Capital Brewing Company (also known as Capital Brewing Co.) is a Canberra-based brewery. It was founded in 2016 by brewers Tom Hertel and Laurence Kain,[1] and has a brewpub in the Canberra suburb of Fyshwick.[2]
The company is one of the largest craft breweries in Australia.[3] It was previously the beer sponsor of the Greater Western Sydney (GWS) Giants, which represent the Australian Capital Territory in the Australian Football League (AFL).[4]
In 2021, two of the brewery's beers (Capital XPA and Coast Ale) were voted in the top 10 craft beers in the annual 'GABS Hottest 100 Craft Beers' competition.[5]
In April 2022, Capital Brewing Co. became the first Australian brewery to be certified as carbon-neutral by the Australian Government.[6][7]
In 2023, the company announced it would plant a native Australian tree for every goal scored by the Greater Western Sydney Giants, as part of its 'Kick a Goal, Plant a Tree' initiative.[8]
