Young Henrys – Craft Brewery and Tasting Bar

A Newtown Icon with Local Roots

Located in the heart of Newtown, Young Henrys is a Sydney institution known for its bold craft beers, welcoming vibes, and commitment to community. Founded in 2012 by Richard Adamson and Oscar McMahon, the brewery has grown from a local favourite into one of Australia’s most iconic independent brewers without losing its Inner West edge.

Beer That Speaks Sydney

Young Henrys has made its mark with approachable yet distinctive beers like the Newtowner Pale Ale, Natural Lager, and Stayer Mid. Their brews are unfiltered, often brewed using solar power, and full of flavour that locals love. The ever-evolving seasonal range includes IPAs, dark ales, and collab beers with musicians, chefs, and local legends.

Whether you’re into hop-heavy IPAs or something crisp and light, there’s a tap for you here. The brewery is also home to experimental small-batch releases you won’t find in bottleshops.

Tasting Bar with True Inner West Vibes

The tasting bar at Young Henrys is as down-to-earth as it gets. Inside the industrial-style space, you’ll find long communal tables, exposed tanks, local art, and a rotating food truck lineup outside. It’s dog-friendly, laid-back, and often buzzing with locals, music fans, and visitors looking to taste what the Inner West is all about.

Open every day, it’s a great spot to enjoy a paddle of fresh beers straight from the source, hang out with mates, and soak up the Newtown atmosphere.

A Brewery with a Cause

Young Henrys isn’t just about great beerit’s about doing things the right way. The team is known for their sustainability efforts, using algae to reduce carbon emissions in partnership with scientists, supporting local artists, and hosting fundraisers and community events.

From beer lovers and music fans to curious travellers, Young Henrys offers a uniquely Sydney craft beer experience authentic, flavourful, and full of heart. If you want to drink where the locals do, this is the place.
