If you were hoping to hear some great live music in Castlemaine TONIGHT, you’re in luck, and it's FREE!

We have a ROCK SHOW for ya.

White Summer emerged from the Melbourne rock scene with a sound built on raw emotion, melodic weight, and lo-fi intensity.
Their debut album Soul Breaker (produced by Burke Reid) led to national touring, sold-out shows, support slots with Kingswood, Ash Grunwald and British India, and placements on Shameless (Netflix).

Back from a long break, White Summer are back on the road and bringing the rock back to the Taproom for one massive show.

FREE ENTRY - 8PM

Call out for local billets to house our amazing band members heading to Castlemaine this Friday.

Unfortunately the accommodation we had secured for them has fallen through so we’re looking for people who love live music and either have a house available for the night, or have a room or two spare.

Bands are rarely paid enough to fork out for hotel / motel accommodation. We pay & cater for our bands but as this is a free gig, we can’t afford to pay for their accommodation either!

Hoping there might be some generous locals who can help. This is a great bunch of blokes who will put on a great show and will be very grateful for a place to sleep.

It may be a tad grey out there, but it's a FATHER'S DAY FOR IT!!

Give us a call or go to the website to book in advance, so we can treat your Father right, with cold beer, hot food and some live music from 5pm.

Cheers from these hot Dad guys.

Do you have a handsome Dad who loves a beer like our boys Sam and Alex here?

Treat them this Father's Day Sunday to a slap-up feed, a cold beer, and some live music from Kier Stevens at The Tappy at The Mill Castlemaine.

BOOKINGS are essential, so please book in advance to avoid disappointment. Call us on 0487 860 060.

If you're a terrible child and need a last-minute gift, then we have plenty of takeaway beer packs, shirts, hoodies, hats, bottle openers, bar runners, and even a photo book about Aussie music. Dad stuff!

Also, onsale is a new beer. Brewed for the 2026 edition of Bendigo on the Hop, our Birthday Cake Oat Cream DDH Double IPA was designed to be a big stupid party in a glass. Best served with sprinkles on top, it is a hop-fest with a slash of vanilla to bring back memories (past or recent) of a kid’s birthday cake.

Makes sense, as Shedshaker Brewing turned 10 this year so this is our idea of a birthday cake! Kicking in at 7.6%abv, it is a big, juicy, hazy and yes, deeply silly beer. Which is why we love it. Grab one now at the Taproom (only one keg remains) or grab some cans from good bottle shops and pour yourself a party in a glass. With sprinkles on top.
