He may have been leaving Sydney but New York was the only place on Robert Pattinson's mind yesterday when the Twilight star flew out of Australia after a whirlwind promo tour.

Pattinson strode through Sydney International Airport sporting a New York beanie and his requisite dark sunglasses - an accessory the actor utilised a lot during his visit, and Confidential may know why.

Like his famed Twilight alter ego Pattinson proved quite the the nocturnal beast while in town, cutting a swath through the Harbour City's best bars including Hugo's at Kings Cross, the QT Bar in the Gowings Building and, on Wednesday night, the Lo-Fi Bar at Darlinghurst.

And it seems Pattinson took a liking to a local drop while in town. His beer of choice - the Aussie-brewed Coopers.

Why KStew isn't coming to Australia with R-Patz

The Daily Telegraph reports

Robert Pattinson will touch down in Sydney later this month for a Twilight promotional visit, but Kristen Stewart won't be by his side despite their rumoured reconciliation.

Why?

Because studio executives are worried about how fans will react to their rekindled romance, and have decided they should go their separate ways.

The couple split in July after pictures emerged of Stewart kissing married director Rupert Sanders and although Pattinson has forgiven her, the duo and The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 co-star Taylor Lautner will travel to different continents for promotional duties.

Robert will focus on Australia, Kristen is being sent to Japan while Taylor will be visiting Brazil.

The Sun reports: “Many of Rob’s fans are still angry with Kristen and it has been decided that all three should go their separate ways.

Pattinson arrives in Australia on October 21.
