Long time, no post! My brewing equipment has been laying dormant for a few years while on brewing hiatus for various reasons, and now it turns out I'm moving overseas so it all has to go! Only now have I realised how much crap I accumulated, and how ambitious I was with my purchases (as evident...

The health problems are readily apparent... but you never know, it could save your life!

Man, 23, fatally shot after intervening in beer run Good samaritan killed by a guy stealing two cartons of beer... Sad.

Got invited to the schutzenfest with the promise of a free ticket... And I'm there now! It's a lot better than I remember it! Lots of boozy wankers about drinking Jim beam, but a lot of music, food, and culture on display also. There's fresh schofferhoffer on tap, which is perfect for this...

First, I was like: ... and: You were all like: When they arrived, I was all like: But you were all like: So I went all: But I was really like: So then I:

To keep discussion out of the Bulk Buys and Hop of the Week threads, which are for the purchasing and reviews of the hops respectively, this thread is created for (relatively) free discussion of the burning issues being brought up in the other threads (that don't belong there). I have received...

While ordering my meal today I noticed a hand pump sitting in the bar. After enquiring I appears it was just put in and they are still sorting out some problems. There is an old sparkling ale label on the pump so I guess that is what will be served. Apparently it should be operating next week.

Is anyone else a fan of this most brilliant TV show? I've been following it for a few years now, and it's into it's 5th season. It is a show about 3 guys who own a shithole bar, a girl and a character played by Danny Devito. They basically live to one-up each other, get laid, live out deluded...

Now this may not match up to some of the other gourmet threads. Whilst I'm a fan of this I also find myself enjoying the simpler foods. The humble schnitzel, usually ruined beyond belief by pubs around Australia, is a blank canvas upon which masterpieces may be created. Masterpieces such as the...

Ahh the Ashes... not too far away now. The English have been whinging about Aussie players playing in County cricket. They're overestimating their lineup... after beating a deplorable WI side in a home series (and losing to them before hand in WI). The underestimate Hauritz and McDonald as...

Hahahahaha... A good joke, isn't it? :rolleyes:

I guess this is rather off-topic for a retail thread... but shouldn't Tony Ferguson be advocating light beers or no beer, rather than low-carb? Surely he must know the calorific content of alcohol greatly outweighs the carb energy...

Well, it's been an exciting day of cricket for cricket's sake; though not from a die-hard Australia fan's point of view. There's been moments of dominance with the bat courtesy of Ponting and some continuance of bad form by Hayden and Hussey. The quality of bowling has been OK, never completely...

This thread is for those who don't seriously celebrate Christmas... Happy holidays! It's a day to celebrate the fact that everyone else is taking a day off for a religious holiday and you couldn't seriously give a stuff. It's a day to drink lots and eat as many animals as possible with your...

Everytime I've been on AHB in the last week, which hasn't been as often as usual, there's been at least one thread of pure and utter crap in the latest thread list and they're usually flooded with gooey, idiotic or downright hateful responses. I'm talking about "What do you like most about...

Whisking through the Advertiser (yes, I was that bored) this morning I stumbled across a 2/3 page article on homebrewing, on page 13. I won't spoil the juicy details but in the article our good friend Jovial Monk is briefly interviewed, which sets the scene for the quality of cutting-edge...

I've been researching the last couple of months on sake brewing. It's something I've been interested in for a while, I have a couple of friends that drink it and they are encouraging me, so why not? I googled quite a lot of results regarding sake brewing, most that make it look much easier than...
