Tathra Hotel Monthly News Letter - august 2025
A COLD WINTER!
Greetings from Perisher where we are having a cold, snowy winter for our last season at the Sundeck. After thirty five seasons for Cliff and twenty for Sayaka we have sold the hotel to a family who have often stayed with us. As I write this snow is falling and the hotel is full of guests enjoying excellent conditions.
THEATRE
Chris Briggs and his team are making great progress. The internal scaffolding has finally come down and the fit out is well underway.
KITCHEN

"Where in the World" this month will feature Indonesian cuisine on Wednesday August 6.

BREWERY
NEW BEER ON TAP
Simon and his team are kept busy in winter brewing for the Sundeck. They have recently brewed a Dunkleweizen (Dark Wheat Beer). Simon says: "Appearances can be deceiving and this wheat beer is no exception. Although dark in colour there are no harsh roasted notes typically associated with dark beers, instead, light balanced banana and clove notes give way to lightly toasted bread and rich caramel aromas supported by the softness of wheat. Despite being rich this ale is also extremely refreshing. The perfect accompaniment to any crisp and cool day. "
Following their recent canning run our beers are now also available in a number of bottleshops and restaurants in the shire.
ACCOMMODATION
We now have 24 rooms available.
Best wishes,
Cliff and Sayaka
