FROTH'S STORY
We value integrity, community, teamwork, honesty and fostering career advancement.
Froth Craft Brewery opened in Exmouth, north-west WA, in February 2017 and the craft beer oasis on the Ningaloo quickly became a multi-award winning institution. It outgrew its capabilities to meet demand so we expanded in to the south-west with another award-winning family-friendly venue: Froth Craft Bunbrewery, which recently won A.H.A (W.A) 2023 Best New Venue Award. This, our second venue, was newly built in the heart of Bunbury, providing the city’s highly anticipated inaugural microbrewery, and opened on 8 July 2022.
As the brand grew so did the demand for our products. Seizing an opportunity to 'frothchise' in a stunning location in the metro area, 'Froth Craft Beach' in North Beach somehow smashed a fit-out in under 3 months and opened its doors to lines of thirsty punters on 14 December 2023. A craft beer taphouse/pizzeria that also dishes out cocktails and has a great wine list - with a Froth-renowned focus on a welcoming, friendly and laid-back vibe, overlooking the adjacent Indian Ocean on busy West Coast Drive - seems to be exactly what the northern suburbs of Perth was thirsty for.
