Salvaged Ale Single Malt Whisky

Our distillery sits right next door to our good mates at 4 Pines Brewery. They make a lot of kegged beer for drinking in pubs Australia-wide. But when COVID hit in 2020, and suddenly the world came to a standstill, pubs closed their doors and their kegged beer had suddenly nowhere to go! It was a rough time for everyone in the booze biz. 

With Manly Spirits being all about sustainable practices and 4 Pines being a certified B Corp, the idea of pouring perfectly good beer down the drain just didn’t sit right with us. So, we decided to get creative and turn this challenge into something new—and 4 Pines was all in on the experiment. We salvaged their Kolsch beer and funnelled it into our whisky stills.

The result? As with any whisky, you never quite know what you’ve got until it’s had time to mature. Well, this beauty has been resting for four years, and let us tell you—it’s turned out to be a real stunner. The name says it all—Salvaged Ale Whisky—no marketing fluff, just straight-up goodness. An adventurous hop-inspired whisky worth every drop of the experiment. 

Distilled on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, expertly crafted with a balance of tradition & innovation. Captured in contemporary glass, sculptured with the eroded textures of weathered sandstone cliffs that border our coastline & sealed with a truly unique signature Sydney sandstone stopper.
