Beer Baron [of] Bowral.. lol. Yep. We stocked up on extra beer, cider and mead for the end of year. Hopefully no one will buy any and I can #drinktheprofits 😀@stockadebrewco @pigsflybeer #pigsflybeer @endeavourbeer @applethiefcider (at Ten Thousand Paces)

Just realised we've been posting lots of wine stuff. Time of year I guess!! But. Half of our shop is devoted to local artists creating the most amazing work. Our current show is a group of artists whose work has really spoken to me in the last year. #regionalarts @kerrybruce_art @raewyncarboni @leanneboothart (at Ten Thousand Paces)

Wowsers! Is this the most expensive beer in the world? Just arrived. Old Money by @stockadebrewco its aged for two years in whiskey barrels and only two barrels are released every year. We're one of a handful of enthusiasts given stock. Literally only 16x bottles though. Limit of 2x per customer. #oldmoney call us to reserve stock 0428294569 (at Ten Thousand Paces)

So.. a little while back I started asking around for local breweries south of sydney. We've found a few absolute gems of hoppy goodness. Excited to announce we're now stocking @flipside_brewing at our regional wine hub alongside the local wines ciders etc! Brilliant pale ale is the first of their bottled options. Great stuff! #craftbeer #craftbrew #southernhighlandsnsw #drinkingtheprofits #localshopping #specialistbeers (at Ten Thousand Paces)

can't quite think of a caption for this.. "stairway to heaven"? The new gym? Thoughts? (And yes, I really should be putting it on the shelf not mucking around!!) @stockadebrewco is delicious! #drinkingtheprofits #localshopping #localbeer #craftbeer #southernhighlandsnsw (at Ten Thousand Paces)

So.. we're running a market stall with local wine and stuff in hampers. I totally forgot to organize a second eftpos machine so was scrambling around trying to find an option. Bingo! This little square thing from @square plugs into your phone and hey presto you can take card payments!! Brilliant! #eftpos #square (at Bong Bong Racecourse)

WhooHoo! After lots of chats with @joadjadistillery we're the sole stockists of their Joadja Wee Heavy Ale. Also got their Pedro Ximenez "sherry". The whiskey is happily ageing in the casks and will be another 18months before very limited release. #weeheavy #weeheavyale #joadjadistillery #drinkingtheprofits (at Ten Thousand Paces)

So excited to have a genuine mead in store! It's made about 5000paces from the gallery and of course is delicious! Local bees, water and wild yeast. Nothing else. #mead #winesustralia #regionalwines #localshelpinglocals (at Ten Thousand Paces)
