I don't really tick much nowadays. Still enjoy a decent beer just as much, along with the community that Ratebeer originally built. I've not moved to that popular app and never will - It's become a monopoly which is having too much influence on today's craft beer scene.

A small one room modern place just back from the main road (turn off past the McDonald’s and it’s on the ground floor of the back of that building). 20 taps of there own beer. I only tried their IPL but really enjoyed it, so much that I had more than one. Food is Western, burgers, chips, fried chicken. Decent place, though wouldnt be the most fun if I’d been solo at the time. Revisiting on. a Friday night and there’s a queue system to get in. It is good focused first though, and popular for what they do. Which is why I returned.

A bloody nice Pilsner. More of an IPL really, nice hop character. Tropical fruity and citrus.

Ignore the name, it’s certainly not a convenience store. It’s basically just a brewery with a few tables. Certainly a unique little place in the center. Simple but decent beers, served straight from the tanks. Love it!

Well made and decent light stout. Good cocoa and roast flavour. Lightly moderate sweet and bitter. Decent.

Fruity, citrus, lightly grassy and malty behind. A little sweet and a little more bitter. Simple but decent enough.
