Why it's worth checking out
Penguin Beer Co sits on Main Road in Penguin, a charming seaside town on Tasmania's north-west coast (famous for its penguin theme). A craft brewery, it brings together house-brewed beer with a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere — the kind of characterful spot that's become a genuine favourite for a freshly poured local brew in a lovely coastal-town setting.
The appeal is that combination of quality, creative craft beer brewed locally, a relaxed and welcoming vibe and a charming Penguin location, ideal for a tasting, drinks with friends or a casual afternoon while exploring the north-west coast. There's something special about a good local brewery in a characterful coastal town, and Penguin Beer Co has clearly won over both locals and visitors.
With a 4.7 rating from nearly 400 reviews, it's clearly delighting its visitors. The beer range, any food, opening hours and any events vary, and a popular brewery fills up on weekends, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a freshly poured local brew in a relaxed coastal setting, it's often just a matter of dropping in and seeing what's on tap at Penguin.
