Hops and Vine
Located on the village's main thoroughfare at 6A Victoria Street, this rustic, highly social boutique craft beer and wine cellar is housed in the beautifully restored, 116-year-old heritage Kinlyside Hall (which previously served as a wheelwright's shop and a dance hall). It features a massive selection of over 200 different local and independent Australian craft beers alongside a curated wall of boutique regional wines that do not have their own cellar doors. Regular weekend tasting events are hosted here, making it a great destination to sample the region's beverage scene in a cozy, historic setting.

Hops and Vine
A small but diverse store that has over 200 different varieties of Australian craft beer, mainly from the ACT and the immediate surrounding areas such as the Yass Valley or the Snowy Mountains. The building that it's located in formerly served as the town's village hall (yep, Hall's hall) and cinema; there are still some occasional workshops and events in what's now the former village hall.
