The ROYAL TOUR
There are 161 Royal Hotels in Australia and Scott plans on visiting them all!
Stay tuned for stories and photos of his travels!
January 1 – 2017.
Well the Royal Tour has begun. 12:01am – New Years eve, and a schooner of VB was consumed and enjoyed at the ROYAL HOTEL BUNGENDORE. I had a selfie taken enjoying the drop, but because our New Years party was camo, you cant see me, or anyone for that matter!
March 27 – 2017
The second Royal on the tour was the ROYAL HOTEL QUEANBEYAN. It’s not far from home, but the road trip continues. Had a schooner of Great Northern, had the car so had to drive, but it was a nice tasting beer.
May 11 – 2017
A middy of VB at the ROYAL HOTEL COOMA. Nice drop, got lonely so only had 1. Maybe I stunk, but there was no one else around??
June 6 – 2017
On the way back from Young, I thought I would visit a few of the Royals on the way home. The ROYAL HOTEL HARDEN was all boarded up and has been closed for some years!. Next I thought I’d try a cold one at the ROYAL HOTEL GALONG. Wrong again – the pub is now a family house. No beer could be bought here either!
Cranky and thirsty – the ROYAL HOTEL YASS was my saviour. The VB was good, the schooner went down a little too fast, so I had another!
January 5th – 2018
The Royal Tour slowed a fair bit in the latter part of the year. There are not too many ROYALS around the Hunter Valley that I could track down, so when the Royal Cricket Team went to Sydney for the Ashes Test, the ROYAL HOTEL RANDWICK was a must!
With Tommy Raudonikis in the smoking area, Scratcher in the keno lounge and Bretto having a slap, I had a Carlton Draught or two. It was good, so I had one more! Had to prove that I was here, then I had another!
