On the Hops is A fortnightly panel made from local retailers, brewers, judges and connoisseurs who meet regularly to pick the standout brews from dozens of beers tasted blind. They bring you the tastiest, freshest, most delicious beer around.
Volume 1
This is a fantastic lineup of local crafties that made the roster for the first volume of Liquor Barons new On the Hops program. With standout beers that have developed local cult followings around Perth, the panel has included Otherside, Nail, Boston Brewing, Black Brewing, Beerfarm and Cheeky Monkey in the first of many epic volumes of beer.

Volume 2
"The Liquor Barons Beer Panel rides again, presenting six
more stand-out picks from hours of ‘rigorous’ blind-tasting! We were mindful of the changing seasons and the added appeal of darker, more malt-forward options, but these are the brews that really hit the mark; in terms of being exceptional representatives of style and, essentially, just really great drinking. NEIPA’s may continue to be ‘beer of the moment’, but we’d encourage you to head off the beaten beer-track, starting with the On The Hops six-pack!"

Volume 3
Winter is here, but that’s no reason to put your beer drinking on the back-burner. Red wine and spirits come into their own, as does the darker end of the beer spectrum - including the Belgian Dubbel, Black IPA, Porter and Stout selected by the beer panel in our latest round of blind tastings. We’re especially pleased to squeeze a classic Belgian Abbey Ale into this six-pack; we dearly hope it inspires further exploration of that country’s marvellous monastic-brewing traditions. Add two more beers that would impress in any season, and On The Hops Edition #3 stands extra tall!
VOLUME 4
Spring can bring us a real mixed bag meteorologically, so ‘On The Hops’ IV delivers a marvellous mixed- six for any kind of weather. We’ve selected a clean, crisp, German-style lager that’s ideal for the season’s first BBQ, but also included a hop-forward, American-style stout that still delivers the nourishing warmth of rich, dark malts when the cold bites back. There’s plenty to savour between those two extremes too; each brew being a distinct and exceptional example of its style, and all six providing a beer journey that’s well worth taking... It’s an all-Australian six-pack too, so imbibe with pride!

Volume 5
Pull those BBQ’s, boardshorts and bathers out of storage; the sun is shining and the heat is just around the corner!
Don’t forget a bag of ice either, because you’ll want to serve these fine summer brews cold - not too cold, though; refreshment and flavour are not mutually exclusive when it comes to our six selections for the festive run into Christmas. Then, of course, there’s Anna Pavlovah - the first time Little Creatures has collaborated with a retail group, and a beer that provides ‘Pacific Ale’ refreshment AND a delicious splash of Pavlovian indulgence! Pacific? More like Indian Ocean sunshine...
Volume 6
Good summer drinking from across the beer spectrum - that’s what we’ve sought to offer with this latest “On The Hops” six-pack. The stylistic journey runs from classic German Lager to new world India Pale Ale (IPA), with sojourns through the Belgian, artisanal traditions of the Fruit Sour and Saison; all crafted by some of Australia and New Zealand’s finest breweries. This February - March 2020 selection also features our first exclusive “On The Hops” brew, as Perth’s own Innate Brewers deliver a batch of its acclaimed seasonal release, The Juice, IS EXCLUSIVE to participating Liquor Barons stores. Please enjoy your trip!
Beer of the Month special: 27 January - 22 February, 2020
Beer of the month
Our classic IPA, it is at the heart & soul of everything we do. Our IPA is the only beer we made for the first two years almost, you could say we were Fixation. Inspired by the American West Coast style, with pine and fruity aromas, robust flavour and firm bitterness, but beautifully balanced. Punchy with a dry finish.
