Default Dan Murphy's, Albany Creek

There are a few bottles left - new Dan Murphy's bottle supermarket, Albany Creek, North Brisbane.
Very good range of UK beer, Guinness, Leffe, 1664, Holsten, Magners Irish Cider, Scrumpy Jack...... The bloke is crying into what's left of his wallet, and I need a bigger fridge
Some good wines there too. Well worth a trip

Yep, Magners, $5.69 a bottle (as opposed to $10 in the bar at Chermside (where they try to serve it diluted with ice!!)
Dan Murphys is on the left as you go down Albany Creek Road towards South Pine Rd.

Nice checkout lady said "OOh you'll enjoy trying all those new drinks, won't you", Looked rather confused when I said they were old friends and I'm glad to be reunited with them

In my opinion the best bottle'o chain in Bris!

It was a hidden gem when they only had 1 shop in Bris at Middle Park but they have now expanded and all now get the treats. The new one at the GABBA is huge with a vast array of wines and beers at good prices.

Or $12 a bottle in the Irish Bar in the Queen St Mall
I've had one bottle since arriving here at that price and savoured every drop. Once I get to Dan Murphy's I'll be

Didn't look at many of the prices...The Bloke made the rash statement that he would pay on his credit card, so I just shopped till the trolley was full

Bed, Shmed. Who needs a comfy bed to sleep in - when you have had a few you'll sleep like a baby anyway!
