Caledonia Brewing

Caledonia Brewing is a fantastic addition to the downtown Dunedin brewery scene and one of those places that always feels welcoming and comfortable the moment you walk in. The atmosphere is relaxed, authentic, and exactly the kind of local establishment that helps make Dunedin such a special community. I have always enjoyed the beer selection here, especially the delicious porters, and Linnea is an incredible bartender who always provides great conversation and friendly service. It is also a great place to stop in during the afternoon, enjoy a drink, and take advantage of the Wi-Fi while getting some work done. Whether you are meeting friends, stopping in after a walk or bike ride, or simply looking for a great local brewery experience, Caledonia Brewing is consistently enjoyable. One of the things I appreciate most is how places like this contribute to the personality and charm of Dunedin. Supporting local businesses like Caledonia Brewing helps keep the community vibrant, independent, and unique. Highly recommended if you are spending time in downtown Dunedin and looking for a great local brewery experience.

A breath if fresh air for my brewery experience as an ex-Zymurgist and BJCP Certified Judge. For the most part, nothing is sacred... like a Double Dry Hopped American IPA I saw recently, 5.2% abv and 54 IBU. THIS place has Classic Beer Styles faithfully represented. The Half Arse Scottish (I'd have done the Rat's Ass, but I'm driving).has a lightly sulfury note that resolves within ~8min. just like my pre-distillation 50:50 2 row pale and peated malt hopless brew. Nice space, not too much infrastrucutre so you are paying for their upfit. Polished concrete.floors, exposed rafters, did I mention the great beer? Not much for food, plenty of snacks. 7:30 is the witching hour for trivia, etc.. decent parking, all.on Main Street.

A very cozy bar that fits Dunedin's vibe perfectly! Good for watching sports games, and they have events almost every day. They also have board games to play, and it is a kid-friendly place.

Caledonia Brewing is on the Tag-a-Brew Trail. I was in the area and wanted to collect some tags and I had time to stop in for some. I ordered a flight, four in the flight, so I could try several different brews. The bartender was friendly and knowledgeable, and we talked about their beer and their place. I'm not sure if they had a food menu as I wasn't ordering any food on this stop. I would like to go again to try more!

A great Brewery with a lot of choices for all craft beer lovers. Very friendly and helpful staff, thanks Josh. They have retro music video nights and trivia nights which are sooo much fun. Whenever my wife and I are in the area, we always make sure to come in and have a few beers.
