15 Best Bars in Melbourne | Condé Nast Traveler
"A boilermaker is a beer accompanied by a shot of whiskey—not exactly the most refined manner of drinking—so this bar in the CBD is far more stylish than it has any right to be. The room is warm and woodsy, with an absolutely mesmerizing number of bottles lined up behind the bar—the stools are the best place to be—and pleasing blues music emanating from the sound system. There are more than 900 whiskies, which range from $12 to $380. There are also 10 beer taps, and what comes out of them—craft beer from Australia and further afield—changes weekly. If that doesn’t quench your thirst, try one of the excellent cocktails, including an ultra-creative riff on a martini with tequila, vermouth, green chili liqueur, pear liqueur, and grapefruit oil." - Carrie Hutchinson
