What is a Wisdom of Wombats?
Glad you asked.
A wisdom is a creative collective noun used to describe a group of wombats.
Wombats are native to Australia and are usually pretty happy wandering around on their own. But when they do gather together, their group can be called a wisdom.
With our Australian roots, a love for these stubborn little marsupials and a brewery named Wisdom, we couldn’t exactly stop at just one.
So, one by one, our Wisdom started to grow.
Keep scrolling. It’s time to meet them.
Meet Our Beer Wisdom
Steve the Wombat
Aussie Pale Ale • 5.2% ABV
Easygoing, approachable and always up for a beer with a few mates. Steve is where our Wisdom begins.
Mary Ann Wombat
Wheat Ale • 4.8% ABV
Bright, approachable and always ready for whatever the day brings. Mary Ann keeps the rest of the Wisdom on their toes.
Paul the Wombat
Oatmeal Stout • 6.4% ABV
A little darker, a little richer and probably convinced he knows the best way to do just about everything..
Combat Wombat
American IPA • 6.8% ABV
Some wombats choose peace. This isn’t one of them. Combat Wombat brings a little more attitude to the Wisdom.
Albert the Wombat
Kölsch• 5.1% ABV
Clean, crisp and perhaps a little more refined than his fellow wombats. Albert likes things done properly.
False Start
Pale Ale • 4.7% ABV
Not every great idea gets off to a perfect start. Fortunately, it’s where you finish that matters.
Aussie Haze IPA
Hazy India Pale Ale • 6.5% ABV
Southern Hemisphere soul meets Pacific Northwest punch with Galaxy, Simcoe and Krush hops bursting with tropical and citrus flavor.
Smash the Wombat
SMaSH IPA • 5.6% ABV
One malt. One hop. One determined wombat. Pilsner malt and Simcoe hops come together for a lighter, easy-drinking IPA with crisp malt character and a classic hop-forward finish.

Something New is Brewing
Stay tuned. Good things are brewing.
Aussie Roots. North Carolina Home.
Wisdom Brewing’s Australian connection isn’t something dreamed up in a marketing meeting.
Co-owner Mick grew up in Queensland, Australia, before eventually making his way to the United States. His wife and co-owner, Aynsley, is a North Carolina native, App State graduate and longtime lover of the mountains and the communities that call them home.
In 2020, they made Wilkes County home.
Wisdom Brewing brings a little of those two worlds together — Australian roots, North Carolina community and beer brewed right here in downtown North Wilkesboro.
The wombats just seemed like a natural fit.
Come for the Beer. Stay a While.
