Sydney’s 4 Pines Brewing Company will expand its Northern Beaches footprint into three new hospitality venues over the coming months.

The venues comprise a barrelhouse in Newport, a beer and bread concept in Belrose and a new eatery underneath the BrewPub in Manly.

They are in addition to the original Manly BrewPub and Brookvale Brewery Truck Bar, the latter of which was established at the company’s Brookvale production brewery last year.

“When Brookvale took off, it swallowed capital for the next few years, in a pretty major way,” 4 Pines ‘Brew Publican’ Ged Dore told Australian Brews News.

“Because the national sales grew so rapidly, they had to keep on updating the brewery.

“We were always going to get back into the hospitality space. We looked at different areas in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane and we just kept on coming back to the Northern Beaches,” he said.
