Five reasons to visit Big Ears this Autumn

Their extensive beer list
If you’re an avid beer lover, Big Ears is your new home. With a list of more than 70 beers, ranging from local and imported and always updating, I can guarantee there’s at least a few that you haven’t tried before. They even have two gluten free beers for those of you who thought your beer drinking days were over.

Big ass meatballs (among other things)
Their menu features big ass meatballs, either in a sub, or in pasta, and there’s balls to cater for everyone. Their menu also includes some kick ass nachos and desserts so it’s a win win no matter your taste.

It’s from the makers of Piano Bar so you know it’s going to be freakin awesome.
Located in the old Piano Bar venue, and owned by the legends behind it, Big Ears features live music, brews and balls – all the good things in life.

The art on the wall
The walls feature various works by local legend My Heads A Jungle, who is known for her ink work, and you might have seen her work featured at Piano Bar in the infamous toilet wall used for insta selfies. Her work on Big Ears ‘Trash Wall’ is always changing, with new art being added frequently.

The venue space
Lastly, we had to mention the kick ass venue space, with a curved wall feature, an overall small intimate space with groovy bar tables, and hanging racks up among the trash wall; it’s the new cool place to hang with your friends.

If you need one more reason, they are also doing a Beer Klub (a not-for-profit, community group intended to bring the beer and hospitality community from Geelong, Surf Coast, and the Bellarine together) that simply looks like a guided discussion between beer nerds who want to learn about different beers from around the world. Head to their facebook page to get the deets on that.

Located at 86 Little Malop Street, Big Ears is open Tuesday to Sunday from 11:30am – late. Check out their FB here.
