CRAFT BEER BREWED IN THE BLUE MOUNTAINS.

NOW POURING AT THE OLD CITY BANK & CHAMPAGNE CHARLIE’S COCKTAIL BAR, OR GRAB A 4-PACK AT THE CARRINGTON CELLARS.

Way back when...

The heritage-listed building housing our brewery was purpose built in 1913 as a coal power station. Sir James Joynton, then owner of The Carrington, was far from impressed that hotel guests had no electricity supply, so he simply got on and built his own power station within the grounds.

After decades generating electricity for Blue Mountains’ villages from Mount Victoria to Wentworth Falls, the building and landmark chimney sat idle for many years, remaining relatively unaltered with many original fixtures intact. 

Fast forward 100 years or so, and with some hard graft and creative repurposing, the vision of a Katoomba Brewing Co. was realised.

... And today

The Katoomba Brewing Co. was established in 2015 just as interest in microbreweries and craft beers started to snowball. Our niche following quickly gained momentum with beer enthusiasts seeking the perfect local brew. Then, COVID.

Our doors reopened in 2022 under the direction of head brewer Kieran Allen. Plans for the not-to-distant future include welcoming visitors to enjoy a unique brewery experience.

For now, our beers are available across The Carrington precinct including The Old City BankChampagne Charlie’s Cocktail Bar, and canned 4-packs at Carrington Cellars. So if you are Mountains, follow the chimney and enjoy a beer.

Our Brews

Pale Ale

A smooth, easy-drinking pale ale brewed from Amarillo hops. Sits at 4.4% alcohol making it one of our most sessionable ales.

India Pale Ale

Beautifully aromatic beer brewed from Citra and Vic Secret hops. Distinguished by its full flavour and intense hop bitterness. Expect citrus, pine, and notes of stone fruit.

Draught

Born out of the desire for an easy-drinking, no nonsense thirst-quenching lager. Made from all Australian malted barley and wheat; hopped using Pride of Ringwood & Vic Secret – the perfect anytime beer.

Porter

Made from Pale, Munich, Crystal & Pale Chocolate malts, with rolled oats to give colour and rich notes of chocolate & coffee. East Kent Goldings and Fuggles hops balance out the bitterness, so you’re left with a full-flavored dark beer, just right for cool Mountains weather.

Olde English Ale

Brewed in December 2019 and cold stored in the cask for 2 ½ years. Only nine kegs left of this one-off, limited-edition brew. Citra and Amarillo hoppiness has dissipated, leaving toffee and caramel notes from the original malts.

Hazy Pale Ale

A perfect summer drinking ale, characterised by its cloudy appearance. Made using Citra, Vic Secret and Nectaron hops, you can expect tropical and citrus favours.

Bohemian Pils
