The winners of the Real Melbourne Iso Awards

A couple of weeks back, we reported on an intiative called the Real Melbourne Iso Awards from a bunch of Melbourne bar peeps to buoy the spirits of the Melbourne bar community during lockdown. It also helped raise much needed funds for COVID-19 EAD, which is busy pumping out free meals and care packs for unemployed Melbourne hospo folks.

Hats off to the committee members for a great event: Trish Brew – Fever Tree, Henery Hammersla – Applewood /Okar, Serekha Krishnan – Gin Palace, Jimmy Snelgrove – MR Black, Sasha Nourse – BDL, Derek Senseney – BDL, Hamish Goonetilleke – Rum Diary Spiced, Daniel Monk – Rum Diary Spiced & Zac Matassoni.
