I keep coming back to the Mudgee Brewing Company to have a listen to the many different music acts…read morethat are presented each and every week. Sometimes we just pop in for a quick bite and beer, and other times something more substantial. The service is invariably welcoming, friendly and efficient, so we don't feel rushed or pressured to spend up big. They also offer free WiFi, and can cater for the bigger groups looking for a get-together in Mudgee.

Nice, big beer hall, where the Mudgee Brewing Company sells its fine ales…read more Didn't try the food, but some very helpful ladies behind the bar set me up with a delicious tasting rack, so I could sample wach brew. They have a roating cast of seasonal ales as well. You can sit inside under the big roof and amongst the beer vats, or at tables on the pavement in front or in the small paved side courtyard. Staff were super-friendly. It was the sort of place that had a hen do and a wine-tasting coach tour having lunch when I visited. It's a big place, with big crowds and big taste.

Well ..... This little Joey D break finds another hidden gem just past the Mountains. This brewery…read morewas fully functional about a hundred years ago ..... but then things slowly changed and it just went to ruin by the strains of time. In recent years a brave and determined team have slowly been working on making this once what it was ...... a great Brewery .... using all local produce, labor and talent. I arrived here using Google map references ...... it was mid week .... mid afternoon ..... never really expecting to try any beers at all ....... what happened made my day ....... a generous guy gave me a personal tour ....... it was quick but was fun as we saw old fashioned machinery mixed with modern bits and pieces. Beer tasting would have pushed this very new friendship over the edge ..... instead I opted to buy a mixed dozen of their current brews ....... I couldn't stop smiling ..... Joey D ...... very happy !! Weekends would be highly recommended ...... and a side note ..... extensions to outside areas ...... new eatery and new accommodation are on the drawing board ..... coming soon ...... and very much something to look forward to. I can't wait to come back and see how things have changed !!
