BREWMANITY AT BEER DELUXE
12027623_1008317929220804_8231679147837996986_n
David Neitz, ex Melbourne Footballer has started a new philanthropic beer – Brewmanity. Sales from the beer goes towards raising money on an ongoing basis for clean drinking water in poverty stricken countries. The entire concept of Brewmanity is based on the notion of water, turning into beer, turning back into water for those in need.
David has worked closely with Beer DeLuxe founder, Craig Shearer to create the brew and Beer DeLuxe will be the first venue in Melbourne to have the beer on tap. Craig has mentored David throughout the brewing process, educating him on the ins and outs of making a smooth and seasonable pale ale from scratch. Beer DeLuxe will also be holding ‘Brewmanity Hour’ on 23 October, with all of the funds raised from the sale of the beer going towards Freeze MND, David’s old football coach, Neal Daniher’s own charity.

LOVE&DYSFUNCTION OPENS IN ST KILDA
Love&Dysfunction_1

Grey Street’s newest resident, Love&Dysfunction, brings fine drinking without the pretence to Melbourne’s bayside precinct. London-born owner Reg Ridealgh serves vintage cocktails with a twist in a laid back environment flooded with electro swing and 1920’s vibes. Designed to graze and share,

Love&Dysfunction’s food draws on a range of influences; from French-inspired terrines and pates to the salty nibbles of Tokyo’s izakayas. Love&Dysfunction’s craft cocktails and wide range of top shelf spirits are served in classic style in vintage glassware. Signatures include Vieux Carre Cocktail, Bloody and Sandy and the classic Southside – aptly picked for Love&Dysfunction’s location. “The list is a homage to the birth and golden age of cocktails,” says Ridealgh.

The entire front bar draws on its quintessential St Kilda vintage – with retro phones and cut glass decanters complementing ornate led lit windows and the building’s early 20th Century heritage. Work your way through this dimly lit, prohibition-style bar to find relaxed chesterfield couches against an Art Deco inspired mural. An intimate list of predominantly Victorian craft beers and wine can also be enjoyed in the bar’s leafy courtyard space.

Love&Dysfunction’s temperament might be laid back but Sunday sessions will be serious business; with BBQ smokers and food trucks taking residency beside the beer garden. “We are all about putting the easy in speakeasy,” says Ridealgh.
