10 Best Breweries in Portarlington

"The Colonial Brewing Co in Port Melbourne is a favourite spot for many a Melburnian beer fan. With a robust selection of regular beers on tap, the coming and going of each season brings new project brews to add to their offerings. Coupled with a tasty bar food menu that features wing and burgers, this is a beer mecca worth visiting."

"From humble beginnings in a backyard on Henry Street, this tiny artisan microbrewery in Kensington hand crafts a tasty range of beers and ales. With five core beers always available, the guys at Henry Street add to their line up throughout the year with seasonal and one-off brews that come from the beer epiphanies that strike the brewers in the house. The Brewery Bar at 5/38 Barrett Street, Kensington is open regularly."

"Notable for being Australia’s first female owned and operated brewery, the Two Birds Nest in Spotswood is home to their brewery and tasting room. Staple brews include their first and most popular beer, ‘Golden’ and the seasonal pour, ‘Stout’. Stop by for one, or make it a session and order something from the food menu that’s designed to complement the brews."

"Sam and Duncan first met while working at wineries in New Zealand and it’s there they hatched their idea for Hop Nation Brewing Co. Housed in a huge 130-year-old warehouse in Footscray, the red brick and wall murals create a relaxed vibe to sip the day away on one of their four core beers, like ‘The Fiend’, an Australian IPA that’s Aussie to the core. Keep an eye on their limited release beers too."

"The Moon Dog Brewery comes with a rags-to-riches story about how owners Jake, Josh and Karl opened their Abbotsford micro-brewery with a fistful of coins and a bucketful of determination. Now a household name in the craft beer scene and with changed fortunes under their belt, they haven’t forgotten their roots. Comfy couches and ramshackle style seating provide a chilled vibe in their warehouse pub to harbor a bottle of their Love Tap lager, Old Mate pale ale and Mack Daddy dark ale."

"If you’re not into museums, embark on a beer tour at Little Creatures Brewery, where you’ll be treated to an informative session about the whole process of beer-making. Don’t forget about the brewery’s smashing menu, too!"

"If you are looking for some really yummy food, don’t miss the Cuff Food + Wine. While this place is open for lunch and dinner too (so if you miss breakky never fear) they have some really awesome breakfast options including totally amazing Acai Bowls. Their muffins are a bit of a vibe too."

All the classic arcade games are here, so parents are also entertained, but of course all the latest games are here too."

Many of the pieces in the permanent exhibition are from ancient times – marble statues and byzantine paintings, for examples. A partnership with Greece’s Benaki Museum means there are a number of impressive antiquities here."
