Aw man, I miss seeing Dutch play. What a great, genuine bluesman! I wanted to organise a group of Australian blues musicians to play at the New Orleans Jazz Festival, and he was among them.

Used to go & see Dutch play at the Railway Hotel in the mid 90's when he had Geoff Aitchison as a sidekick. Geoff tried to crack-onto my girlfriend at the time (she was a corker!). I told him she was an absolute dud in bed (a total lie ) & he backed-off... :super:

This was going to be the name of my brewery but since theres **** all chance of that happening I'll let you use it Yob.....
"Widdershins" Just a great word I reckon, little bit mystical and dark. There's my suggestion. Cheers.

Widdershins means anticlockwise & is considered unlucky. Why would you choose that for a brewery/bar name??

I think that's a better brewery name than bar name, IMHO. Hang onto it!

See above.

And no socks

Now THAT'S a great name for a bar!

Geoff Achison, man, haven't seen him in years.

Anticlockwise, to keep on the left hand side, opposite way to the sun. Depends which definition you read. I just love the word really. And it's a great song. Widdershins https://g.co/kgs/vmttF3

Keep to the left on the way up/down the road to St. Andrews, for sure!

I tried googling "Widdershins round the kirk" (something from my dim memory), but drew a blank.

You & Yob seem to have a similar taste in music. Not really conducive to a bar environment....

 

[Weizguy]

has anyone thought of "The low road"?

Still rocking. Got a new album out ... Heard a couple of tracks .. Still sounding great. In England on tour at present.p

 

[malt junkie]

If you did name it "And no socks" you could have a doorman enforce the sock rule!

Doorman would obviously need a beard like Yob's but weigh in twice as much, with lots of Ink.

Reckon the name of the bar is fairly irrelevant. If it's got what the punters want, you should be okay.

The simple name "Taphouse" was a beautiful, simple name.

If I had some $$$ to spare I would set up a brewpub specialising in craft beer, comedy and live music. Call it "the BrewHaHa"

 

[Curly79]

"The Rubbity Dub"

 

[WarmerBeer]

"Vic Case Swap"

That way there will be less discussion on venue twice a year.

Not going to find many hipsters in Mitcham.

Dont need em. The cafes out the back of the hypothetical (and f*** me if that's not a great name for a bar) bar are heaving on weekends, and busy in the week, house prices are nuts, and the demographic is rapidly changing to cash rich, time poor couples and families who have money to spend, but are really picky about where they spend it. The only competition is the soulless mega pub over the road, where the hipsters will go anyway as it's super post ironic or some such crap.

 

[Yob]

Thought we'd almost settled on foragers drop and then you throw bar hypothetical at me..
