Righteo, through the week I bottled the cinnamon and clove batch. This one is smoooooooth as shit!! Doesn’t really have “taste” per se but it’s definitely smooth. Not sweet, not dry. Can just taste the honey and no strong alcohol “burn”. I like it, my test subjects like it so I think it’s a win...

All good mate, no hurry at all. I’ll still grab them in a month mate. I’ll check back through here in a few weeks. Cheers.

Probably head down to Eagle Point on Saturday @droid. You around for a beer? I’ll pm my number and we’ll catch up. Saturday or Sunday anyway, depending on fishing...

Can I get a pack of 4184, sweet mead please Steve. Cheers, Troy First order so do I order through here or website?

I’ll be staying at the caravan park. I’ll book a site in the coming weeks if I remember... Heading to Lakes tomorrow until Monday, might swing on down for a bit of a gander. I’ll let you know droid and maybe catch up for a beer?

What sizes do the mead yeasts come in? May be interested.

Is that $42 for 1 bloody glass?? Or is it a set??

My daughter was also thinking of being a copper. Not anymore though, wants to play AFLW...

Hahahaha. Wouldn’t surprise me.

Hold the phone guys, she’s just said she wants to walk around there and then go for a walk... WTF?! Perhaps all is not lost?!

Yep, I’ve asked. Her answer is can’t be bothered. I’m telling you, lazy! Haha. I think she thinks because she does sport she doesn’t need to do anything else. We’re in an extremely friendly, small town in country Victoria. Not much happens here and we know lots of people on the way to her...

Nah, she’s just lazy. Not intimidated by much.

Couple of younger kids at home to watch otherwise I would. She’s not completely lazy, I’ll give her that. It’s just when it comes to walking to a friends house. She’s recently been selected into the U15’s development squad with a possible gig in the U16’s & U18’s in the girls football district...

How ******* lazy teenage kids are these days!! My daughter turns 15 on the 24th but won’t walk to her friends house and home again who lives about 700m away... Gave the old “when I was your age” tale (which is actually true though!) that when I was her age I used to walk about 3-4kms to my mates...

Here’s some of the small goods:

I’m just cooking up some venison rissoles. It’s a mix my butcher did from a sambar I shot. He made up some strass, cabana and sausages and this was left over mince from the snags. I rolled them in egg, crumbed them with some parmesan cheese and put some seasoning salt in the crumbs.

From all I have read, bulk aging is better. Me personally, with my JAOs I’ve waited around the 2 months from first mix to bottling. I bottle into 750ml wine bottles and if there’s not a full bottle left I will use stubbies. As you might have read in some of my Mead threads, I’m either not...

Had a shot as a taster of the watermelon one. Was a nice drink. As you said, easy to drink. That place could be dangerous with the easy to drink beers.... haha.

That outside “beer garden” area is bloody awesome! We’ve been looking for an acreage lot down here in Vic (40ac plus) and I told the missus that if we get one on any sort of hill that I want to do a deck like the one there. One change I’d do is add a big stone fireplace in the middle.

I’ve just moved on from a 10 day holiday in the Port Stephens area and on recommendation from a few members here I went to Murray’s for a beer. We were there about 4 days ago so I can’t recall exactly how everything was but I know if I’d have another or not. Firstly, it was single handedly...
