Tooborac Hotel and Brewery's first move in Melbourne will the leasing of a red brick warehouse in Carlton.
The operators of the historic venue have leased an 800 sqm warehouse previously home to a scrap metals dealer, for a shop selling Toobarac’s award winning beers and pies, and has plans for a regional food and crafts marketplace and tavern selling its craft beers operating from the site.
Fitzroys Agency Executive, Lewis Waddell negotiated the deal for 137-143 Elgin Street (pictured) on behalf of a private owner.
Toobarac Hotel and Brewery is the latest addition to Carlton’s current generation of hospitality offerings, including Johnny’s Green Room, Carlton Wine Room, D.O.C., Epocha and Mr Pietro.
Mr Waddell said, “we received more than 50 enquiries from a mix of industrial and hospitality operators, which reflects the demand for character and industrial-style spaces in the food and beverage industry."
Waddell said the thriving hospitality and lifestyle culture across Melbourne’s inner city is generating an increased level of interest from microbreweries and craft beer labels.
“Labels and brewers find they can offer a fuller experience, including newer or limited releases and products, and in an environment they can pair with tailored food and ambience.” Waddell said the conversion of former warehouse buildings into brewpubs and new venues by craft labels is being seen across the inner city.
Bodriggy Brewing Co. has just opened its brewpub from a former LP gas conversion centre on Johnston Street in Abbotsford, while Jetty Road Brewery, based in Dromana on the Mornington Peninsula, has plans to open in a former mechanics workshop in South Melbourne.
“The rapid growth in the independent beer industry as well as inner-city living means we wouldn’t have seen this type of enquiry two or three years ago, but it’s something that is expected to become more commonplace,” Waddell said.
Tooborac Hotel, up the Northern Highway, is a country hotel built in circa-1857 and has an on-site brewery.
It is the oldest National Trust-listed country pub in Victoria.
The hotel is a mainstay of an area that takes in the renowned wine-growing region of Heathcote.
Waddell is also leasing the former bank building next door to Tooborac’s new site, at 129-135 Elgin Street, on the corner of Rathdowne Street.

Carlton attracts new generation of breweries

<html><body>
The Laundy hotelier family is behind a new $45 million hotel and brewery coming to the Sydney Business Park in Marsden Park.
To be known as The Marsden, it will add to the group’s stable of about 29 hotels, pubs, bars and hospitality venues across Sydney. 
The brewery will allow patrons to tour the facility and taste the beers onsite.
Other amenities at the hotel will include a bistro, bars, gaming room, function centre, a modern state-of-the-art children’s playground, an outdoor sports lounge, a conference and function centre and TAB facilities. 
The new 256 hectare business park is currently about 20% complete with approximately $600 million in investment to date.
The broader project is expected to bring $3 billion in investment and around 30,000 jobs to the area.
Laundy Hotels Managing Director Arthur Laundy said the hotel will be a draw card for Western Sydney.
“We believe this hotel will be a destination hotel where people from all over Sydney will travel to it,” he said.
“We wanted to create a precinct in which the communities of Western Sydney can be truly proud and enjoy for generations to come. I have every confidence the local communities won’t be disappointed. 
“People from all over Sydney will be attracted to this precinct. It will become a vibrant, stylish and sophisticated new hospitality venue and function centre which is a much needed amenity in Sydney’s rapidly growing western communities.  
“Today, our construction company FDC has worked tremendously well to be months ahead of schedule to mark the topping out of our 5,900sqm facility which is due to open to the public in February 2019.”
“I look forward to buying them all a beer in a couple of months. They’ve done a tremendous job with zero injuries on site and for that I am incredibly thankful.”

A brewery and short-term accommodation three hours from Perth is on the market for an expected $6 million.
Set in Western Australia’s Margaret River tourist mecca, the property at <a href="https://www.realcommercial.com.au/news/cheeky-6m-expected-for-wa-brewery" target="_blank">4259 Caves Rd, Wilyabrup</a> spans more than 14 ha, including a farmhouse, the Cheeky Monkey Brewery and Cidery, restaurant and Ferngrove Vineyards cellar door.
A five-bedroom, two-bathroom homestead, affectionately known as Burton Farmhouse, overlooks the the cabernet sauvignon vines.
Constructed from cedar wood over a single level, the home can be a country residence, holiday getaway or, in its current form, as short-stay accommodation. The brewery, restaurant and cellar door have long-term tenancies in place.
The leased brewery, cellar door, vineyard and homestead return a rental income of $445,000 a year. The land is zoned for viticulture and tourism.

Owner Murray Burton, who bought the property seven years ago, says the property was initially mooted as a cellar door to promote Ferngrove’s Killerby label, but after further consideration his family decided to establish the brewery, which his son now runs.
“I set up Ferngrove Vineyards back in 1998 in Frankland River but we wanted a site in Margaret River so we looked around and found that particular site,” he was cited as saying in an article in www.realcommercial.com.au.
“We wanted to go down the path of establishing a cellar door but had to think a little bit wider than just a cellar door, so that’s where the brewery came in,” Burton says.
The property has great potential for more short-stay accommodation and tourist attractions, Burton said
Listing agent Phil Melville of CBRE said it would make a solid investment for someone seeking a change of pace in the south-west.
“It’s in a fabulous part of Margaret River on Caves Road, which is the main tourist strip leading in to the town and it’s only a short distance from the coast,” he said.
Melville is taking offers on the property, which is expected to fetch at least $6 million.
