This episode is a recording of an interesting one on one chat I had up in Brisbane last month for Paramount Liquor’s Future Proof event — I spoke with bartender and owner of the soon to open Sydney bar, The Waratah, Evan Stroeve. Evan’s a guy with a great resume, he’s worked at Shady Pines Saloon and The Baxter Inn, ran the show at the much-missed Bulletin Place, and was on the opening crew at Sydney bar Re. He’s been heavily involved in issues around sustainability and in addition to crafting delicious drinks, he’s also a deep thinker on all things bar and hospitality.
