Atomic Beer closes: Redfern brewery bites the dust
Another popular Australian brewery has finally ditched its drinks.
Atomic Beer in Redfern, in Sydney’s west, announced over the weekend that it had decided with “a heavy heart” to close its doors for good on Sunday.
Since opening in 2020, the company has operated as both a brewery and a taproom.
The pub announced on social media that it would be closing suddenly and invited guests for a final round of beers on Father’s Day.
“It’s been an incredible few years and we can’t express how wonderful it is to be a part of this community,” the magazine said.
‘We’ve been through some wild times and we can’t thank you enough for your contribution to the Atomic story.
‘It was a pleasure Redfern, to be with us for one last cheer and a nod to the good times.’
The sad news was also confirmed on the brewery’s website.

“Thank you for your support over the years and for bringing the great atmosphere with us to Redfern!” said the singer.
‘We hope to be of service to you again in the future!’
Shocked supporters were quick to show their love for their favourite cafe and express their sadness at the closure.
“The best bar in Sydney,” someone wrote.
Another added: ‘Very, very sad to hear this’.
A third commented: ‘A huge loss for Sydney. Atomic had the best beers and food and so much personality!
Another asked if they would start producing beer from elsewhere, but was disappointed with the answer.
“I’m afraid, but unfortunately, there will be no more Atomic beer produced,” Atomic Beer replied.
The location’s closure also means that Atomic Beer will continue to produce its drinks (pictured Atomic Beer plates pale ale)
The location is one of several breweries that have recently gone out of business due to the economy and high inflation, including Billson’s Brewery, which started 160 years ago.
The couple who ran Billson’s, Nathan and Felicity Cowan, also blamed high excise duties on spirits.
Daily Mail Australia contacted Atomic Beer for comment.
