Craft beer maker Stockade Brew Co. has opened a brewery and bar in Sydney's Marrickville.

Designed by RAD Studios, the old factory space has been filled with terracotta tiles and furniture made from blackbutt wood.

The brewery also commissioned a bar front which was made using repurposed staves taken from barrels used for Stockade’s beers.

Stockade Brew Co. offers a core line-up of five ‘sessionable’ beers alongside limited edition brews, created in-house by head brewer Daniel Fardon.

In creating the cocktail list, The Stockade Brew Co. team took inspiration from hops with flavour characteristics of citrus, floral, pine, flowery aroma, and bitterness.

A number of barrel aged wines, blended on-site with Urban Winery Projects, are also served.

Anton Szpitalak launched the company in 2015, and wanted to create a space that celebrates craft beer and appeals to locals.
