Balmain Brewing Company is a brewer of fine craft beer based in Balmain, Sydney. Balmain is the cultural centre for beer in Australia, a title held since the early to mid 1800's when the peninsula was home to 55 pubs. The company was foundered in 2010 by a group of Balmain mates, with a vision of reopening the Balmain Brewery of last century, and of becoming an Australian iconic craft beer company.
