Born in Curly, Raised in Brookie
7th Day Brewery is a vibrant little community watering hole in Brookvale on Sydney’s Northern Beaches.
The name, before you ask, is an ode to what we love to do on our day of rest, whether it be going for a surf or a skate, shooting the breeze & of course, enjoying a great beer & a tasty slice of authentic Italian pizza!
We’re a small Independent brewery providing award winning beer in both our taproom & to a bunch of bars & bottleshops in the neighbourhood & beyond!
Make yourself at home inside our converted warehouse, housing our bar and brewery, or relax in the sunshine in our huge beer garden (dogs and skateboards welcome). Our taproom has more to offer than just succulent drops. Whether you want to play a game of pool, or watch the game on our jumbo screen, let your kids run around our backyard, or eat under the stars, made by our talented neighbour Sale Pepe.
You’re also more than welcome to take a few beers home, because that’s what neighbours are for.
We can’t wait to have you over.
Sustainability
Here at 7th day brewery we try our best to make sustainable choices wherever possible. We are conscious of the environment and want the best for our future generations. This is what we do to help.
Recycled Fitout
When building the Brewery tap-house back in 2018, the team was resourceful with the internal fit out, using the material that was used to make structures from the people that inhabited the venue before, to build new structures. Soon a lot of our furniture and structures were made from other recycled and up-cycled material.
Timber mezzanine stairs that was once built towards the front of our brewery taproom, was recycled to make our beautiful timber bar. All of our tables are up-cycled timber cable spool and wine barrels. All of our timber wall cladding is recycled timber from Northshore Timber. Our beer garden fence is made from up-cycled timber palettes
Our men’s urinals are old recycled (tooheys ;) kegs. We have used retired surfboards for internal and external signage and for our pool table down lights!
In 2020 we built a self-watering hydroponic plant wall to contribute to offsetting our C02 footprint used in the brew process. Our hydroponic plant wall is a self-maintaining culture of various plants with special grow lights attached to the underside of the timber slats to help them thrive like they have (pictured left).
Carbon Neutral Power
When we first opened up 7th Day Brewery, we shopped around to find the right energy company that would align with our values and sustainable choices. Powershop has been accredited under the government’s Climate Active Carbon Neutral Standard as a carbon neutral business since 2014 meaning that our energy usage throughout the Brewery is 100% carbon neutral. We’re proud to do our part for the environment by using more environmentally friendly energy and offset 100% of our carbon emissions.
Local Suppliers
Staying true to our local community and wanting to collaborate with independent companies we aim to support local where we can and make sure our waste goes full circle.
We purchase our grain that we use in the beer making process from a family run business in New Zealand, Gladfield , supporting an independent, small run business.
Once we have made the beer, our spent grain (grain residue and waste) is picked up by a local farmer and is used to feed is 150 head of cattle up in Ingleside, Sydney. We like to know that our waste can be used to fuel other walks of life!
Drink Good, Do Good.
7th Day Brewery operates with a combined importance of creating excellent beer and a whole hearted involvement within our local community. We rose from the dust by the help of the community through crowd funding, so we promote this idea of giving back and doing good.
This idea of local support has shaped the brand, and knowing this makes us who we are.
