Last year we turned TEN, brewed an epic 10 collab b**rs, and gave away free b**r for a year to ten extremely lucky punters! Huge shoutout to the legends at Sea Legs Brewing for putting together this cracking video recap of the madness.

While we’re not going quite as unhinged for number eleven, you know we can’t let a milestone pass without some proper b**r hall shenanigans. Join us on Saturday, November 14th to help us celebrate our 11th Birthday!

Lock it in your calendars, gather the crew, and save the date. Full details on taps, food, and birthday surprises dropping very soon! 🗓️✨

Next weekend we are going for round two of Oktoberfest with 24 Bavarian brews across Friday and Saturday (October 2 and 3). You loved our Grilled Rouladen so much for round one we are binging it back!⁠
⁠
A traditional Bavarian dish of thinly sliced meat rolled around smoky bacon, tangy mustard, pickles, and onion, seared over the grill for a deep smoky char before being slow-braised to fork-tender perfection. 🔥⁠
⁠
It’s the ultimate comfort plate to wash down with a massive stein of crisp l***r!🍻

We’ve had a house tap shuffle down the lane!

For the next few months, our easy-drinking Taps 1 & 2 are being taken over by the absolute legends at Seeker Brewing straight out of Wollongong!

Here is what’s pouring on the high-rotation session handles:

Tap 1: Daydreamer XPA ☀️ — Super refreshing, tropical, and perfectly balanced for crisp, all-day crushability.

Tap 2: PK (Port Kembla) L***r 🍺 — Pure l***r perfection. Clean, cold, ultra-crisp, and built for l***r lovers.

Whether you're starting your session or looking for a reliable go-to pint, Seeker has you sorted.

Pull up a stool, order a cold one, and welcome Wollongong to the bar!
