Melbourne’s own Stomping Ground Brewing Co has today launched a campaign to get 5,000 Melburnians back to their favourite pub or bar from June 1 and shout them a long awaited, precious first beer.
Named the Stomping Ground 5K, the campaign will see up to 50 of our city’s best venues, including Neighbourhood Wine, Old Palm Liquor, Mt Erica Hotel, and Bar Romantica to offer customers their first Stomping Ground beer on the house.
The Marquis of Lorne hotel in Fitzroy is one of those supporting venues that will be happily reopening their doors to punters. Owner Will Benjamin said, “It’s been a really challenging time for all pubs and bars throughout Australia, and we couldn’t be more excited to be opening our doors again on Monday 1 June. When we heard that Stomping Ground was keen to work with us to shout 5,000 Melburnians their first beer, we jumped on board to be part of it, to thank all our loyal customers who have supported us over the last weeks. That first beer on Monday is going to be one to remember!”
Guy Greenstone, co-founder of Stomping Ground Brewing Co said, “Melbourne’s hospitality industry is an integral part of what makes our city one of the best places to live in the world. We know how much the industry is struggling right now, but also how much Melburnians are looking forward to that very first beer back at the pub. So, we wanted to facilitate this by shouting 5,000 Melburnians their first drink and supporting 50 of the best pubs and bars in Melbourne to get back up and running. I know that first sip will be one I will savour for a long time.”
To join the Stomping Ground 5K, Melbourne residents should race to register their details at the Stomping Ground website.
So limber up and get ready Melbourne to join in the Stomping Ground 5K!
