Forest Explorers Premium Taphouse Tour - Collie's Best-Kept Secret
Think you know Collie? Think again.
Join Forest Explorers on our Premium Taphouse Tour and let us show you the side of this town most visitors never find. We kick off on the 1913 footbridge on Throssell Street, yes, the one that's been holding stories longer than most of us have been alive, before winding through some of the most character-filled heritage buildings in the Southwest.
Along the way, you'll sip locally crafted brews like the Blue Marron Lager 🦞 and Powerhouse Pale Ale ⚓️ (named for Collie's identity as the powerhouse of WA , fitting, don't you think?), nibble on WA cheese at the Collie Providore, and raise a glass at the iconic Vic Hotel, built back in 1898 when Collie was still finding its feet.
But here's the bit that surprises people every single time, beneath the streets you're walking on lies a forgotten story of heritage skills - clay, bricks and pottery. The very buildings you're admiring were built from materials made right here. Collie was never just Coal and Jarrah.
