William Beauchamp built a brewery in the new township of Pichi Richi located between Port Augusta and Quorn
along the railway line. Mr Beauchamp hired Charles Henry Gray to be the brewer. Gray was already very famous
for his beers in the northern townships having already brewed in Stirling North and Beltana. The brewery was sold in
1880 to William Taylor from Port Augusta. The brewery was damaged by a fire in 1883 and the brewery didn't re-open.![]() Port Augusta Dispatch, 3rd December 1880 |
