Brewery Insurance

Pop-Up Taproom Insurance

A second site or a seasonal pop-up can grow your brand, but it is a separate location with its own landlord, staff, stock and liability. Your existing policy may not extend to it automatically.

Example

How cover can respond in practice

A brewery runs a three-month summer pop-up bar in a shopping precinct. The existing policy only lists the main brewery address. After a patron is injured, the insurer questions whether the pop-up was covered. Declaring it first removes the doubt.

  • Public and liquor liability for the new venue

  • Workers’ compensation for added staff

  • Landlord or event organiser requirements

  • Short-term cover for pop-ups with fixed dates
