Tasting Platter The Mighty Hunter Valley

The Mighty Hunter Valley

Originally a brick works that diversified into terracotta pottery for pipes and tiles, the site has undergone many changes while maintaining its heritage listing. Additions by previous owners included accommodation, a restaurant and a brewery, while maintaining a link to the past through its name – Potters Hotel Brewery Resort. The current owners Foghorn Brewery renamed it The Mighty Hunter Valley and upgraded and modernised the facilities.

Located five minutes from Cessnock or 20 minutes from Singleton in the New South Wales Hunter Valley, it is in the heart of wine country. Driving there takes you past many picturesque vineyards, most of which offer cellar door sales and tasting.

The five heritage listed brick kilns are an easy way to find the brewery as they can be seen from the road. After parking, we walked around them to take a few pictures before heading inside. Visible from the bar, the brewery has tours available, but not on the day we visited. Instead, we chose a beer tasting, buying a paddle each. You choose four beers per tasting depending on your preference.

We sat outside under a veranda to drink and relax. Deciding that we would have lunch there too, we ordered at the adjacent restaurant and had several more relaxing beers before eating.

We enjoyed going here, the beer was great and the meals delicious. The outdoor setting in the shade was relaxing and peaceful.
