I came across this feed today. Interesting! "Beer and ale are regarded as more or less synonymous in the modern world, but they are very different things in Elizabethan times. Beer is made from malt barley, water and hops and keeps well -- and the longer you keep it before it goes stale, the...

You may have come across this before, but here's a top-10 list of beer facts according to the American Live Science website: http://www.livescience.com/13288-intoxicat...cts-health.html

Quote lifted from the Qantas website regarding "dangerous goods"; specifically alcohol: Alcoholic beverages, when in retail packagings, containing more than 24% but not more than 70% alcohol by volume, in receptacles not exceeding 5L, with a total net quantity per person of 5L. Yes Yes Yes...

I thought only Victorians thought like this. Sure it's sad to see any industry close in your state, but SA and Tassie have a lot to offer. Try it - you might be pleasantly surprised. :D

The problem with this post is that I refuse to read anything that has been slovenly written (lower case I, ), despite the fact that at first glance it could be interesting. No capitalisation, apostrophes ... Maybe I'm just too old. Or perhaps too much Friday night gemutlichkeit.

Ah, what the hell. We all know that home brew tastes SO much better than that other stuff. But sometimes the missus makes us go to the pub (because she wants to play the pokies). So while we're there we drink megaswill. And enjoy it - because while we're drinking it we're talking bullshit with...

I watched 30 seconds, and killed it before I barfed :angry: . Typical loud-mouth Yank ("Best beer on the face of planet Earth" - how does he know? Has he tested every beer on the planet?)

'Course, you blokes could all try moving to Adelaide ... no fruit flies here. God doesn't allow these pesky critters in his country. :D

I'd be interested, depending on the format. <_<

Funny that no one has commented on that most rare of occurrences yet - a Victorian pub selling SA beer! :lol:

Who says that? No locals that I've ever heard. Only patronising eastern-staters in my experience. "Oh Adelaide? not a bad little place. Pity about the water, though." Adelaide has had top-quality water for many, many years - ever since effective water filtration was installed. I've been all...

Yes, it's ironic that a post about data and statistics should have such a glaring mistake! Your ranges should have been, e.g.: < 1 year 1-2 years 3-4 years 5-6 years etc.

If you're into dark beers and enjoy the taste of malt, get a Tuohey's Special Dark Ale kit and add 100g of dark malt to it (available from your home brew shop). Also, I always add 250g dried corn syrup to every kit I brew (dark or amber). It gives it a lovely, long-lasting head. The AG guys on...

But there are always the killjoys: <_< http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg2042...=mg20427303.500

And it's on in Adelaide as well ... German Club, 223 Flinders Street :beerbang: http://www.saadv.com.au/
