Our Story

As a wee lad in Scotland, our founder Graeme Macaloney had a summer job in a local whisky factory, There he was encouraged to train in fermentation, becoming a ‘doctor of fermentation engineering’. Upon arriving in Victoria, Graeme was inspired to bring traditional Scottish whisky making together with the best of west-coast craft brewing.

Today, with the support of over 700 other passionate whisky and craft beer enthusiasts from coast to coast (our Founder-Owners group), Graeme and our team are proud to bring you the Macaloney’s Island Distillery & Twa Dogs Brewery!
