WILLIE THE BOATMAN Started in 2012, Willie the Boatman beers are brewed on ex-dairy equiptment, repurposed for brewing the delicious amber liquid known as beer! Pat, Nick, Joel and the gang at Willie’s do a fantastic job of creating beers with plenty of character (read; flavour)!
BATCH BREWING CO Started by two Americans who met in Oz, Batch is the brewery you want to visit if you like something thats always new! A core range of four beers, and a further rotating six taps in the brewery, Batch likes to put out a new beer every 10 days. So if you’ve been here before, then there’ll almost definitely be something new for you to try.
WAYWARD BREWING COMPANY Hidden down a Camperdown laneway, Wayward Brewing Company is housed deep inside the roots of the former winery that occupied the site nearly a century ago. Originally a gypsy brewing they now have there own brewing and state of the art bottling line. The 12-tap bar features a constantly changing tap list of craft-beer goodness, pouring Wayward beers that are only available at the brewery.
STAVES BREWERY Staves Brewery is situated right behind Broadway shopping centre, and operates as Sydney’s smallest brewery. A beautiful outdoor terrace, and rustic interior, Staves is all about just making great beer, and giving a great experience.
ROCKS BREWING COMPANY Led by fifth and sixth generation convict descendants, the guys behind The Rocks Brewing Company have thrown their all into setting up one of the most advanced breweries in town. Explore the brewhouse and get up close to their brewing equipment as you sample beers straight from the tank.
GRIFTER BREWING COMPANY 3 guys started brewing out of Young Henrys as gypsy brewers. Since then the boys have taken Young Henry’s first brewhouse and opened up their own brewery in Marrickville. Based in an old commercial laundry, with 12 taps and even a pool table a lot has changed in 3 years for The Grifter Brewing Company. Try the Fresh and Clean IPL named after the previous tenants.
YOUNG HENRY’S Young Henry’s is perhaps Sydney’s most recognised large craft brewery. Just behind Newtown, Young Henry’s provides a fantastic example of what makes craft beer great! Good beers, a sense of community and good vibes all round.
