The Story:

History and drinking have always gone hand-in-hand in Sydney and The Rocks is where it all began.While some convicts brewed beer in secret, their jailers rolled in rum by the shipload. With 65 000 litres arriving on the First Fleet alone! In the fledgling, port-side convict colony, it wasn’t long before hard liquor became standard currency and no good story started without it.

Welcome back to that time!

Pub by pub – we’ll dig up the stories behind Sydney’s spirited heritage. We’ll learn of its ruffians and we’ll uncover their despicable deeds. Part tour and part sunset swagger, this unique adventure will bring to life the notorious history and debaucherous tales behind the sailors, soldiers, convicts, cut-throats and larrikins who would do anything for a drop of the good stuff.
