Overview
In 2010 Carlton United Breweries (CUB), announced the launch of a new brewery Great Northern Brewing Co.[2] Great Northern is styled on 'Cairns Draught', a product first brewed in 1924 by Auguste Joseph François de Bavay, whose studies of sewage contamination in drinking water helped end diseases such as typhoid.[3] Both brands feature a marlin character in their logo and package designs.[4]
In the bottles the full strength 'original' style beers are identifiable by the gold-coloured bottle top and a white-coloured marlin fish on its label whereas the mid strength has a silver-coloured bottle cap with a black marlin on the label.
It was recently (2022) the best selling beer in Australia.[5]
