Old Canberra Inn

Australian Capital Territory, Australia

The Old Canberra Inn is one of the earliest licensed pubs in the Canberra region, Australia. The building pre-dates the city itself. It is located in the present-day suburb of Lyneham. The original slab hut was built in 1857 by Joseph Schumack and in 1876 it was licensed as an inn. It was a coach stop on the Yass to Queanbeyan run until 1887 when it was sold to John Read. It became the Read family home until 1974, called The Pines until it was renovated and relicensed as the Old Canberra Inn. The Old Canberra Inn is well known for its craft beers, with their 10 beer taps exclusively serving Australian independent craft beer.
