About Jeannette McGill:
Bright local and dual citizen Jeannette McGill is a seasoned mountaineer and executive leader. In May 2025, at age 52, she became the oldest South African woman to summit Everest. With over 30 years of global climbing experience, Jeannette brings a grounded, honest perspective on the realities of high-altitude adventure and the urgent climate challenges facing mountain regions. She’s passionate about mentoring future explorers through snow camps and scholarships in the Victorian Alps, and believes mountains teach courage, humility, and resilience — far beyond the summit.
This is a free event, RSVP required via the link above. Space is limited, so book early to avoid disappointment.
Our collaboration with POW Australia
POW Hazy Pale Ale is a collaboration between Bright Brewery and Protect Our Winters (POW) Australia.
Born in the Victorian mountains in 2021, the partnership between Bright Brewery and POW Australia goes to the heart of each organisation’s mission to help protect Australia’s unique Alpine environment.
Part-proceeds from every POW Pale Ale sold go directly to POW Australia to help their mission, and to encourage positive action against climate change.
