Lonely Planet review

Around a bend in South Hobart, standing in startling, gothic isolation, is the Cascade Brewery. Australia's oldest brewery, it was established in 1832 next to the clean-running Hobart Rivulet, and is still pumping out superb beer and soft drinks today. Tours involve plenty of stair climbing, with tastings at the end (including Cascade Premium, the global sales smash!).

Wear flat, enclosed shoes and long trousers (no shorts or skirts); bookings are essential. You can take a tour on weekends, but none of the machinery will be operating (brewers have weekends too).
