Having been a long time regular at the Platform I've seen the service go up and down when it comes to the staff knowledge about the beer. When I started going there almost two years ago there was a guy on the bar (Tony) who was perfect for the job. He actively influenced the beer list and could tell you a detailed story behind every beer they had in stock, as well as recommend other drops worth trying. Tony also made an effort to train up the other staff so they could tell you something about the beers on tap at least.
Unfortunately Tony moved to Melbourne as he was sick of spending most of his time telling people that if they want a VB they should go next door. Alex was his replacement and is probably the most knowledgeable beer guy they have on staff now. Most of the other girls are just backpackers that don't know much

Yeah Tony was good and did get a lot of beers on by talking to the reps etc.........I don't even ask the staff anymore......just ask for a sample and google!!
