fundraiser here, if it wasnt all the way in st kilda and i wasnt playing cricket that night i'd go.
As a result of the tragic events in the Victorian bushfires, The Local Taphouse is hosting a fundraising Benefit Gig on Thursday Feb 19th. 50% of all money raised will be donated to the official Red Cross Appeal and their efforts to help those devastated by these fires.
One of Victoria’s best microbreweries, Hargreaves Hill Brewery, was also completely destroyed by fire so we have decided to donate the other 50% to Simon and Beth Walkenhorst to help a little with their rebuilding.
Thanks to Little Creatures, Matilda Bay, James Squire and Coopers for their kind donation of a keg each for the evening. These donated beers, along with Hargreaves Hill’s exquisite ESB, will be the only beers served on the night. Thanks also to Beermasons for offering mixed packs for a raffle we intend to have.
If you would like to help in ANY way, please let us know.
When: Thursday 19th Feb
Where: The Local Taphouse, 184 Carlisle Street, East St Kilda
Time: From 6pm
Cost: $10 on the door (The Local Taphouse will donate $1000 plus door take & other donations we receive in kind or in cash)
Featuring: Live music (The Band Who Knew Too Much), standup comedy and great beer...
We are limited to only 150 people so it’ll be first in, best dressed. If you can’t attend but would like to help us help Hargreaves Hill Brewery, you can donate to our efforts via our PayPal account at
www.thelocaltaphouse.blogspot.com/. 100% of funds raised via the Paypal account will be donated to Hargreaves Hill Brewery.
