Mandy Nolan’s Soapbox: Nicessism Disorder

I have a disorder that is incompatible with living a comfortable life in the current system. Unfortunately it’s becoming less common, but there are people living in your street who will have it. Maybe even your friends, or someone in your family. Maybe you. It’s my deep shame. It’s why I will never be rich and successful. But probably why I am so deeply happy and why I am so full of love and care for other humans.

Having swung the doors open in January 2022, Common People Brewing Co in Bangalow has quickly become a home away from home for many.

The brewery, and the friendly, local faces behind it, offer a range of seriously tasty beers. There are four that are always on offer: Protesters IPA, Villager’s Pale Ale, Back Beach White Ale and Helles Hole Lager, plus there’s always something new from their constantly changing selection of seasonal special batch brews. There’s a new wine list for summer too!

If you’re peckish, The Brewer’s Kitchen is there to satisfy your tastebuds with wood-fired pizzas, salads, sharing plates and kids’ meals.

Common People Brewing Co are celebrating their first birthday this weekend and you might find a special birthday flyer offer in this week’s Echo.

Walk-ins are encouraged and bookings are welcome via www.commonpeoplebrewing.com.au

Open Thurs–Sat 12pm–9pm and Sunday 12pm–8pm.
9 Dudgeons Lane, Bangalow.
