FAQs
The South Coast Ale Trail is a collective of Craft Breweries along the South Coast of New South Wales, Australia.
The trail stretches for more than 370kms along the South Coast of NSW so you can take your time to discover over a few days and soak it all in. The South Coast is not a destination, it is a journey !
Currently there are 27 breweries included on the South Coast Ale Trail with 10 featured breweries. As new breweries open we will add them to our map.
The South Coast Ale Trail is a combined marketing effort from the breweries involved. Featured breweries contribute to the cost of the marketing so we only feature breweries on our website and marketing that contribute. We do list all breweries on our digital map though with a free listing. If you know a brewery that you think should be involved, let them know and ask them to contact us if they want to get involved.
How long your journey takes is up to you. Whilst you could drive the entire distance in a day, you wouldn't get to enjoy all the breweries along the way, so we suggest you take 3 or more days to visit them all and enjoy yourself.
If you are visiting the South Coast there are plenty of places to stay. Camelrock Brewery is actually located in Wallaga Lake Holiday Park, just North of Bermagui so it has it's own accommodation on site. We have also hand selected other accommodation which is nearby other South Coast Breweries. Visit our Journey page for more information.
