Dr Schwartz Pils

There's been a pub on the corner of Goulburn & Wentworth Streets in the dag-end of the city since 1888, and it's been called the Macquarie Hotel since 1908. I bet the old codgers in the front bar from back in those days would guffaw into their froth to know that it is now called the Macquare Boutique Hotel. Oh dear, Lady Muck, do excuse me for breathing.
