Hubby and I were waiting on the ferry when we spotted 4 Pines Brewing Company. We naturally headed…read moreover for a pint. We found an open table on the upstairs outdoor patio with a gorgeous view of Manly Wharf. The bar staff took our order and poured our beers quickly. This location was perfect for an afternoon beer!

It's #thurstythursday and #throwbackthursday and I'm reminiscing about visiting my first brewery in…read moreAustralia. I was on an 8hr layover in Sydney on my way to Perth and decided to venture out to Manly via the harbor water taxi. It was in the middle of a hellacious rainstorm, so the ferry ride was definitely "lively". 4Pines Brewpub was the closest brewery to the quay, so I made a run for it and was greeted with a nice beer selection (did a flight #natch ), friendly staff, ample seating (w/a view), and respite from the storm. It was a great way to say g'day to beer in Oz! Definitely recommend stopping by if you're ever in that neck of the woods DownUnder as it is super convenient to the Corso which takes you to Manly Beach.

Look, like a lot of the other breweries about the place, this one was rather nice, it was just a shame that when I went to buy some takeaway, they didn't happen to offer the option of mixing and matching. Still, as a brewery, it wasn't bad, and it is signed pretty well, so it can be easily spotted as well (namely because it happens to be next to a pub). Yeah, the beers were cool, and the service was fine, it just didn't stand out in the way that the other ones had.

I sort of stumbled upon this place as I was making my way back into Sydney from a rather long hike…read more I had decided to jump off the bus for a beer, and then found this rather nice place tucked away behind the pub. It turns out, as tends to be the case with most of these small breweries, that the beer, well, was pretty awesome. In fact, they have a number of different ones on offer as well. Even though it seems that most of the seating is outside, they also have a pretty nice upstairs area as well, and also a restaurant. This is certainly a place to check out.

Really cool brewery that is only a few months old and just cleaned up at the latest craft beer…read moreawards. You should 1st try the 'kite flyer' cream ale. It's their most popular and came highly recommended by the bar staff who said it 'just flies out the door'. Having said that, all of the beers are quite unique and tasty- got through 6 of the 9 beers on offer and wasn't disappointed at all. Each of their beers has a little description about its background/ where it came- some of which are quite interesting. If you get a chance, read up on the previous tenant- Really cool relaxed and easy going atmosphere, full of older people and has a welcoming feel- which is a nice change to the short skirts, meat heads and delinquents you get this time of night right next door at Mona pub. Also do take aways!! All the food looked great too. I tried the margarita pizza and the chips. Both awesome. In some magical turn of events the chips somehow tasted like those cheese and bacon balls when you eat them with the dip. Something I highly recommend.

One of our group had a gluten intolerance, and the company's website claimed to have gluten free options. It did have an option... just one... the nachos... nothing else. For the rest of us the food lacked any kind of seasoning, leaving it bland and lifeless. There is a large variety of beer on the menu but for some reason the words "sorry, we're run out of that" came up A LOT. They do provide a sampler plate of four different beers which was fun to experience. All in all though this place left a little bit to be desired.
