🧱 Here is some incredible photography & history courtesy of Joe Wooding from the Albury & District Historical Society. 🙌🏼
.
🎩 George Henry Billson (1844-1927) was born in Lancashire, England, eldest of five children of George Billson (1817-1886) and his wife Isabella. 💃🏼
.
🚢 The family migrated to Adelaide in 1848, subsequently joining the 1850s California gold rush. 💰
.
🦘 Returning to Australia in 1852, they opened a store in Bendigo before settling in Wooragee in 1856 where they built a 2-storey hotel. 🛏
.
🍺 The family bought the Ovens Brewery in 1865. In 1879, George Henry moved to Albury, buying the former Colonial Porter Brewery near the Union Bridge from Richard O’Keeffe & Co. Billson immediately spent more than £3,000 on improvements. 🏗
.
🦁 Younger brother Alfred Arthur Billson (1858-1930) joined his father in the Beechworth operation in 1882. 💪🏼
.
🤩 Travellers could not miss Billson’s Brewery near the Union Bridge over the Murray. 🌊
.
🤴🏻 GH Billson served as mayor 1885-1886 and again in 1893. He relocated to Melbourne in 1896, setting up a cordial and aerated water factory in Elsternwick. He was elected to St Kilda City Council (1901-1911) and mayor in 1909. 🎠
.
🤝 Alfred Arthur and the Albury operation amalgamated in 1911, becoming the Border United Co-op Breweries Ltd. Two years later the brewery was sold to Murray Breweries Pty Ltd. 🍹
.
🤵🏼 Another brother, Walter J Billson ran a brewery at 674 Dean Street from 1896. He was an Albury alderman 1896-1906 and mayor 1899-1900, again in 1902. ⭐️

💪🏼 Billson’s Brewery has stood tall & continuously manufactured for 150 years. 🍻
.
🌋 There has been many seemingly insurmountable challenges throughout that time, however none quite like Covid-19. 🦠
.
🥊 Whilst this devastating virus will test each & every one of us, together we will make it out the other side. 🌤
.
💔 As of today, we have made the difficult yet necessary decision to close our barbershop, speakeasy, factory viewing deck, cafe & carriage museum. 🙅🏻‍♀️
.
🎁 For now, our retail store will remain open, albeit without tastings. We will also offer takeaway jaffles & coffee. *These will be free to all teachers & healthcare workers. ⛑
.
🏭 Our factory will continue to produce small batch beverages & we will find a way to launch new products in the coming months. 🚀
.
🚚 Our focus has moved to home delivery.
Excluding WA & NT, we have introduced free freight on all website orders over $100. Simply use the code ‘Centurion’.🍹 .
🍓 We have a limited number of our Strawberry Gin bottles now available online! 💃🏼
.
🙌🏼 We’d like to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the tremendous amount of support everyone has shown us. We will emerge from this stronger than ever. 🤺 #keeplocalalive ❤️
.
🦧 Stay safe! Love Flic, Nath & Charlie 🐻

🍓 Introducing Billson’s Beechworth Strawberry Gin!! 💃🏼
.
🌈 This limited edition small batch is made with 1000’s of big delicious strawberries, hand picked from our sweet neighbours at Beechworth Berries. 👩🏻‍🌾
.
💕 We were desperate to support & collaborate with these legends after hearing about their excess of beautiful strawberries. Sadly, this was due to the mass exodus of tourists during the recent bushfires. 👩🏼‍🚒
.
🐥 Beechworth Berries is a small family farm with a focus on sustainability. 🌎 Bob & the team grow some of the best berries in the world. We highly recommend paying them a visit & following their amazing adventures. @beechworthberries 🥰
.
🏔 This special gin is made entirely from scratch, using the finest grain & alpine spring water drawn from a 150 year old red brick well on site. It’s triple distilled & triple filtered for exceptional purity. 💎
.
🤺 To make 300 bottles, Tony & Sam individually sliced over 5,000 strawberries! Other botanicals include juniper, mountain pepper & orange. 🍊
.
💧 It’s perfect with a splash of sparkling water. Better yet, if you are feeling extra adventurous, try our new favourite - Strawberry Gin & Creamy Soda!! 🎪
.
✍🏻 Each bottle is hand filled, labeled, signed & numbered. We’re also included a neck tag with a map to the berry farm so you can go & pick your own! 👅
.
🎁 With such a limited amount, these are now exclusively available via our cellar door in Beechworth. If there are any left following the weekend, we’ll make them available within our online store. 🦄
.
🍸 Cheers! Flic, Nath & Charlie 🐻

🎩 29 Last Street Beechworth 🥃

📸 Here is a historic photograph of the Billson’s coopers hard at work. 💪🏼
.
🕯Traditionally, a cooper is someone who makes wooden, staved vessels, held together with wooden or metal hoops. 🪓
.
🎩 There were several divisions in the cooper's craft. The "dry" cooper made containers that would be used to ship dry goods such as cereals, nails, tobacco, fruits, and vegetables. 🥬
.
🧨 The "dry-tight" cooper made casks designed to keep dry goods in and moisture out. Gunpowder and flour casks are examples of a dry-tight cooper's work.💥
.
🧺 The "white" cooper made straight-staved containers like washtubs, buckets, and butter churns, which would hold water and other liquids but did not allow shipping of the liquids. 🧈
.
💧 The "wet" cooper made casks for long-term storage and transportation of liquids that could even be under pressure, as with beer. 🍺
.
⛵️ The "general" cooper worked on ships, on the docks, in breweries, wineries and distilleries, and in warehouses, and was responsible for cargo while in storage or transit. 🍇
.
🚂 Many coopers worked for breweries such as Billson’s. They made the large wooden vats in which beer was brewed. They also made the wooden kegs in which the beer was shipped to liquor retailers. 🥃
.
🏋🏻‍♂️ Beer kegs had to be particularly strong in order to contain the pressure of the fermenting liquid, and the rough handling they received when transported over long distances, to pubs where they were rolled into tap-rooms or were lowered into cellars. 🕺🏼
.
🥰 one day, we’d love to have a cooper join our team so that we can go back to making our own barrels on-site. 🤞🏼
