No Brisbane bar blog would be complete without a trip to Netherworld Not biased or nothing, but it is my all time favourite bar. My regular haunt – and I gotta say – I really like walking into a bar where the staff yell HEY KELL at me. There’s always a FUN atmosphere when I…

Mid-way through my bar challenge, I was averaging a new bar every week, so my Facebook feed was looking pretty boozy and co-workers were beginning to ask questions. Mr Mista was not my first choice of M bar, but it was time for a mate’s catch up and to own my new piss head image.…
