I’ve just moved on from a 10 day holiday in the Port Stephens area and on recommendation from a few members here I went to Murray’s for a beer. We were there about 4 days ago so I can’t recall exactly how everything was but I know if I’d have another or not.

Firstly, it was single handedly the BEST burger I have ever eaten!! From memory it was the Fred manBurger or something like that. Holy **** was it good! Other meals consumed by the others also looked and tasted sensational. But that burger..... WOW!
A few days prior I tasted their XPA. It was as described, quite tropical with mainly a passionfruit taste with a nice hoppy ending. I also tried their Whale Ale, had a mouthful of my mates beer for a taste.
Whale Ale. While not as creamy tasting as the first mouthful I tried it was still quite a pleasant drop. Definitely could’ve had a couple of these.

Angry Man. Another Ale. Was ok but wouldn’t have more than one. Not the worst beer I’ve had but I just wasn’t a fan personally. The other guys who tried mine didn’t mind it but it just wasn’t to my taste.

Mango Beer. This was great. Not sure what style beer they mixed it with (they wouldn’t say) but it’s a mango sauce type thing with a beer poured over it and stirred in. Had 3 of these....

I also tasted their cranberry (same style and beer as their mango), it was nice.
Tried their Dark Knight. Quite nice. A nice chocolate taste early. Can’t really remember much else.
All in all it was a great couple of hours had there. The place looks awesome, serves sensational food and beer and their merchandise isn’t too bad either. I did want to get one of their growlers just so I could also get their growler stubby holder, looked cool as ****!! I ended up just getting a normal stubby holder and a singlet.
Loved the pipe work for their taps too, very industrial. Bar is in a shipping container, looked perfect.
