damn - I've just learned Brothers Beer has opened a new bar in my hood.
Nice in some ways! To be honest, I've found their beer to be quite disappointing and grossly overpriced. I bought a 1L jug last time I was at their city works depot , and was charged over forty bucks! For a litre!
I'm voting with my feet, supporting non hipster bars now
jesus fuck!!!! did you get a handjob with that jug?

The Southern X in welly charges 48 bucks for a jug of Craft beer but it’s one of those big ones which can easily fill four handles with a bit left over. 40 bucks for a litre is ridiculous.

Handle? One (sniffs first) drinks their craft beer from a tasting glass surely?

yeah, for a pitcher of 2.2L or so I get that. But a litre? FFS.

The price of drinking out is starting to get ridiculous for sure. All the breweries at the Newtown festival had the price about right, 8-10$ for a plastic cup. When you’re paying 14-15$ a handle it gets pretty hard to justify.

I brew because I enjoy it, but it doesn't take too much beer at around $2/litre to pay off a shiny stainless steel brewery.

'ansome, me lover! I'll be there drektly for a pint, er, glass.

@nzzp I have to concur The Birkenhead joint had sold out of the only Brothers I really rate. Price points on the beers looked OK $11-13 / glass - until I asked and found out the glass was 330 mls.
Jugs weren't quite as bad as you found in the city but 31-33 for a litre is still a joke.
I might go again as the food menu looked interesting but otherwise there is no temptation to walk a km past a freehouse with better beer in bigger glasses for the same price and where they give me a 10% discount or even the, even closer, gastro pub that has panhead for $41 for 1.8 litres and where I also get a 10% loyalty discount.

@voodoo also, i find Dans craft beer selection to be pretty ordinary, and hit up First Choice as a better option
Dans is fucking great for Red Wine though
