Swiped from the Herald Sun, "Across The Bar" column;
Pumped about Pommy beer
THERE'S a touch of ye olde worlde happening down at North Melbourne's Court House Hotel.
Barmeister Scott Thomas has done a deal with the Matilda Bay brewing crowd to have Stickler's Best Bitter on tap.
The Stickler's is made from water treated so it's just like water the Poms make beer from, and the brewers are importing funny sounding things like East Kent Goldings and Fuggles hops for their big kettles.
So it's a ye olde Pom-style beer and the Matilda Bay people decided it had to be served like a ye olde Pommy beer.
That's when Thomas jumped out from behind the bar and went hunting for some genuine ye olde Pommy beer engines to pump the stuff up from the Court House cellars to the bar.
We're told they work a treat.
Just so long as he doesn't hook 'em up to a Carlton Draught barrel.
