Shebeen Bar

Shebeen is a nonprofit bar that has opened on the site of the former Manchester Lane jazz club.

What is a Shebeen? prohibited. a social pillar. a rendezvous for outcasts, boozers, the rich of life, the poor of opportunity. mama's home-brewed firewater. beautiful music. kings and queens. exotic brews. life-changing projects. a brand new sustainable enterprise. a new melbourne bar. a place to drink to the future. and help others whilst doing so. opening soon(ish).

Shebeen is a non-profit bar. It's really very simple. Exotic beers and wines from the developing world are sold at Shebeen. Profits from each drink sale support a development project in that drink's country of origin.

So, buying an Ethiopian beer provides agricultural equipment to a rural farmer and Ethiopia. Buying a South African wine provides a book to a child in South Africa.

But brace yourself, here's the bad news: Shebeen isn't open YET. But will will be very soon...
