Pub with No Booze
This Footscray boozer is celebrating the sober side of life with a tasting party dedicated to alcohol-free sips.
Overview
Whether you're currently teetotaling your way through Ocsober, or you're simply in the mood for a party that doesn't revolve around booze, here's a pub sesh to pop on your radar. On Saturday, October 29, Footscray's Victoria Hotel is throwing an alcohol-free fiesta, both in the spirit of inclusivity and in a bid to shake up the image of the classic Aussie pub.
From 2pm, the venue will be reborn as Pub with No Booze, complete with a tasting market pouring non-alcoholic sips from the likes of Heaps Normal, NON, Mondays Distillery, Lyres, Clear Mind and Etch Sparkling.
There'll be close to 100 different products to sample, with all tastings included in your $45 ticket. One of those will also score you a complimentary Heaps Normal beer or a Lyre's cocktail from the bar.
And since no pub visit is complete without a solid feed, you'll catch Josh Murphy — chef and co-owner of nearby Harley and Rose — cooking up a storm on the barbecue all afternoon.
Feeling inspired? Head to Brunswick East, where you'll find Australia's first non-alcoholic and hangover-free bar, Brunswick Aces.
