Address: 30 Gertrude St, Fitzroy VIC 3065, Australia

Pouring from: 8 kegs

We drank: Fresh Hop Chop by Hop Nation Brewing Co. and a bloody mary

Small bar that seemed to be mostly focussed on being a bar for their concert space - which isn't a problem at all.

Not a whole lot to write home about on the decor. Wooden tables with stools and some bar seating. Nothing wrong with it at all.

Beer was delicious and served in a proper pint glass, wish it was a bit cheaper, but you can't win 'em all. Bloody Mary was 3/5.

As with many places we go to, food looked good but we didn't try any.

Other than Nick Cave, can't remember what was playing, which is good because we're usually quite sensitive to it.
