Were hiring a Logistics Manager!

About Heaps Normal

Were normalising mindful drinking by brewing beer that tastes so good you wont miss the alcohol. Were not here to talk about being sober or hold that up as the end goal. Whether youre taking a night off or ditching the booze for life we reckon its time to talk about something more interesting. Whether thats having a good time a good chat and a good drink. Were the weirdos redefining normal for the better and celebrating people who do the same.

Our values

Shout the first round : Give first and be a good human. We dont wait to be asked. We go out of our way to do whats right for our team our community and our environment.

Return the empties : We never walk past a problem. Whether its a spot fire or a raging inferno we run towards the fire.

Build each other up : We look after ourselves and look out for our mates. This means investing in people always putting family first and elevating those we interact with.
