Brew-pub woes in Melbourne

[Snowdog]

Getting back to this Footscray Moon Dog pub... happened to be walking by with my wife from her VU campus office and we decided to step in. The place was doing good business, but the acoustics were crap. Echoy and loud, and it just made everyone try and talk louder. Maybe a twentysomething would like it, but with our tinnitus and partial deafness, it was impossible to communicate, and we ended up leaving without ordering a beer.

A sound idea!
There needs to be a bar and a lounge area. There will be many twentysomethings gaining your otic condition.
Do they actually brew on the premises?

no they don't brew on the premise of the franco cozza building .

i went there quite a few months ago and had a good squizz around the 3 levels the lift can barely take 2 people to roof top


its a shame they dont .


1st floor a riding bull and the floor layout is kinda weird and the bar itself

2nd level cant remember if that has a beer and if it doesnt means you have to either go to the roof top bar or go down to 1st floor

3rd floor is the roof top and must admit its rather spacious area with a small bar and could be pleasant sitting outside on a nice summers evening


having said that only had a stout and pale ale as the rest of the beers was a bit meh for my liking

moondog i would say alot youngsters would love there beers
