About 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.

  • Operational Sandstone Brewery Tours

    Step inside a 200-year-old operational sandstone Gothic brewery to explore historic stone tunnels and live production lines.

    Walking through the old stone tunnels and hearing the roar of the modern keg lines inside this 200-year-old shell was fascinating.

  • Alpine Mountain Garden Setting

    Unwind in manicured heritage gardens nestled directly below the dramatic peaks and crisp alpine air of Mount Wellington.

    The setting is absolutely beautiful, with lovely heritage buildings and a relaxing garden atmosphere.

  • Picturesque Heritage Grounds Dining

    Dine outdoors amidst lush grounds framed by views of the iconic historic facade across the valley.

    The historic building across the road was breathtaking, as was the stunning interior and the fabulous gardens that provided a lovely view as we enjoyed our meals.

  • Fresh Tap Tasting Paddles

    Sample curated flights of traditional stouts, seasonal ales, and craft ciders brewed right at the mountain water source.

    A great selection of beers, beautifully served, and a fun way to experience the range Cascade has to offer.

  • Elevated Bistro Fare & Specialty Pours

    Enjoy hearty kitchen fare like tender export-braised beef brisket and elevated pub classics paired with fresh pours.

    Got the beef brisket and was the best feed I had in Tasmania in 2 weeks. The coffee stout was spectacular on tap.

    the stout chocolate cake was the absolute stunner! Rich, moist, and devoid of the baking soda taste that ruins so many other chocolate cakes.

Before you head over

Plan around active industrial safety rules, valley weather, and high demand—book your tour and table early to ensure your spot.

  • Book Brewery Tours Early

    Brewery tours regularly sell out in advance to tour buses and travelers. Reserve online several days ahead to guarantee access to the tour and tasting paddle.

  • Wear Closed-Toe Shoes and Long Pants

    Because this is an active, heavy-duty industrial facility, safety requirements are non-negotiable: guests must wear closed-toe shoes and long pants or ankle-covering clothing to enter indoor tour areas.

  • Assess Stairs and Pack Mountain Layers

    The full tour involves multiple flights of industrial steel mesh stairs; visitors with mobility or knee concerns should select the outdoor historic grounds tour instead. Bring a warm jacket for the crisp mountain breezes, and book your visit in advance to secure your spot.
