Howler

Burgers, Bands and an amazing beer garden in Brunswick.

Howler, a converted woolshed designed by Chris Stanley from the Splinter Society, unfolds onto an incredible open space, which funnels into a more intimate bar. Manned by cocktail guru Chris Lemelu, Howler’s bar boasts one of the nation’s most eclectic beer lists. On offer are beers such as Japan’s immaculately weird Hitachino Nest and delicious oddities from America’s beardy north.

There’s a dedicated performance space outback, with a pretty rad lineup of local indie acts, electronic oddness, and noisy art bands from the world over. Out front, you’ll luxuriate under one of Melbourne’s most banging sound systems with a lineup of DJs who know how to use it.
