Macquarie Hotel Brewery

[Doc]

I go there quite a lot.
They usually have 1-2 of their beers on in the front bar. The rest are in the back/brewery bar.
The reason I think they don't have more than that in the front bar, is because they are setup to run the front bar off kegs.
The back bar runs off the bright/serving tanks.
At lunch time there is usually someone in the back bar to serve anyway. Recently I haven't had any probs getting served in the back/brewery bar at lunch time.

I'd be there in a flash today, but I'm picking up a new PC for my dad in Ultimo.
I'll be popping in next week to finalise details for the judging day, and to put in one or two entries.

If you ever want anything from the back bar and no-one's there, the front bar staff are always happy to go out and get it for you.
edit: dropping off my entries this week.

I'll probably be up there on friday lunch dropping off a mate's entries. If anyone wants to catch up That'd be great.

I'd go Pete but I have to work. Met Andrew yesterday. Nice fella.

 

[Bizier]

I have to be in Petersham at 1.00 to meet someone, but a beer is far more tempting.

 

[petesbrew]

No worries, got a couple of workmates coming as well.
Back Bar of course.

 

[petesbrew]

Just Doc, PoMo, Matho & myself.
Good to catch up with Matho by chance, as we used to work together.

Disappointed to see the wheat wasn't on tap today.

They put a keg of Barons Black Wattleseed ale just after you left.

Sorry, I had to do the coffee with friend in petersham. I have been drinking the blackwattle of late, they have really balanced those beers out over the last few years.

Any AHB'rs going down to the Mac tonight ? We will probably pop in for a quick one between venues. Look for a tall bloke wearing a brown leather jacket drinking with a guy that looks like a cross between Jesus, Charles Manson & John Lennon. I'm the former of the two.

Around 8pm.

Dropped in for lunch today. They have a nice nice Schwartz Cider on tap in the front bar & LC Bright Ale on tap in the back bar. Overheard that they may be temporarily be taking the Secret Squirel off due to the hot weather. Worth a visit IMO.

Aha,
We must of been there at just about the same time.

Cider was great. A very sessionable drop.

Were we there at the same time beers? I was in a white Sierra Nevada t-shirt

Too funny. I actually overheard the brewer guy mentioning it to you about taking the SS off tap, I believe.. I was standing right behind you I probably have you to thank for chasing some service for the back bar hey? <_< :lol:

Yes I enjoyed a schooner of the cider too. Nicely balanced & quaffable I thought.. I wonder where it's made?

LOL :icon_cheers: I remember you. I was worried I was holding you up being served by me talking Drew's ear off.

I assumed he brewed the cider, but I didn't get the chance to ask.

Good idea Pete.

Any day is good for me. Only meetings I have at this stage is Thursday arvo.
Feel free to pick whatever is good for you, and I no doubt will be able to make it.

Have a good weekend.
