Australia’s First Co-operative Brewery Launches in Sydney
16 December 2016
Hopsters, the first co-operative brewery in Australia, has launched in time for Christmas.
Co-founder and director Marco Vargas said “the Hopsters vision is a brewery owned by its members where everyone has a stake and a voice.”
Vargas hopes the brewery will unite and educate people with diverse interests in fine quality craft beer.
Hopsters is a for-profit co-operative and will aim to distribute dividends to its members.
Anyone living in New South Wales can now become a member of the brewery for $250.
