Carlton is known for its poky little places. There are hundreds of small pizza joints with very large men spruiking them, there are great cafes down tight laneways — but people don't talk much about its big sprawling pubs. The Great Northern is a pub for pub-lovers — the ones who like to watch the footy and really know their beers. Boasting 22 taps with a regular rotation of craft beers including Mountain Goat, 2 Brothers, Stone & Wood, and a selection from the ever-present Brooklyn Brewery, this is definitely the place to go for a pint.
