Cascade Brewery

South Hobart Fodor's Choice

This is Australia's oldest and most picturesque brewery, producing fine Tasmanian beers since 1824. You can see its inner workings on the 60-minute tour, which requires lots of walking and climbing, but you're rewarded with three free drinks at The Brewery Bar at the end. Note that appropriate attire (closed-toe shoes only) is required, and reservations are essential. For those more interested in history than beer, a second tour focuses more on the building's backstory and the region's heritage. It's a 30-minute walk from the city center, or regular buses leave from Franklin Square. The hop-on, hop-off Red Decker bus also stops just outside.
