Entries for 2023/2024 are now closed
Artisan Brewing are pleased to announce the return for its sophomore year of its noble members only club, Quadrivium Aristocracy, offering direct access to exclusive releases & one-off blends.
Another year of intense & thorough toiling is represented in an exclusive collection showcasing a broad range of reserve Belgian styles, including vintage farmhouse ales, abbey ales, barrel-aged beers, master blends & more. We enjoy spending time with family & friends, especially beer loving folks, so memberships will include access to VIP events throughout the year
.So what’s different this year? Memberships for this year will be capped at 120, with current members offered the first priority for renewal. This number will be an additional 50 members than what we could offer last year. Also, after shipping issues last year we have made the decision to keep this year's memberships close to home, therefore we will only be offering memberships for valid Western Australian shipping addresses (No PO Boxes). We will also beintroducing a ‘Pick Up’ Option! If you wish to pick up your delivery instead, we will give you a bonus 4-Pack of current Artisan Brewing beers. The pickup locations are to be confirmed, but we will have locations close to Perth CBD & Denmark.

WHY QUADRIVIUM ARISTOCRACY? | ETYMOLOGY
The word "Quadrivium", means "Four Ways or Crossroads" in Latin, stems from the Pythagoreans in 500 BC. This embraces the four disciplines of: Arithmetic, Geometry, Music, and Astronomy. To better understand the universe, this is the study of numbers, numbers in space, numbers in time, and numbers in space and time. "Aristocracy" is a fancy name for our noble society.
Similarly, the Artisan logo is the recognisable geometric shapes of a Triangle inside of a Circle. In our 4-dimensional world of space and time, we only see one face of our Platonic Solid, a four-sided triangle, or a Tetrahedron that is inside of a Sphere. To understand the universe of beer, we embrace the study of fine malt beverages:
The four points of the Tetrahedron represent the four basic ingredients of beer: Malt, Hops, Water, and Yeast. Especially yeast since this is the primary driver of our flavours and aromas.
The four faces of the Tetrahedron represent our Four Core Pillars of Artisan Brewing: Art, Science, Passion, and Community. To further explain:
1. Art: This is our "raison d'être": our reason for existence. We artistically work with brewing ingredients, ideas, and methods to create unique and flavourful beverages. We are always curious, experimenting, pushing the envelope, and inspired to create new and exciting flavours. We want every drop of our wonderful elixir to transcend your soul.
2. Science: This is our foundation. We brew with an outcome in mind, a purposeful approach, research the ingredients, history, and culture to formulate beautiful beers
3. Passion: Without Passion, there would be no purpose. This is our natural state. We love what we do, every week, month, and year, without fail. We want to do more every day.
4. Community: Most importantly, we love to share what we do. We like events, collaborations, invoking discussions, and the appreciation of the wonders of cellared ales. You are the most important part of our equation
