The Grounds of Alexandria Is Brewing Craft Beer with The Lord Nelson
'The Lord of The Grounds Brown' pairs a bold American brown ale with The Grounds' signature, in-house roasted espresso.
The Grounds of Alexandria has proven a coffee haven for Sydneysiders for five years and now they're breaking into the craft brew game. The beer, a collaboration with the longstanding Lord Nelson Brewery, pairs a bold American brown ale with The Grounds' signature, in-house roasted espresso.
'The Lord of The Grounds Brown' is quite the mouthful in name and in drinking practice — unlike some coffee-beer pairings, this is not simply a coffee-flavoured brew. Instead, a mug of the brown ale, with its rich malt flavour, pine hop aroma and slight bitterness, is served alongside a smooth shot of espresso ($13 for the two). This is truly a collab for both beer and coffee lovers — which, more often than not, are already one in the same.
The brew is currently on offer, exclusively at The Potting Shed for the duration of winter, along with share plates, snacks, a full bar menu and regular live music, all in The Grounds' expertly overgrown garden setting.
The Potting Shed at The Grounds of Alexandria is located at 41/43 Bourke Rd, Alexandria. Open Monday through Friday 11.30am to late and Saturday through Sunday from 11am to late.
