A CRAFTY BUNCH<br />

MOVERS AND SHAKERS<br />

CHEERS TO WOMEN, INCLUSION AND FORGING A BETTER WORLD – ONE REFRESHING SIP AT A TIME.<br />

<strong>QHA</strong> REVIEW | 52<br />

Renowned for its innovative craft beers, Felons<br />

Brewing Co. has unveiled Sirens’ Haze 2.0 – a limited<br />

release Hazy IPA brewed exclusively by a talented<br />

team of female brewers in celebration of International<br />

Women’s Day.<br />

Crafted by women, for women, this creation promises<br />

an explosion of mandarin and pineapple aromas with<br />

a full tropical fruit flavour and the inclusion of the 6th<br />

annual hop blend by Pink Boots Society – a company<br />

aiming to assist, inspire and encourage women and<br />

non-binary people in the alcoholic beverage industry to<br />

advance their careers.<br />

Sirens’ Haze 2.0 is an evolution of Felons’ 2023<br />

Belgian Amber Ale, blending the unique characteristics<br />

of Belgian yeast flavours with bubble gum, banana<br />

and pear. Balanced against a solid malt backbone and<br />

European hops, this easy-drinking beer is a delightful<br />

treat for all craft beer enthusiasts.<br />

To mark the special occasion, Felons was also<br />

proud to announce that 100% of the proceeds from<br />

Sirens’ Haze 2.0 will be donated to Women’s Legal<br />

Service Queensland (WLSQ) in order to continue<br />

their commitment to supporting women affected by<br />

domestic violence and ensuring that crucial services<br />

continue to reach those who need them most.<br />

Celebrating its 40th year of operation in 2024,<br />

WLSQ offers life-changing support through social<br />

support work, domestic violence units, health justice<br />

partnerships and financial abuse prevention.<br />

It is a for-purpose organisation dedicated to providing<br />

free, accessible legal assistance and vital services<br />

to women and their children impacted by domestic<br />

violence, family violence and sexual assault.<br />

In 2023, 91% of clients assisted by WLSQ experienced<br />

some form of domestic or family violence, with more<br />

than 14,000 women, 75% of whom have children in<br />

their care, receiving support.<br />

As Queensland’s primary specialised community legal<br />

centre, WLSQ aids clients across the state, with 67%<br />

residing outside the Brisbane metro area.<br />

To go alongside its launch of its new brew and further<br />

inspire inclusion, Felons also hosted a free, all-female<br />

music line up on International Women’s Day at Barrel<br />

Hall, staring HANNI, Gregory and Squidgenini.
