Wayward Brewery opening hours

The Wayward Brewery opening hours are a little odd. This Camperdown craft brewery is open from 12 noon to 10pm on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. But from Monday to Wednesday, it’s 4pm to 9pm. And on Sunday it’s 12pm to 8pm.

The Taproom has a strange rustic meets industrial vibe, but it’s fairly utilitarian. The beer does the talking rather the décor.

Wayward beers at Camperdown craft brewery

There are always several beers on tap at this Camperdown craft brewery, but the core range at the Wayward Brewery is five brews. These are the pilsner, the 6% IPA, the 4.2% Everyday Ale pale ale, the 3.5% Hazy Mid and the much more distinctive Raspberry Berliner Weisse.

In amongst the core range, the Wayward Brewery offers up a series of seasonal and limited edition beers. These are often much more experimental. You might get a coffee and coconut stout, you might get a peach hard seltzer.
