Our History

The Buffalo Brewery first began in 1902 by Messrs Bryant and Sheil Brothers. The Buffalo Brewery was the fourth of the breweries built by this firm. The brewery was positioned on this site due to the crystal clear water that the spring produces. At the time the brewery was particularly popular as it was close to the booming metropolis of Wangaratta and provided freshly brewed beer which was different to that of the beer provided by other hotels in the area which relied on supplies from Melbourne. The beer from Melbourne was shaken by long train journeys and exposed to long periods of summer heat before being delivered to its destination. The brewery then lay dormant for almost 50 years before continuing operation around 15 years ago.
