🍺 FIVE INGREDIENTS. FIVE COURSES. 40 YEARS OF BREWING.

One of Sydney B**r Week’s most special dining experiences is back.

The Lord Nelson Brewery Hotel celebrates 40 years of brewing on site with the anniversary edition of its iconic 5 Ingredients of Ale Dinner.

Five courses. Five perfectly paired ales. Each inspired by one of b**r’s essential ingredients — malted barley, rye, hops, yeast & water.

Hosted by The Lord’s Head Brewer and ambassadors, this intimate dinner brings together exceptional b**r, food and four decades of brewing history.

🍽️ Five-course dinner
🍺 Five matched ales
🪙 Entry into the 40th Anniversary Coin Bearers Club
🎟️ Very limited seats

🚲 TOUR DE FROTH IS BACK FOR 2026! 🍻

One of Sydney B**r Week's most sought-after events returns!

Join Bridge Road Brewers for Tour de Froth on Saturday 24 October, taking you on a journey around some of Sydney’s best craft b**r bars — with Bridge Road b**rs and plenty of fellow Hopheads and Gearheads along the way.

🚲 Ride the route on your favourite two-wheeler, or
🚊 Join the adventure by light rail and train.

Starting at York Lane, the tour rolls through Dove & Olive and Iron Duke Hotel, before finishing at The Noble Hops for a Bridge Road Brewers tap takeover and a chance to meet the brewers.

This one sells out every year, so you’ll want to be quick.

🎟️ Tickets released soon.

Make sure you’re following Sydney B**r Week on Instagram and Facebook so you’re the first to know when tickets go live.

Sydney B**r Week 2026 is coming

And we’re calling on venues, breweries, pubs, bars, bottle shops and b**r legends across Sydney to get involved.

Firstly — a huge thank you to everyone who has already submitted events. The response so far has been incredible.

We know everyone’s been absolutely flat out, so we’re extending Expressions of Interest until the end of the month.

If you’ve been thinking about running an event but haven’t had time to lock it in yet — jump online and tell us what you’re thinking.

At this stage, we just need the basics so we can help lock in dates, avoid clashes, and make sure your event gets the spotlight it deserves in this year’s calendar. The finer details can come later.

And for everyone who comes along to Sydney B**r Week events each year — this is where the magic starts.

Sydney B**r Week is about discovering new venues, trying incredible b**r, meeting great people, supporting local breweries, and creating experiences you simply don’t get every other week of the year.

Without the venues, breweries, staff, reps, brewers and passionate b**r community behind it all — there is no Sydney B**r Week. We appreciate every single one of you.

After all the hype around Pint of Origin in Melbourne, let’s show everyone what Sydney has to offer too.

Let’s make 2026 massive 🍺

Something big is building for Sydney B**r Week 2026 🍻

Every year, venues and breweries across Sydney create one-off events you won’t see any other time — from collabs and tap takeovers to experiences you just can’t get on a normal weekend.

That means:
• New venues to discover
• Limited releases you won’t find again
• Unique events across 10 days

If you’re into good b**r, good venues, and trying something different — this is your week. More to come 👀
