink tantalising as it is theatrical. A take on the classic cocktail, this aperitif-style showstopper features hints of house-made Last Word syrup, lime and maraschino cherry, mixed with GJ’s signature easy-to-drink Greenhouse Gin, finished with rose petals and cherry smoke (should you wish) – we’re predicting love at taste here, folks.

So move over Fairy Godmother – Granddad Jacks just granted all our cocktail wishes. Just don’t dilly-dally – we wouldn’t want anyone turning into a pumpkin on our watch.

So in honour of the juniper juice we all know and love, here are the best spots to get your gin fix this Gin Day – or, let’s be honest, any day ending in “y”.

If there’s one place that knows its way around a gin cocktail, it’s the OG of Gold Coast distilling – Granddad Jack’s. They’ve seriously upped the ante with their bold new cocktail menu inspired by the Seven Man-Made Wonders of the World. Each drink is a flavour-packed tribute to an architectural icon – think a dry martini-style nod to the Great Wall of China with bold mandarin and umami notes, or a silky, spiced number inspired by the Taj Mahal. There’s even a foamy, tart twist on Chicha Morada repping Machu Picchu. Honestly, it’s a round-the-world trip without leaving Miami (and without needing a passport – bonus!).

Our pick: The Seymour Street, made with their house Greenhouse Gin, fresh lime juice and a dash of eucalyptus. It’s like sipping on an Aussie summer in a glass.
