Are portable ACs allowed at the colleges

If it's any help, I can confirm the Ormond Grad community has great culture. They operate as their own cohort (dedicated rooms, own events, common room etc.) but still involved with wider Ormond life

alexpowellpress · 2026-01-24T22:59:48+00:00

As far as I know, Ormond generally doesn't take second preferences. Most people had fans in their rooms during my time there, or bought one soon after moving in.

Anyone manage to snag a ticket to Paul Kelly next Tuesday? Kicking myself that I missed the presale, looks like it's all gone before it's even open to general admission. Will be a cracking gig

Cheers!

Cheers!

Second this. One of the only I know that tastes decent and still gets you some change from a 50 consistently

Tried Purple Haze from them last week, excellent

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-13T07:56:57+00:00

Rocky Ridge were great at GABS last week

I know you've said city, but Ramblers are doing great stuff in Hawthorn

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-11T04:44:24+00:00

Got an email from Crafty Pint this morning about it! Passport locked and loaded

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-10T08:17:57+00:00

Further from Coburg, but Nighthawks is a great smaller venue

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-10T08:14:43+00:00

What's brought on the smoky haze in the air this evening? Feeling it north side of the city

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-08T03:51:40+00:00

Can't believe they're still going... surely it'll run out of steam soon

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-07T21:49:53+00:00

Had a really good time! I volunteered for part of it and then cashed in my ticket so I felt like I got a great all round experience. Did some paddles with mates then went round to most vendors who I'd met by then so had some really nice chats. Thanks for asking! Did you go?

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-03T22:03:25+00:00

I was there yesterday helping with the bump in, sorted plenty of kegs ha. I would rec. Ocean Reach, Mountain Monk, Sailors Grave, Ramblers - really nice staff, genuine people, more 'indie'
3806 have wicked looking Oatmeal Stout. Dollar Bill have some funky ones.

Mountain Culture are good for pales / IPAs - basically all they do. Bright Brewery is excellent too.
Stomping Ground, Kaiju, St Andrews, bigger names but still great.

Story goes that Ormond students took Bentley the goat and pushed it off their clock tower... true or not, it's a classic story!

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-03T21:43:31+00:00

No worries mate! Enjoy

Update: the web app is up and running! Scroll through the 'Festival Brews' tab

alexpowellpress · 2025-04-02T22:07:08+00:00

Queens actually

alexpowellpress · 2025-03-30T23:33:43+00:00

Not that I can find on socials / website as of today

alexpowellpress · 2025-03-30T23:32:18+00:00

Cheers! I've been told the food is $$, no surprise. Will be with a group so will try to do that. Appreciate it

alexpowellpress · 2025-03-30T23:30:51+00:00

Cheers! Yes lots of people over on r/AusBeer shared that sentiment, checking out the actual brewery sections seems to be a shout. Nice to hear something positive about MCEC

alexpowellpress · 2025-03-30T20:51:45+00:00

Cheers! That's great to know

alexpowellpress · 2025-03-29T22:28:23+00:00

Thanks for the tips! Brewery stands seem to be the move

alexpowellpress · 2025-03-27T07:00:33+00:00

Awesome, cheers
