EXPERIENCE BEACHES AND BEERS
Our Northern Exposure kicks off in the mecca of beer for the Northern Beaches, Brookvale. Also known as ‘Brewvale’ and we will explore some fantastic breweries and maybe even a distillery if we can.
The venues we visit on the day vary as we like to ‘spread the love’, not all places are open every day and it’s all about timing and providing a good mix of places, people and beers.
On tour you can expect a great amount of amazing beers, of all different styles, strengths, colours and flavours. We talk about the brewing process & the ingredients used and take you behind the scenes to give you a real feel for the breweries on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. An awesome brewery lunch is included with along with the tour tastings and the tour our wraps up with a drop off back to Brookvale– and please note we do offer a pickup and drop off in Surry Hills as well!
Number of guests per tour – This Sydney beer 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.
WHERE YOU MAY GO

Headed by an Italian Head Brewery, and the husband and wife team behind Experience IT Beverages, you can be sure to find something interesting at Nomad, no matter the weather. Their motto – ‘Never Settle’.
-
Established on the Northern Beaches in 2011, Dad and Dave’s is a truly family owned business. They focus on the four ingredients of beer, and using them through innovative techniques, to give the people what they want, it’s even embodied in their motto – ‘We make beer! Delicious beer!’
-
Modus Operandi – latin for ‘Method of Operations’ embodies what Modus’ beer is all about. Beer first, no shortcuts. And that’s reflected in the quality of beer they produce. Flying live yeast in from the US, and canning everything cold, Modus is all about the ‘fresh is best’ ideology.
-
It really is a bar in a truck. The large scale production brewery and packaging line located in Brookvale, is a regular favourite for locals. 4 Pines is on a mission to become Australia’s first carbon neutral brewery. They have a love for beer, a focus on the environment, and a passion for the community.
-
After a long journey to fulfil their dreams of owning and running an independent brewery in Bucketty, Cessnock fell between their fingers. Owners, Nick and Lexi, opened their brewery doors in Brookvale in February 2021.
Bucketty’s like to do things a little differently, using homegrown hops and wood from their land to bring the bush to Brookvale.
-
7th Day Brewery operates with the combined importance of creating excellent beer and a wholehearted involvement within the local community. They rose from the dust with the help of the community through crowdfunding, as such they promote this idea of giving back and doing good.
-
Capturing the harmony between carefree beach life and urban sophistication for which Manly is renowned, founders David, Vanessa and the Manly Spirits Co. team create Australian Gins, Botanical Vodkas and Whiskies that rival the best in the world taking much of their inspiration from the stunning surrounding marine environment of the New South Wales coastline.
SOMETIMES THINGS CHANGE – Because our Australia beer 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.
