Hop Vine & Still

Murray Street runs through the middle of Hobart's CBD, and among its bars and diners sits a narrow specialist bottle shop built around craft beer, fine wine and small-batch spirits. The range leans heavily on Tasmanian producers and other small-batch makers rather than the mainstream labels that dominate the big chains, and staff are known for steering customers toward something specific rather than just ringing up a sale. It has picked up local recognition as one of Hobart's better bottle shops, the kind of place regulars use for a considered bottle before dinner rather than a bulk supermarket run. Open seven days, with extended hours midweek through Saturday and a shorter Sunday session. For visitors staying in the city centre, it is a walkable option for tracking down a Tasmanian drop worth taking home.
