Why it's worth checking out
The Cascade Brewery Bar sits on Cascade Road in South Hobart, at the foot of the magnificent, historic Cascade Brewery — the oldest continuously operating brewery in the country, founded in 1832. Set against the backdrop of kunanyi / Mount Wellington, the grand sandstone brewery is one of Hobart's most iconic landmarks.
The appeal is that rare combination of history, setting and beer: enjoying a drink at the source, in the grounds of a genuine piece of Australian brewing heritage, with the option to learn about its remarkable story. It's a destination experience, pairing the beautiful historic surrounds with a relaxed spot to sample what's brewed there.
With a 4.6 rating from more than 3,100 reviews, it's a much-loved Hobart attraction. Opening hours, the bar, brewery tours and any events vary, so it's worth checking current details before you go — particularly if you'd like to do a tour as well as visit the bar — and allowing time to take in the spectacular historic setting, which is a highlight of a visit in its own right.
