CIDER & BEER
CiderArquiteka apple cider Coldstream. VIC 12The perfect balance of bitter and sweet, complimented by floral undertones. A clean finish and no lingering aftertaste.
Beer“You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a
football team, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer." -Frank Zappa
Trumer Hopfenspiel (2.9%) Salzburg, AT 9A special cold-hopping technique using international Triskel and Cascade aroma hop varietals gives this light and effervescent beer its unique fruitiness. Totally natural with a subtle cloudiness.
Garage Project White Mischief (2.9%) Wellington, NZ 13Cider in a beer. Low alcohol content, higher acidity, and a soft white peach and subtle yogurt quality allows for a super crisp, clean, and refreshing beer, with a touch of saltiness
Stockade 8Bit IPA (6.5%)This IPA is a refresher all year round. 8Bit has aggressive citrus, floral and hop aromas and caramel malt flavours. It’s bitterness is balanced by a sweet malt character.
Marrickville, NSW 13
Two Birds Pale Ale (5.0%) Spotswood, VIC 11.5Smooth and silky, ultra-pale and thirst-quenchingly tasty.
Garage Project Beer (4.8%)Pilsner malt, Saaz hops and Czech yeast. That’s it. Sometimes simple is exactly what you want. Why bother dressing it up? It is what it is ; beer.
Wellington, NZ 12.5
Quiet Deeds Vanilla Porter (6.2%)The Quiet Deeds seasonal vanilla porter combines classic porter flavours of roasted coffee and dark chocolate with a big burst of vanilla. A moderate bitterness keeps the subtle sweetness in check, while it's thick body and smooth mouthfeel make for a big beer that remains perfectly balanced.
Glen Iris, VIC 13
Peroni Red (4.7%) Rome, ITA 9A lager with more pronounced malt and hoppy characters. First brewed in 1846 in Lombardia, Italy, it has grown to be the most recognizable of all Italian beers.
Trumer Pilsner (4.9%) Salzburg, AT 12An aromatic nose, vigorous carbonation and dry finish will calm the nerves and relax the senses.

SPARKLING AND CHAMPAGNE
SparklingOne of the great things about sparkling wine is it can be matched with almost all food, and is therefore an appropriate drink-well-always!

Pétillant NaturelPét-Nat is short for pétillant naturel, which is simply French for “naturally sparkling” – and that’s essentially what it is! This lightly fizzy wine has gained a bit of buzz lately with growing popularity in the natural/organic movement and in more rudimentary methods of winemaking, but people have been sipping on it for centuries.

