Comfy couches, tropical plants and street art combine to create a wacky kind of charm at Moon Dog Craft Brewery. Friendly staff are pumped to share their passion for beer with you and will talk you through the core range and limited edition beers on offer.
Experience refreshing twists on the usual suspects, such as the citrusy zing of the Love Tap lager, one of the beers in the core range along with Old Mate, a hoppy pale ale, Sun Cat, a fruity IPA and Mack Daddy, a smooth dark ale.
Ask about the seasonal brews. You might get something like Cake Hole, a Black Forest stout or Splice of Heaven, a pine lime IPA. Specialty beers include the Black Lung, a smokey barrel-aged stout and Bad Boy Bubbly, a barley “Champagne” but a beer nonetheless. To find out more about the inspiration behind some of these concoctions, join the free tour held every Saturday afternoon and Thursday night.
Every week at Moon Dog you’ll find some sort of event happening. Take your date to one of the film screenings, catch the footy on the weekends with mates, use your brain at trivia night or dance the night away with live music and parties in the Oasis Ballroom. There’s even an impressive selection of boardgames. If hunger strikes, make your way to the funky little caravan out front where you can grab a pizza.
