The experience

The tour starts at Batch's Marrickville Brewery, where you'll taste their beer and learn about the ingredients that go into it. From there you walk through the golden triangle of Sydney's indie craft beer scene: the stretch of Marrickville where these three breweries sit within reach of each other. At each stop, your guide takes you behind the scenes to see how the brewery started, what drives their brewing ethos, and how they actually make the beer you're tasting.

At Sauce, the group tours the brewery floor itself and your guide walks through the technical side of brewing while you taste what they've made. The whole experience runs 2.5 hours and stays on foot. Public transportation options are nearby if you need them. You'll leave with a branded hat and a bottle opener keyring, plus the knowledge of how three different breweries approach the same craft.

What’s included

• Tasters at 3 local breweries.
• a Dave's Pub & Brewery Tours hat and bottle opener keyring.
• a local beer guide leading the full 2.5-hour walk through Marrickville's brewing district.

Is this one for you?You're on a walking tour with a guide who stops at each brewery to explain the technical side and the story behind it, so this suits someone who wants to understand how beer is made, not just taste it. If you prefer to move at your own pace or skip the group format, a self-guided brewery crawl would work better.
