Good for special occasions
Good for groups

At Malt Shovel, we still remember our first craft beer. A life-changing moment. A world of floral hops. A world of toffee malts. A world of discovery, refreshment and satisfaction. Craft beer was here and things would be the same again.

At Malt Shovel Taphouse Geelong the focus will be on authentic stories and flavours that make craft beer so unique. It will have a changing roster of great beers combined with great people and great food.

It was okay food-wise, but the service was lacking on the day we were there. Overall, it was good, and we would probably go again when in Geelong.
