SOUTHPAW BREWING

Wine and sports. It happens sometimes, but it’s not the image typically evoked when anticipating an evening at the stadium. Or the lounge. Or the barbeque, with a radio. It’s beer. We drink beer at the pub, watching the Warriors come so close again. At the stadium, quickly, to avoid warming the plastic bottles. Around the grilling of grey sausages, halting conversation at the appropriate ‘wicket’. Cam and Penny of Southpaw Brewing are keenly aware of the romance between beer and sports. Southpaw brewing is branded in homage to the pairing, but with a twist. Both Cam and Penny are left-handed. Each cunningly named can of Southpaw is a reference to a left-handed sports technique or hero, itself a metaphor for something unex-pected, which is what you’ll experience in a Southpaw can. Talented underdogs of the beer industry, Southpaw’s Head Brewer Cam has an impressive resume, winning numerous awards for other breweries. Southpaw is his opportunity to shine under his own banner, and he already has his own spread of awards to prove it.
