Rubber Duckie Taphouse

Apparently Murray's at Manly has gone and in it's place the Rubber Duckie Taphouse, which features a bunch of Murray's beers as well as other craft beers.

Anyone know why.

Always was busy when I was there. I thought that place would of been a licence to print money.

Apparently it's still owned by Murrays - the re-brand is part of a plan to expand to more venues under the name, and potentially have more guest taps.

Interesting, and a good idea. Only I hope they read their reviews, I too had noticed that the service went downhill. They need enthusiastic staff and a bit more atmosphere - the Frankies dudes have done a good job with this.

I took a look at teh website and the beer list and No Murrays were mentioned and teh beers available are available at most places.

was there Beer Tap list that i missed?

 

[tiprya]

Don't think there is one (used to be a tap list on the murrays site).

When I was there a couple of weeks ago there was mostly Murrays on tap with a couple Birra Del Borgo beers on.

Was very empty for a Satuday night too - a venue like that would be packed on the other side of the harbour. Do Manly people not get good beer?

• if you really care, i dont

have a look at the thread on Beeradvocate,
apparently the richies who own murrays are c*nts, and fucked the place big time, and apparently murays daughter is a turd, and thye went broke twice in the location, and needed to re jig
