Tonight’s ferry trip was not Terry’s first rodeo. A long time insular peninsula dweller and workmate of #1 and #3, plenty of froth has been blown off more than a couple over the years with this bloke. The #worldsbestcommute threw …

Induction – Bek #127
We love a induction ceremony that involves more than one person. Bek enjoyed a wonderful trip with her flatmates. Having grown up in the Blue Mountains, a ferry trip is an infrequent experience. The harbour turned it on and there …
Induction – Maddy #126
Another round of inductions from the next generation of Back of the Ferry members. We especially love introducing the delights of the ferry to people from outside the insular peninsula. Maddy was very lucky to have the event documented from …
Induction – Kristy #123
Kristy is the first of a trio of inductions that were the first to be performed since the world turned upside down. The Back of the Ferry is a perfect COVID19 safe mode of transport with plenty of outdoor space …
Induction – Lawrence #123

So as promised, here are the T-shirts we’ll be making to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Australia’s longest running, somewhat informative and definitely frivolous beer blog. The shirt has two emphasises: Where the action happens – The Back of the …
Induction – Rols #36
Rols was actually inducted way back in December 2014. In an embarrassing slip up by your correspondent the induction details slipped down the back of my virtual couch. It was not until Rols pointed out that he never saw his …
Induction – Lance #106
I don’t get to see my brother-in-law very much, as Lance rarely ventures to Australia and I don’t get to New Zealand that often either. But when we do it is always worthwhile. Lance loves his beer and his sport. …
Induction – Peter #104
Our latest inductee caught the Manly Ferry for the express purpose of providing samples of Irish Craft Beer for illiards and me to try. After 10 minutes of chat, we worked out a number of mutual friends, experiences and favoured …
