Every July, thousands of Australians take part in Dry July; a fantastic initiative that encourages people to go alcohol-free while raising money for people affected by cancer.
At Hang 10 Distillery, we love seeing people prioritise their health and supporting such an important cause. But if you're taking a break from alcohol this month, there's still plenty of ways you can support your favourite local distillery and brewery.
Here's how you can help us through Dry July - without ordering a gin!
1. Visit Us for a Non-Alcoholic Drink & Bite to Eat
Just because you're skipping alcohol doesn't mean you have to skip catching up with friends.
We've put together a great range of alcohol-free options so you can still enjoy the Hang 10 atmosphere:
- Non-alcoholic beer
- Non-alcoholic Gin & Tonic
- House-made mocktails (including a brand-new winter special coming this week!)
- Soft drinks and premium mixers from Fever-Tree Australia
Pair your drink with a freshly cooked pizza or share plates and enjoy an afternoon or evening out - no alcohol required!
2. Grab Some Hang 10 Merch
Love the brand? Wear it!
Our range of Hang 10 merchandise includes cosy sweaters, beanies, caps and tees inspired by surf culture, sustainability and good times.
Every purchase helps support our small business while letting you take a little piece of Hang 10 home.
3. Leave Us a Google Review
If you've visited us before, one of the biggest ways you can help is by leaving a Google review.
It only takes a couple of minutes, but reviews help new customers discover us and give other people confidence to visit. As a small independent business, every review genuinely makes a difference.
If you've enjoyed our drinks, pizzas, live music, brewery or friendly team, we'd love to hear about it.
4. Tell Your Friends
Word of mouth is still one of the most powerful ways small businesses grow.
If you've had a great experience at Hang 10 Distillery, tell your friends, family or workmates about us. Recommend us for their next catch-up, date night, birthday, or weekend outing on Sydney's Northern Beaches.
A simple recommendation like sharing our instagram can introduce someone new to our little distillery, and that means the world to us!
Supporting Small Businesses During Dry July
Dry July is about making positive choices, and supporting local businesses can be part of that too.
Whether you stop in for a mocktail, enjoy a pizza with friends, pick up some merch, or simply leave us a review, you're helping independent Australian businesses continue doing what they love.
From all of us at Hang 10 Distillery and Half Pace Brewing Company, thank you for your support, this month and every month.
We'll have plenty of alcohol-free options waiting for you throughout Dry July, so come and say hello!
