I remember the day when Little Creatures first opened, and no one knew about it... you could go there and get a table and have a few pints.. no worries....

Nowadays, every man and his dog knows about the place, its always overflowing and you have to wait hours for a table... bloody shame...

Why is it a bad thing James L? Why not share and be happy that people appreciate a good thing...?

I dont mind the fact that its popular and everyone enjoys it... I just so much different to how it used to be.. you have to wait so long to get a table, get served and get a beer... that's usually why i order two pints of LCPA, grab a hat (to reserve a table), sit outside, watch the world go by and wait for my name to be called....

And if i know it gonna be a while, i can always go to the sail and anchor up the road, taste a few of their home made beers, and come back later.

Popped into the sail the other night for a pint or 3.

The brass monkey stout and the ipa were the stand outs.

The dark wheat beer was interesting but not my cup of tea.

While I welcome the news i can't help but think of the old phrase "Is it the truth or did you read it in the Herald Sun?"

Just been to this bar.

It was good don't get me wrong and i like LCPA and the other beers. But only having 5 beers on tap just isn't enough for me nowa days.

My homebrew varieties and the other new micros around means I want to try lots of different beers.

The LC bar needs a seasonal beer or something just to keep it interesting, in my opinion anyway.

I went on Friday night. Lucky I got in early because it was packed by about 8.
Beer, food and service were all great.....

Cheers,

Tim
