Since 2012, Young Henry’s Brewery has been located in a leased warehouse in Newtown, establishing itself as a popular bar and its signature Newtowner pale ale as a widely recognized beer in pubs across the city.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and his fiancee Jodie Haydon went there on their first date.

“The Inner West is a vibrant and attractive area and it needs housing. Still, that means we’re looking for a new home.”

Co-founder Dan Hampton said Young Henry’s would remain a part of the local scene.
”We’ll always be part of Newtown. Our main beer is the Newtowner,” he said.
“So the fans and community need to know that we’re sticking around.”
