Whats On Tap At The Platform Bar - Brissy

[WSC]

At Chappos request here is what is going on at the Platform Bar:

Squire Amber
Fat Yak Pale Ale
Hoegaarden
Squire Golden
Little Creatures Bright Ale
LCPA
Squire Pilsner
Stone and Wood Draught


Coming soon - Barking Flamingo

What I have requested:
MT beers - any of them
Sunshine Coast Beers

As other posts they have the Mad Brewers Commerorative Ale plus heaps of others in bottle. Good range of German Wheats and other Aussie beers.

Go next door to the bottle shop for good range of beers to take home.

I have no affiliation although they do give me a free pony to try new beers........I think they do that for everyone ......

would love to share the recipe but as i don't own the brewery it wouldn't be right of me to do so.
However ... if you ask the right questions I would be more than happy to answer and give as much assistance as I can - I just can't give everything away.

Looks like it's at the Grand Central.

Breakfast Creek also have Fat Yak and Hoegaarden on tap, as well as other stuff

Scott, have you approached them, they really need more decent QLD beers....James Squire, Little Creature and Matilda Bay are good but they are hardly struggling micros.

Maybe we need to start a petition???

Be worth talking to the drinks chain Brendan, they do beer tastings monthly at the Bel (and elsewhere I guess). Barons managed to get two new seasonals (never bottled) on a tap there as well. (Google the rubber stamp for a look)

Grand Central Station on Ann street. They say they're open from noon to late Monday to Saturday.

And yes, some more local brews (MT, Brisbane Brewing, Sunshine Coast, Northern Rivers) would be great. I do like the Stone & Wood even though it seems to taste different each time I have one. Speaking of Stone & Wood.. I guess its available at the Story Bridge Hotel now.

Enjoyed the Barons Bock when it was at the Platform, and liked having the Alpha Pale too. Last time I was there the tap-beer selection seemed a bit lacking. Now they have Little Creatures instead of the Alpha, which ain't bad but I can get it elsewhere (Milanos on Queen Street), and Fat Yak can be had anywhere on Queen street these days.

Still, the place is quite nice overall.

Winkle,

They would not sell me any Hoegaarden glasses until I saw the manager (Who surrendered to my charm :lol: ). Have things changed that much? :blink: What did you promise the manager? h34r:

I agree we need these guys to represent. I don't see why there can't be more support for local micros and free up taps to put them on. Why waste taps to put on JS & LC brews when you can get them right next door or many other venues around the city. The current tap list is embarrassing but I understand that they have a market to serve to (read:suits). But I reckon the majority of patrons would support say MT Beer if the staff know the beer and have the willingness to push quality craft brews, instead of looking bored and not really giving a shit like they usually do. I'll end my rant now but I have a dream that maybe oneday we will have a real beer bar in Brissie...hint hint Taphouse h34r: :icon_cheers:

The platform bar is great with regard to assistance for small brewers and support us all in many ways.
