The Sydney beer scene is exploding. Sydney’s population of 4 million will soon be joined by 350,000 new residents in Sydney’s west and south-west. Sydney has the highest population density of all Australian cities, and our inner-city neighborhoods are vibrant and energetic places to live. Sydney’s suburbs that ring the city center have a similar vibrancy: Waterloo, Erskineville, Newtown, and Glebe are home to an abundance of restaurants, cafes, and pubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yet for so long Sydney was defined by its grey CBD office towers and iconic modernist Sydney Opera House: we lost our sense in looking beyond these two iconic landmarks when defining what Sydney is about. But now there is no doubt that the city has changed; Sydney’s bar and restaurant scene is a fantastic place to spend an entertaining Sydney evening. Sydney is now widely regarded as one of the world’s top food cities, with Sydney chefs regularly taking out prize after prize at prestigious culinary awards. Sydney was named the world’s best destination for 2015 by TripAdvisor travelers, largely because of our great beaches but also due to Sydney’s vibrant gastronomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another reason Sydney came out on top in that survey of travelers’ favorite destinations was that Sydney has long been home to some of the finest beer bars in the country – if not the world. This is not just true for Sydney’s local beer-drinking locals; it’s also true for international visitors who come here specifically to sample Australian craft beers brewed locally in Sydney. Sydney is home to some of the best beer bars in Australia, and the Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide awards its annual Pub Of The Year award to Sydney’s best beer bar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many Sydney pubs specialize in craft beers brewed locally by Sydney brewers; many others brew their own on-site. Sydney is home to dozens of breweries that produce world-class beers (beer with rich flavor, good aromas, and long aftertastes).
