Ever wondered how the kegs reach the keg room beneath the Fortune of War? The same way they did nearly 200 years ago - lowered down on ropes, one by one 🍺 No lift. No fancy system. Just a steady hand, a bit of muscle and an old pub tradition that keeps the b**rs flowing.

Well, look what the cat dragged in… 👀🍻 Some of you might remember this Fortune favourite! Dan first came to us as a backpacker and ended up sticking around for six years, becoming a vital part of our management team and the Fortune of War family.

He’s now living down in Tassie, but stopped by for a visit and it was just like old times. Great to see you, Dan! Dan Bunting
