Ever since the first settlers arrived with a penchant for rum, pubs have been a vital part of Australian culture. Places to nibble Nobby s nuts and swear at the footy; watering holes to swap stories and whack a coin on the pool table.
But what is it that makes an Aussie pub uniquely Aussie ? What makes it proper ? For many punters, a few taps and a TAB room are all that s needed. For others, just the beer, thanks, and somewhere outdoors to drink it. In my opinion, a great beer garden is essential for any proper Aussie pub, says Jenna Phillips, licensee of The Oxford Tavern in Petersham, Sydney.
