It’s a Family Passion

Founded on Sydney’s Northern Beaches in 2011, Dad & Dave's Brewing is an independently owned and operated family business. Yes - the whole family - Dad, Dave, Mum, Jess, Scott and James!

Dad (John) and Dave are qualified brewers who are passionate in making approachable & sessionable craft beer, and have decades of experience in the hospitality industry between them.

We focus on using the traditional ingredients of malt, hops, water and yeast, and then combine these with some innovative ingredients and brewing techniques to live up to our motto – “We make beer, delicious beer!”
