Get your Craft Beer kicks at the Woolly Mammoth

Although the Woolly Mammoth Alehouse in downtown Brisbane does not have a brewery on site, it is a very exciting Craft Beer destination.


I highly recommend a visit to this gem of a watering hole, where you can learn a thing or two about craft beers. The first thing I noticed after the big, larger-than-life, hairy Mammoth, was the huge tap-wall at the back of the bar.  This has a significant number of craft beers available, and unlike the larger one I saw in Atlanta, this one only has craft beer available (none of that mainstream weak, tasteless stuff).

The most refreshing experience was talking to a highly talented barman who knows a lot about craft beer, which is one of the things most places that sell beer need.  This young gentleman also has an inspiring project that involves specialist mixing syrups that he creates himself that change or enhance a beer's flavour.  His approach is carefully crafted and well thought-out and supported by his years of experience with other products that require a fine appreciation of aroma and flavour (which includes coffee).

The place has lots of space, several beverage services points and a band stand for live music. If you are in Brisbane and you're into craft beer then you need to visit this place. No excuses!
