Locally brewed favourite Furphy has declared it\u2019s their shout for double-jabbed beer lovers as part of a \u2018Vaxxed to the Pub\u2019 initiative in support of hospitality venues.<\/p>\n
Furphy and parent-company Lion announced fully vaccinated Aussies aged 18-plus will be rewarded with a free glass of Furphy when pub and club doors safely reopen.<\/p>\n
Lion managing director James Brindley said the company saw the initiative as a way to boost jabs in arms throughout the country in line with official health advice.<\/p>\n
Fully vaccinated punters who visit participating watering holes can enjoy their first beer on the house.<\/p>\n
Mr Brindley said the call was particularly aimed at city workers to support those venues hit the hardest, and to reconnect over a session of yarn spinning and refreshing ale, down at the local.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re urging our fellow Aussies to roll up their sleeves and get double-jabbed so that we can start to bring much-needed business back to our struggling hospitality sector,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to encourage all Aussies who can to get fully vaccinated.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe can\u2019t wait for the Furphys to flow once more and give some much-needed foot traffic to our hospitality mates.\u201d<\/p>\n
To kick off the initiative, Lion employees located throughout Australia have been offered an afternoon off to spend at the pub when re-opening is safely ticked off by health authorities.<\/p>\n
Lion is hoping other companies to follow suit, if they can, by giving their workforce a \u2018Vaxxed to the Pub\u2019 early mark sometime soon when it\u2019s safe to do so.<\/p>\n
\u201cLion has committed to giving our employees an afternoon at the pub once reopened so that they can share stories and a couple of long overdue cold ones together in person,\u201d Mr Brindley said.<\/p>\n
Furphy will offer a free Furphy Refreshing Ale or Furphy Crisp Lager at participating venues via the Myy App for those who prove that they are fully COVID-19 vaccinated.<\/p>\n
The offer is available from October 1 to December 31, 2021. Find out more and read the T&Cs on the Furphy website.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
