Why it's worth checking out

Slipstream Brewing Company brings together a working brewery, bar and kitchen, with its Brisbane home in Yeerongpilly and a second venue, Social House, in Birtinya on the Sunshine Coast. The brewery’s focus is craft beer across traditional and contemporary styles, with a core range available year-round alongside extended and limited releases. The tap list includes lagers, pale ales, XPAs, an IPA, ginger beer, sours, stouts and a barrel-aged anniversary ale, with tasting paddles available at the Birtinya venue.

The Yeerongpilly Bar & Kitchen is the more brewery-focused setting, where diners can eat with a view of the stainless-steel brewing equipment. Its spacious beer garden includes a children’s play area, while the indoor dining room suits meals with family, friends or colleagues. The menu leans towards modern Australian pub fare, with wood-fired pizza made from dough fermented for up to 48 hours, burgers, tacos, steaks, smoked meats and share plates. The Slipstream BBQ Share Platter, with brisket, pulled pork, ribs and three sides, is designed for groups, while the menu also includes vegetarian and vegan choices.

There is plenty happening beyond a standard meal and a beer. The Yeerongpilly venue runs musical bingo, weekly trivia, Taco Tuesday, a steak night and Sunday shares, alongside function options for larger groups. Dogs are welcome in the outdoor beer garden when kept on a lead, and free onsite and street parking is available. The venue is also close to Yeerongpilly train station, which makes it practical for Brisbane gatherings where not everyone is driving.

Social House in Birtinya offers a related but distinct setting, with three outdoor dining areas, booths and a relaxed bar atmosphere. It serves share plates, grilled dishes and seafood, and runs regular events including trivia and Friday afternoon live music. Overall, Slipstream suits beer-focused dinners, casual dates, family meals, team socials and group occasions, with enough space and menu variety to accommodate different types of visits.
