History
Tooheys dates from 1869, when John Thomas Toohey (an Irish immigrant from Melbourne) obtained his brewing license and commenced brewing Tooheys Old in a purchased brewery at the present day Darling Harbour area of Sydney. In 1902, the company went public as Tooheys Limited, and commenced brewing lager (the present day Tooheys New) in 1930. In 1955, the brewery moved to Lidcombe, where it is currently sited.Bond Corporation purchased Tooheys in 1984. In 1992, Tooheys was purchased by Lion Nathan, which remains its owner. Tooheys is the major sponsor of Rugby Union in New South Wales and Queensland, and the Melbourne Cup (horseracing) in Victoria.

Beers
- Tooheys New is a standard lager and the most popular of the Tooheys' beers. It can be found on tap at almost any bar in New South Wales, although it is growing in some other states South Australia and Western Australia. It was first brewed in 1930. It was available in cans and bottles as Tooheys Draught, although this name was changed to Tooheys New for consistency in 1998.
- Tooheys Old is a Dark ale, and is supposedly similar to the Tooheys brothers original brew. It is fairly common on tap throughout New South Wales.
- Tooheys Extra Dry is a crisp-tasting dry style lager. It is sold throughout Australia, though only available in bottles and occasionally cans, until late 2005 when it began to be sold on tap. It is popular with young people, which may be why Tooheys Extra Dry (TED) sponsors the Big Day Out and many surfing events around Australia. In May 2006, Tooheys Extra Dry Platinum, a beer with increased alcohol content of 6.5%, was launched, with the first shipment selling out in days. It is also sold in 8-packs as opposed to the traditional 6-packs most bottled beers are packaged in.
- Tooheys Pils is a pilsner. It was launched in 1998 as part of the effort to enhance the image of Tooheys.
- Hahn Premium was launched in 1988. It is a German- style lager, with a slightly bitter taste.
- Hahn Super Dry was launched in October 2006. It is a clean and dry tasting beer with a slightly sweet finish. It has no additives or preservatives and is also low in carbohydrates.
- Hahn Premium Light is the largest selling low alcohol or 'light' beer in Australia.
