Melbourne folk may well know a Footscray icon called Hop Nation. In ten short years, they have become one of the country’s most loved craft breweries, known for their innovative releases and strong sense of community.
Each year they support a local charity, someone that is committed to creating meaningful change. We were stoked to get the call that in 2025, Hop Nation chose us!
For all of June, 5% of their flagship The Heart Pale Ale was donated to Good Cycles – from their own taphouse through to pints poured in pubs and 6 packs from independent bottle shops.Â
To celebrate, Hop Nation invited us for a community bike ride and a pop-up servicing. Despite the gloomy clouds, a great crew joined us for a ride around the west, ahead of the new Veloway opening (conveniently right by Hop Nation!)
Thank you so much to all that supported this initiative!Â
