Book NowAbout Cascade Brewery Bar
Tasmanian brewing history poured against the backdrop of Mount Wellington. Set within a two-century-old sandstone compound framed by heritage gardens, this South Hobart fixture trades ordinary pub tropes for working industrial character. Word travels among craft drinkers: secure a bench on the lawn with a four-pour paddle—catching the alpine breeze over a dark coffee stout or house ginger beer. The kitchen pulls its weight with slow-braised beef brisket over mash and crisp pork belly bites. Indoors, guides lead you down through stone tunnels and humming keg lines before you settle back outside with a shared grazing board.
- Alpine Beer Garden: Sip fresh pours on the manicured lawn directly framed by the slopes of Mount Wellington.
- Operational Brewery Tours: Guided walks trace two centuries of brewing past through historic sandstone tunnels and active packaging floors.
- Fresh Tap Paddles: Sample rotating draughts, ginger beer, and dark coffee stout brewed with mountain water runoff.
- Substantial Bistro Fare: Hearty plates anchored by slow-braised beef brisket, pork belly bites, and generous rustic share boards.
