The Coastal Brewing Company

Overview

In Forster, on New South Wales' Barrington Coast, sits a regional craft microbrewery and brewhouse. The 1200-litre facility and attached tasting room is home to an aptly named outfit, too — because clearly The Coastal Brewing Company doesn't want anyone to forget exactly where it is located.

You don't need to drink these beers by the shore, of course. But, if you're instantly feeling relaxed due to the brand's beachy moniker, you have a few brews to choose from. Sours, stouts, IPAs, lagers and wheat beers are all on Coastal's lineup, as made locally with all-natural ingredients.

Head by the brewhouse and tasting room, and you can take a tour, sip your way through a selection of brews, and take growlers, squealers, six-packs and 24-can cases home with you.
