About

I’m Kabir Arora (second guy from the right, first being my proud father Baljit ‘BJ’) - born in Delhi, raised by its monsoon streets, and shaped by a decade by the sea in Manly.
My journey to Sydney brought me to beer: not just as a drink, but as a way to connect people and places.

At Manly Hops, beer is more than flavour - it’s a bridge.
Each brew shares what happens when an Indian heart meets an Australian coastline. Our gypsy brewing roots keep us nimble, playful, and experimental: small-batch beers that carry stories from beaches to backyards, from Delhi to Manly.

Whether you’re sipping in a neighbourhood bar, carrying a can abroad, or one day finding us on flights between Sydney and Mumbai, Manly Hops exists to remind you: home is not a single place. It’s the taste of where you’ve been, and the promise of where you’re going.

We’re all about small batch journeys.

Each limited release is brewed to capture a moment - a taste of Manly through the eyes of an Indian boy, shaped by surf, spice, and stories. Here today, gone tomorrow, these beers remind us that the best things in life are fleeting.

So let’s share a cold one - whether on the beach in Manly or a flight bound for Mumbai.