SINGLE MALTS & SCOTCHScotch
30mLHighland Park Valkryie 45.9% Orkney, SCT 23The first in the Viking Legend series with marauding Danish designers, this marriage of heather smoke and fully peated single malt emphasises balance between nutmeg, dried citrus and dark cacao.
Ancnoc 12yo 40% Highlands, SCT 16Pronounced “arrrr-noc”, our favourite highland single malt bears pear and honey straight up on the tongue. Finishing with the malted barley texture we’d expect from a highland whisky, full on winter spices ride across the palate and deliver the satisfaction the Rolling Stones can’t get none of.
Aberlour a’bunadh 60.% Highlands, SCT 23.5Pure spring water from the highest distillery in Scotland is part of the reason for the delicate palate of this whisky. Slightly smokey and floral aromas make this a good choice from the beginner to the experienced scotch fan.
Dalmore 12 years old 40% Highlands, SCT 19.5New and improved, the Dalmore 12 evokes images of camping huts, thick coats and roaring fires with a side ofhot cocoa. Toasted coffee underscores a whisky full of orange marmalades and spices worthy of the best fruitcake.Take a bottle with your next hiking expedition, or to a mountaintop. Or don’t and share ours instead.
Auchentochan Three Wood 43% Lowlands, SCT 17It’s a bit of a mouthful, isn’t it? Aush-ent-ooo-shin. Only the Scottish. Made a wee bit outside Glasgow, this is a whisky which is anything but traditional. Super delicious and smooth from the maturation in Bourbon, Oloroso and PX Sherry casks mix to make a wonderfully rich palate.
Balvenie Caribbean Cask 14 years old 43%
Speyside, SCT 21
Matured for fourteen years in tradition bourbon casks before sapping the extra flavour from Caribbean rum wood for several months. Rum funk and toasted banana flavours leech into the whisky with startling presence, rounding out what would ordinarily be expected from Speyside distilleries. Ask Hannah about one for extra love.
Glenfiddich 12year Speyside, SCT 15Carefully matured in the finest American oak and European oak sherry casks for at least 12years, it is mellowed in oak marrying tuns to create its sweet and subtle oak flavours. Creamy with a long, smooth and mellow finish, this 12 Year Old is the perfect example of Glenfiddich’s unique Speyside style and is widely proclaimed the best dram in the valley.
Smoky30mL
Jura Superstition 43% Jura, SCT 2013% of the Jura whiskies produced for this single malt are rumoured to be the peatiest the island has ever seen…Evocative smoke rides a textured, creamy mouthfeel and delivers notes of black forest honey and hot buttered toast all wrapped up by a sheet of cocoaLaphroig 10 years old Islay, SCT 14This is a full full-bodied, smoky gem, with a residual sweetness and a hint of salt amid the seaweedy, peaty characters before a long warming finish. A classic dram
Kilchoman 100% Islay Red wine cask 50%
Islay, SCT24
On the windswept west coast of Islay lies the newest distillery on the island. Renowned for farm to bottle distilling, not one drop of Kilchoman whiskey has been created with ingredients brought in off-site. Less peated than some from the Island, features vanilla and banana on the nose, with

fresh citrus and intense butterscotch through the palate. A long stewed apple and smoky finish will leave you a convert for ever.

DIGESTIFCognac

22
Straight from the imagination of madman distiller Alexandre Gabriel, chestnut barrels markedly improve the brandy’s complexity and flavour profile to enhance its honeyed and candied fruit nature while also developing antioxidant activity. An extremely limited run from us to you, and decanted at the table.Francois Voyer Torres de Grande Champagne Cognac, FRA

Using eaux de vie from the renowned, respected and revered Grand Champagne region of cognac to craft this quality cognac. Spicy, rich and well balanced with fragrant notes of apricot and violet petals.Mery Melrose VS Cognac Organic 40% Grande Champagne, Cognac, FRA 16This VS is full of life, having rested in a combination of new and used French oak casks. It glows like honey in a glass, and exhibits a lively expressive aroma of fresh peach, apricot, mint violets and chalk. On the palate dried fruits, and gentle oak spice segue to a refreshing finish characterized by green herbs and the distinct minerality typical of the Grande Champagne region.Jean Grosperrin 1992 Petite Champagne, Cognac, FRA 32For those who prefer single malt whiskies comes this single vintage cognac, featuring heavy date flavours along with refreshing grapefruit textures and white oak aroma.
Paul Giraud Cognac XO 25 year old Grande Champagne, Cognac, FRA 24A hidden champion and very good value for money. This is typical in style for a cognac that has been aged for 25 years. Lots of fruit with a stunning long finish.

Calvados
Laird’s Apple Brandy ‘Rare 12 years old’ New Jersey, USA 20One of the oldest distilleries in the United States, Laird’s ferments their apples naturally and ages this brandy in charred oak for twelve years. A trace more yellow than a similar cognac, with pepper and mint on the nose and baked toffee through the palate. This American cousin to calvados bears more texture, body and aroma.Massenez Vieux Calvados Normandy FRA 15Attractive medium gold colour with aromas of apple-cinnamon, cloves, pie crust, caramel and yellow pear. Drywith a subtle, elegant apple-cinnamon replay.Victor Gontier, Domfrontais Vieille Réserve 2003 Normandy FRA 19We rarely discover apple brandies from the AOC Calvados Domfrontais region here in Australia. The appellation reflects the long tradition of pear orchards in the region and is represented in the brandy, featuring 30% pear fruit alongside the usual apples. This lighter coloured spirit couples with a more elegant bouquet than usual, and is aged for minimum three years.
