Special Halloween night out at Suzie Wong’s Goodtime Bar. Security guard was delighted when I asked if this place used to be The Bowery? “Yes it was!” (Revealing how old I must be) Cool, cool, I’m still hip. Yes I will walk through this fridge door to the bar.. Scotch cocktails tonight, Jameson’s peach &…

Right, back to beers. My bro recommended Range for an after-work drink, so he casually popped by on a Thursday afternoon, and I took 2 buses to check it out. Bar #18. On the home stretch of the challenge.  Like most craft breweries in Brisbane, they’re pocketed within industrial areas – with no great parking…

Quick bus trip from Ping Pong to here, it was the ONLY time during the challenge I went to 2 bars in one night. I’d heard great things about Queens! It was new and getting popular so I went to see what the fuss was all about. At a not-too-dodgy part of the Valley, there’s…

Pretty pink everything at Ping Pong bar, plus my hair was still in pink mode so I kinda matched the pink picnic tables. Sitting room at the bar was all booked out, so we’re placed at communal tables out front. We had a nice view of the Gasworks but the bar is prettier to look…

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.…

Like I said, I was on a roll, and Lord Alfred’s was on the way home from work. Bar #12 of the challenge. Just wanted to pop in and see the latest renovations. This place has progressed through several makeovers, and once upon a time it was called Hotel LA. I’m sure it has a…

Keen to see some bands at King Lear’s Throne and find out if there really is a throne at this bar… or a king. So I walked up to the palace, guarded by security (um) guards, and answered three riddles to get in (just kidding, I showed them my ID, doy) and went right in.…
