Craft Beer and Whisky Bar Boilermaker House Is Closing for Good at the End of December
You've got a few more weeks to have a final taste of this CBD gem, before it call last drinks on December 30.
Boilermaker House, a CBD bar dedicated to pairing and celebraiting craft beer and whisky, has recently announced that it will officially close forever on Monday, December 30. The news comes as the building's landlord has opted to redevelop the site and not renew the Speakeasy Group's lease.
The laidback city spot is a unique Melbourne den built around the boilermaker — for the uninitiated, a boilermaker is an American beer cocktail consisting of a shot of whisky and a beer chaser. Ever since it opened in 2015, Boilermaker House has been a go-to spot for city workers, whisky lovers and beer fans alike. Its charcuterie and cheese boards were also no joke — great additions to a long whisky and beer session.
But now, it's time to pack up the 700-plus whisky bottles and say goodbye to Boilermaker House.
Owner and Operator Greg Sanderson shared, "We're incredibly proud of what we've built over these years.
"Parting ways with a place that has meant so much to us — and to so many others — is incredibly difficult. We're deeply grateful to our amazing team, whose passion and dedication have been the heart of Boilermaker House.
"And to our guests, especially those who've been with us since the beginning — we can't thank you enough."
Punters have until the end of December to drop by for one last boilermaker in the CBD haunt or to simply down a few drams and say farewell.
