Nail Brewing started in 2000 as the first brewery in the Perth CBD. In 2004, John was assaulted and received an acute head injury from a one-hit coward punch during a night out in Fremantle, WA. The tragic repercussions of this meant that as well as his severe injuries he had to shut his brewery down. After 2 years of recovery, John got back into brewing as a Gypsy brewer, brewing Nail beers in different locations. John has brewed at Edith Cowan University Joondalup(ECU) for 6 years and in 2012 started brewing in his own brewery again in Bassendean. In 2016, Nail Brewing moved to a bigger production warehouse, 500 meters along, on Collier Road Bassendean. Nail Brewing has now won a total of 11 golds at AIBA. And recently, world wide recognition at the World Beer Cup where Nail VPA won a most sought after Silver medal.
