Amstel has been my beer of choice for a low budget night with a few mates, for around 30 rods it had a real malty flavour tho just a bit shy on hops but it ranks very high compared to our swill. But....... the problem now lies, have the stocks run dry? all the bottle o's around the hills...

As the title says, I'm leaving the thriving metrpolis of young and moving back to Sydney, Castle Hill to be exact. The job at the abattoir fell through with the drought and for those of you who are glued to the news it was the plant that was hit by an arson attack. Anyway the major pig farm...

I have a snap lock beer tap that has no snap lock adapter. Can anyone push me in the right direction for a cheap one that may be laying around? Cheers, Timmy

I remember someone a few weeks ago asking about the thread on our CO2 bottles. Am i right in saying it's a 7/8 UNF? it rings a bell but i could be wrong.

I've just moved from Sydney to Young, left the navy for a job I couldn't refuse and am wondering if any fellow brewers are living this way. By the way this town is great!!! Wish i moved here years ago! no more spending 40 minutes driving 15 kms to get to work every day!!!! So if there is...
