We love the story behind businesses at Choosy, and the founder of O’Brien beer was John O’Brien who had been diagnosed with Coeliac Disease in 1998 and quickly found that there were not any Australian made gluten free beers on the market and no international beers that matched up to the taste of a good craft beer – so John decided to develop his own range. John explains,

“I was looking to make an all-natural gluten free beer, with no colourings or preservatives, that still tasted just as good as barley based beers, if not even better. Following some terrible initial attempts (and a fire in the back shed whilst trying to roast some grain), batch by batch these trial beers became better and better, to the point where I thought there could be a commercial opportunity.”

Founded in 2002, O’Brien Beer was the first commercially prouduced gluten free beer and has since won numerous awards across three countries including the inaugural gluten free beer awards in the UK, Australian International Beer Awards and a silver medal at the World Beer Cup in the US in 2010. On the back of many years of hard-working beer research and brewing, O’Brien Beer has become a true Australian business success story - Australian beer, gluten free and made in Australia.

You will love the taste of O’Brien Beer available in a full-bodied Premium Lager, light Pale Ale, Light Lager or European Brown Ale.

Australian Made Gluten Free Beer

Kids love listening to these fantastic bed time stories, and parents love them even more because they are so effective in making children relax and fall asleep in no time. The stories engage children’s imagination with calming voices with each story running for around 30 minutes, with a soundscape that lasts for a full hour to make sure that children stay asleep after settling.

These popular short stories for kids CDs, are 100% Australian made by Sherene, a paediatric speech pathologist and mother of two, who often found it difficult to settle her busy kids at bedtime, so she developed bedtime stories that use simple relaxation and visualisation techniques to help children relax and get ready for sleep.  They worked so well with her own family, that Sherene looked to record them professionally and Dinosnores sleepy stories were born!

Dinosnores are a must have for anyone with children, they just make bedtime so much easier for you and your kids – see kids stories here.

But the good news is that there is a whole lot of volunteers in Australia helping to save the wombat and if you would like to help too, then visit the Wombat Protection Society of Australia to find out what you can do.

And remember, to reduce your chance of hitting an animal on the roads, watch out for wildlife and slow down, especially between dusk and dawn when nocturnal animals are on the move. If you do hit an animal and it is still alive contact your local wildlife group as animals can be dangerous if they feel threatened - and if the animal is dead, then check the pouch of the animal to see if there is a joey inside the pouch.

We can all help to save our wombats.

Australian Made Wooden Homewares

1. Stay away from the homewares section.

2.  Men are great at buying cheap alcohol, so spoil them with premium Australian brews from Australia beers, organic wines and spirits.

3. Men are not natural groomers and most rarely look in the mirror, so natural Australian skin care and shaving gifts are welcomed.

4. Men love technology and gadgets but just make sure that they relate to his interests… iphone and ipad covers are great, and they will adore the waterproof, collapsable iphone speakers by Tembo Trunks.

5.  If electrical tape is holding his wallet together, then time for a new one. But make it special, buy Australia wallets that are handcrafted, and built to last a very long time.

6. If they have a dog, then a paw bag annual subscription would be ideal – every time great dog toys are delivered they will remember you.

7. We know men love their beer, but if they love their beer and their food then the most perfect gift is the Australia beer - Fusion Brewing, three different beers specifically brewed to match seafood, spicy food or flamed grilled meat.

8. Personalised gifts are great but just be sure you know his taste. Check out some great personalised gifts on Choosy.

9. With the exception to Tip No.1, every guy will love these wooden milk crates and ply wood milk crates for cool casual seating or storage.

10. Men seem to buy cars more often than they do underwear, so while it is not original, it is absolutely necessary that women keep buying socks and jocks for their guys.
