Yes, makes sense!

No. Usually sending notification emails is not part of your domain.
Instead you could trigger it from your controller (but it should be a 
one-liner there). E.G.:

$this->beerRepository->add($newBeer);
$this->flashMessageContainer->add('Yummy, beer!');
$this->notificationService->sendBeerNotification($newBeer);

Or, if the notification service is just a thin wrapper like [1]:
$this->notificationService->sendTemplateEmail($recipient, $sender, 'New 
Beer', 'BeerNotificationTemplate', array('beer' => $newBeer));

That doesn't really matter. But yes :)
