TOUR INFORMATION

The Northern Exposure gets you up to the Northern Beaches, for a taste of the beach life, with some awesome beers in hand.

Our Northern Exposure kicks off with the mecca of beer for the Northern Beaches, Brookvale. Also known as ‘Brewvale’ we will explore some fantastic breweries and maybe a distillery here before heading up to Mona Vale to visit one of Sydney’s furthest flung breweries, where you will enjoy delicious beers & amazing food, all while surrounded by some beautiful brewing equipment. We then may head to Newport Public House to check what they're doing with their barrels before maybe a sneaky distillery or brewery visit back in Brookvale. The Tour wraps up with a drop off in the Northern Beaches back to Surry Hills.

Over the course of the day, you can expect to explore a great amount of beer, and beer styles, all talked through by our expert guide. We talk about the ingredients and the brewing process, while you get to go behind the scenes of the breweries and check all that out as well.

On this tour you will visit 4 awesome Northern Beaches breweries and have a delicious lunch at a cool venue. Which breweries we visit on the day does change – not all places are open every day and it’s all about timing and providing a good mix of places, people and beers.

Number of guests per tour – This tour accommodates a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 11 guests (get in touch for information on larger group sizes). Your order will be confirmed once we have filled 8 seats on the tour.

  • START: Surry Hills Pick up: 11.00am sharp Brookvale Pickup: 12:00pm sharp. If you are running late, give us a call but please please please be on time.

  • END: Drop off: approximately 5pm at Brookvale and 6.00pm at Keg & Brew Hotel in Surry Hills.

SOMETIMES THINGS CHANGE – Because our tours are truly behind the scenes experiences sometimes our plans need to change to accommodate brewery operations. And sometimes we just know about beer goings on around town that are worth checking out, so we may change some parts of our tours. Whilst these changes are rare, we do reserve the right to make them. If you do have a MUST SEE beer spot, please let us know when making your booking and we’ll do all we can to make it happen.
