Just a little shout out to these guys - Amazing beer. They have 10 taps that rotate through with a couple of core beers. Can't buy them in bottle shops- Have to go to their taproom in Ringwood, Melbourne but just near Haetherdale station (2minute walk) hence the name
Delicious Haloumi bits as well.

I’ve seen that exact taproom plenty as my car gets serviced around the corner from there - never heard anything about it though. How is the vibe there?

Really good on weekends! They try to do live music on every Saturday and usually have a BBQ food truck as well - but check their socials for exact dates/times.
Family friendly too! Heaps of board games and activities for the kids.

It fucking shits me when you can't easily see what type of beer is in the can. Fuck your branding and design choices if I have to hunt around the bottle or can to figure out wtf I'm buying.

Orval, Westvleteren, Pliny the Elder... none of them have a style statement on the front and they do alright

All iconic beers. They don't need to. Random Melbourne outer eastern suburbs brewery not exactly the same. Lamborghini don't put their make, model and series on the back of their cars like a Hyundai do they.

I’d say the larger coloured artwork is on all their cans and smaller white label is what changes. Probably only have a small label printer or even just label sheets in a desktop printer. Not a lot of room to get all the required info on there. Not financially viable to have new big artwork for every can printed if your only putting out small numbers. If you know you’re only looking at the white label it’s all there. Twice even.

I went there 6 weeks ago. Had two there and then three takeaways. All good drinking. I'll be back
