The Ponies at the Prancing Pony Brewery love beer and proudly operate as an Independent Brewery in the Adelaide Hills. We believe in people making beer for people and building a community.
The story of the Pony goes back, when our Co-founder and Head Brewer, Frank had a batch of his home brew boil over on the stove. Corinna, his wife, now CEO of the Prancing Pony then banned him to the shed as a result. By then, Frank already had a fictitious brewery called ‘Prancing Pony Brewery’ in his head when gluing labels to each bottle he filled. He probably did all this to impress Corinna.
Lots of Pony beer was shared with friends and one Sunday afternoon, after a long session, a couple of close friends said, ‘Let’s start a real brewery’. Together, we eventually formed a company with the purpose of bringing the beer we all love to life. On the 1st of December, 2012, Prancing Pony Brewery pulled up the roller door and in 2015, the brewery relocated to a much bigger site in Totness – and where the Hell is Totness.
