Go through this list from one of my local pubs and I reckon you'll find one.
Over 70 Victorian beers available.
Melbournes changing faster than ever.... as so are it's tastes.

.I have now realised the error of my ways, and renewed my allegiance to Aussie 'lager'.
James Squire Golden Ale has had a few mentions - will try that next.
Ended up getting Carlton Draught as no JSGA in stock; too gassy for me, but it has the desired effect, particularly when followed by port.
You know you are getting old when you start drinking port

Get yourself one of those 5 litre limited edition casks of Little Creatures Pale Ale. Can't get better than that !

Re: Any local beer close to Boddies?
Sorry. But yuck. Agree with the VB comment but little creatures is still not a patch on good beer and you need a mortgage to spend a night there. Squires, well I have sent better over the porcelain
