So we walked, and walked, and walked. After I had aged many decades we finally reached the end of our quest. Ten minuets late, but bang on time for the start of the tour. The brewery was really cool with a minimalist but homey feel about the small production line and the bar area.
We learnt about the history of the brewery and about how beer is made. Which highlighted to me several things Toby and I were doing wrong and why ours always came out ridiculously strong or dreadful to taste!
After the tour we had a few bottles of beer, which we later found out we were not meant to drink on site, and a laugh. It was really good to catch up with Rich and Jen again. I hope I meet them again in New Zealand.
On the way back to town we decided we should take the tram back as we may have missed the following Christmas if we walked back. Unfortunately Australia has this stupid system where you cannot buy tickets on trams and busses but have to have a pre pay card. We had only one of these between the three of us, and that was empty! We then decided to be rebles and hop on a tram anyway.
Then things got exciting again. As we were at a stop I noticed a car was being a little cheeky and was sitting on the tram lines trying to turn right in front of us. Surley the tram driver saw him?
Nope.
We ploughed straight into the side of the car, respect to the tram as it felt like a little bump in the road. The car however had been caved in at the side and stripped of its wingmirror. It turned out that I was the only person who had seen the whole situation unfold. However, I had to decline being a witness or issuing a statement and all got off quickly at the next stop as obviously we were traveling illegally.
