Hi Skylar, great series that brought back marvellous memories for me. Here in Australia we have many of the same issues impacting our pubs. Nowhere near as many tied pubs but breweries often use their corporate muscle to tie pubs by 'offering' to install/update/replace taps, lines, chillers etc if they concede to having most of their taps pouring their beer. This leaves 1 or 2 for the craft breweries and others to fight over. Don't even start on the alcohol tax that goes up every 6 months and is sending most small craft breweries to the wall. Still there are plenty of places for a good pub crawl and some of the country pubs are the best in the world. Try a few if you ever get down here!
Hey Jeff, thanks so much for reading and your kind words. I would love to get to Australia, hopefully soon! I'll definitely keep this in mind. Any particular areas in Australia known for them or suggestions for a thirsty first timer?
Sydney has the most historic but Melbourne, especially Brunswick, Collingwood and Fitzroy have the best variety. Anywhere along the Murray River is great if you get up that way.
Great finish to the series. And I am really glad for the summary of everything ; it was sometimes hard to keep all the phrases straight in my head, so you re clarified everything at the end.
I hope others find this series and enjoy the The Morning Tipple as much as I did! It was interesting, fun and insightful! Looking forward to your next projects! 🍻🎄🎅🏼 Happy Holidays!

Thank you! I appreciate the kind words. Apologies we weren't able to meet up in York, it got a little hectic there the last few days. Next time!
