We’ve got some exciting news to share from the northern beaches of Sydney! We’re thrilled to announce that Lume Gin is now proudly available at Quakers Hat Brewing, the awesome brewery nestled in Manly Vale.
Our connection with Quakers Hat began at the recent Cork & Fork festival, where we had the pleasure of meeting Cam Robinson, the passionate mind behind Quakers Hat Brewing. Cam, a true connoisseur, really connected with our gins, and we knew right away this was a partnership we wanted to explore.
Since then, we’ve visited their incredible brewery, soaking in the unique atmosphere and even snapping some fantastic photos of Lume Gin alongside Cam and our own Lume Gin co-founders. It’s always special when you find kindred spirits who appreciate quality and craftsmanship as much as you do.
A Little Bit About Quakers Hat Brewing
For those unfamiliar with the story, Quakers Hat Brewing is a true local gem with a fascinating origin. While their name comes from the calm and tranquil Quakers Hat Bay in Mosman, a hidden gem of Sydney’s North Shore, the brewing magic actually happens in Manly Vale.
Founded by Cam Robinson, along with his parents Dave and Sue, Quakers Hat Brewing moved into their creekside venue in September 2019. They were incredibly fortunate to set up shop just before COVID-19 hit, allowing them to focus on wholesale production during the lockdown period when packaged alcohol sales soared.
When they finally opened their taphouse in February 2022, they transformed the industrial space into something truly unique. Thanks to Dave and Sue’s antique business, the brewery boasts 18th and 19th-century chairs and tables, alongside extravagant chandeliers, giving it a rustic, almost medieval charm. It’s a place where you can truly feel the history and dedication that has gone into creating this space.
From Kolsch to Gin: A Love for Quality
Cam’s brewing journey began with a love for Kolsch, a beer style he describes as a perfect transition for mainstream beer drinkers looking for something a little more. Their Kolsch remains a core range staple, alongside their Pale Ale, Lager, Red Rye IPA, and Hazy IPA. With eight taps, there’s always something new to discover, including seasonal limited releases and local ciders.
The local community has been incredibly supportive of Quakers Hat Brewing, with many regulars making it a weekend tradition. It’s this dedication to quality, community, and creating an inviting atmosphere that makes Quakers Hat Brewing such a perfect fit for Lume Gin.
