    Well there's your problem, too much carp. They'll clog things every time.

    James Squire Pale Ale - New Beer

    I tried this at a tasting a couple of months ago in Perth and thought was a bit bland. However the beer was served very cold, lager temp, so may be that destroyed the taste and my buds.

    Beer In Bali

    Been a couple of times. In terms of value for money it is hard to beat. Last time we stayed in Semanyak in a self contained villa with it's own pool. The food is generally good and relatively inexpensive. Beerwise it is a bit of a wasteland. The lagers are cheap and suit the climate, the Storm...

    Are yes, the veteran scorns our novitiate fawning over this particularly foppish beverage. Where are the hard-men of yesteryear? Probably attending a wankfest. God it must be lonely at the top ... sob ...

    Hops In Wa

    Hi there, I have a number of different plants, PoR, some Goldings and maybe some Columbus. I grow them for decoration as I'm too slack to pick the flowers and dry them out. I live in Dianella, the oldest plant is PoR and has been in for about 4 or 5 years. I haven't done anything special and I...

    OK, I'll bite, care to share? And I don't think this is a wankfest, in fact it the argument could be made that those who find the beer "underwhelming" are indulging in a bit of pud-pulling.

    I don't think the transit has done it any harm, tastes the same as it did in the US IIRC. I love US style pale ales and this is without doubt one of the best, as are the other 2 beers you mention. I'd say SNPA is probably hoppier than LCPA, closer to Alpha. And it's actually cheaper than Alpha.

    Good, you don't have one (argument that is).

    Sierra Nevada@dan Murphys

    Thanks. I bought a carton from the IBS specialty shop here in Perth about a month ago when the imports first started and the price was $77 a carton so not a big discount at DM but it is more convenient location wise for me.

    I would never do that, I'm not much of a patriot and given Ben Franklin's maxim I don't consider that a bad thing. I'm not sure what SN's business model is but I what I meant was that the likelihood of Coopers signature brands being BUL is comparable to SNs. True.

    Sierra Nevada@dan Murphys

    Yes, well, it's not quite as straightforward as that, at least not for me. BTW, does anyone know what the carton price was at DMs?

    Sierra Nevada@dan Murphys

    If you're comparing InBev to SN then you're comparing chalk and cheese. Better to compare SN to Coopers who managed to fight of Lion a few years ago. SN COULD be brewed under licence but only if they sell the whole operation to someone like InBev, something I don't think will happen but, give...

    Cynical

    Is this something to do with the anti-female stuff put up in another AHB forum under the guise of a complaint about legislation making it more difficult for men to place their family at risk of violence?

    That's not a bad size for that money, and it's jacketed. What's the name of the firm who made it?

    Element Sizing For Electric Kettle

    Hi all, I'm thinking about going up to a larger system, may be 100L. I thought I saw somewhere some information about sizing electric elements for a given volume of liquid. Anyone have an insights? cheers Patrick.
