Fourex Gold
This is the front of the Castlemaine Fourex brewery building in Milton. Probably Brisbane's most famous building as its image is printed on the cans of beer that get exported around the world. In Australia, the mid-strength beer that they brew is called Fourex Gold and is a huge success across Australia despite its enigmatic flavour.

I'd have picked this building for a bank. Beer huh. well perhaps a little safer than banks these days.
That's funny, I took a photo of the top of the building with the XXXX and the flag flying just yesterday!! You'll probably catch it on my MY WORLD post on Tuesday! Great photo, Cara.
From the portal, I took this to be a photo of a railway track ... The lines are very strong and the entire thing looks great in sepia ... I know nowt about beer ... but like the idea of it being enigmatic ...
