Merivale World Whiskey Day

Overview

As any Irish whiskey lover would know, one day just isn't enough to celebrate the spiritous amber liquor. So the folks behind Merivale's pubs and bars are doing us a solid and extending World Whiskey Day for an entire week and turning all its tap beers into boilermakers for just an additional fiver.

This means alongside your cold beer, you can purchase a $5 shot of Jameson Caskmates IPA Edition — a whiskey finished in craft beer barrels — between Monday, May 13 and Sunday, May 19.

As the Sydney hospitality empire has venues scattered all across the city, there are plenty of places to quench your fire-water thirst. If you're by the waterside, step into The Newport or Coogee Pavilion. In the inner west? Head into The Vic on the Park, The Queens Hotel or Mascot's Tennyson Hotel. In the east, you've got speakeasy Charlie Parker's, The Beresford or inside Oxford Street's trendy hub, The Paddington.

If you're wanting a post-work beer with an added kick, your CBD options are almost endless with York 75, Hotel CBD, The Royal George, Palings Kitchen and Bar, various bars in The Establishment, the Angel Hotel, The Grand Hotel, Palmer & Co and The Wynyard all offering the beer and whiskey combo. And if you're feeling a bit peckish, you can grab or a slice of pizza at Pool Club or some Mexican tacos at El Loco at The Slip Inn or El Loco at Excelsior to complement your boilermaker.

Merivale's World Whiskey Day promotion runs from Monday, May 13–Sunday, May 19. For more info, visit the website.
