We kicked off Sydney Craft Beer Week 2015 on Thursday 15th October launching Schwartzenlager, our collaboration brew with the Keg & Brew andDove & Olive. Thursdee arvo beers never felt so good.. with complimentary tastings served by our Head Brewer, Michael Capaldo.

Schwartzenlager is a 6.4% Californian IPL

The nature of this brew stays loyal to the lager tradition of crispness and the need for hops. Being a 6.4% 52 IBU lager, we have used only the finest hops from the West Coast of the USA. Tropical fruits of guava and pawpaw greet at the nose, before the balance of bitterness and malt combine to create a lager that you want to jump out of the chopper for more!

Hasta la vista,

Sydney Brewery exhibited this year as the sole beer and sole cider supplier at the Surry Hills Festival 2015, on Saturday 26th September.

The bar was run by our mates at WatsOnTap, serving up our Surry Hills Pils, Glamarama Summer Ale and Sydney Cider from bottle into our beautiful, new plastic branded glassware (yes.. very exciting for us!).

The festival was created around celebrating the suburbs unique urban culture, heritage, creativity and innovation – and what better way to do so than with a brew designed for the suburb itself?

Sydney Brewery had a very successful day at Taste of Coogee 2015!

The cloudy weathered completely cleared, with sunshine proving to the perfect drinking weather. We were pretty chuffed to be serving our trophy winning Lovedale Lager and Sydney Cider, having won the day before ‘Champion Beer’ and ‘Champion Cider’ at the Sydney Royal Craft Beer & Cider Show 2015.

Agave Ginger Cider was the beverage of the festival, loved by all the girls and guys!

A big thank you to Richard, Raz and Rikki – the R team who represented Sydney Brewery, and did a wonderful job at that. Cheers guys!
