Up until 2008, the Wig and Pen was the only place in Canberra to get locally made brew. Barely off the London Circuit, it still is fairly quiet at the outside tables. Food and beer are bought at the bar. When ordering food, they’ll give you a number for a waiter to find you. Food is wonderful and their beers are extremely well done as proven by the multiple awards they have won in Australia. Down side? As the only brewpub in downtown, it’s difficult to find room inside when the stores shutter at 5/6 in the evening. Hang out, be patient, or just stand so you can rest that weary bottom that’s been in a cubicle chair all day long. Get at least brew from one of the hand-pumps, at least one special, and do try to get to a couple of the main-stays. (Multiple visits?) My preferences? I love English style brews & really enjoy the Aussie take on them.
