[Mikedub]

Had a great time today, guys. Thanks to everyone who came along and made it such a nice day.

Mike, sorry for boring you with water chemistry talk )

not at all, and considering the state I was in I seemd to have retained most of the information. (Sydney water = 8) :beer:

great night, good to meet you all

Only managed to make the Taphouse, Pumphouse and Taphouse. But had a great evening with good company and some very enjoyable beers. Maibock and Weizen Eisbock the most memorable for me.

Walked in the door a little after midnight after waiting for what seemed like half an hour but probably closer to 10 minutes for a cab at the station... in short sleeves... after letting a family with two kids cut in front of me and take the last taxi.

Just got home - damm that's a long taxi ride :blink:
The full sign went up after the Pumphouse, so got a feed and train.
Thanks for a good day fellas even if it got rather hazy toward the end, I should get a few guys to come down with me next year.

Awoke at Barls at 10.30 this morning (I think I was tired). We finally got back there at god knows what time - did the tourist thrill and went over the Harbour Bridge!!

After a five hour trip, finally back in Moruya. Great time had and some marvellous beers tasted. Doc's Synapse at both Harts and The Taphouse were sensational as was seeing the man twice throughout the day. His Zephyr (double wit?) was a ripper too - loved the Harts Pub all round.

Only low points was no Nelson's Blood on tap at The Nelson and no belgium gold available at the Belgian Beer Cafe. Fu%@ing sour beers are crap. Some of you blokes have your taste buds well and trully off sync.

Great to catch a number of new people who were all called Peter or Michael and James Bond. And to see the old faces.

Thoughts for next year - meet at the Lowenbrau then do a ferry trip to Manly for The Four Pines & Murrays. Then back to Sydney and a dinner / beer meal. Keep you informed.

lastly great to see the Winkle man and missus in town - both are great people, lovely company and pissheads.

Bloody enjoyable time!

Isn't there a Bavarian Bier Caf over there too? I'm sure they do those Mango Weizens that you love so much there too Fatz!

No problems, just have to figure out where the camera is.

 

[Pollux]

Found a few photos on my phone, forgot I had taken them.......

First two from when we collided with a hen's party at the Nelson and they needed to pose with a "James Bond Look-a-like" The other would be Fatz with his hoegaarden in a pretty glass....

 

[matho]

Just wanted to throw my 2c in.
Brilliant day. It was one of the best days out on the cans I have had.

Great people, conversations, amazing beer.

I had a great time guys, congrats to all who had greater staying power than I.

Herself has located the camera so I'll stick some pics up after work. She also found some glass-like objects that I don't remember 'finding', and informs me that I was dribbling *****³ by the time we got to Harts - I blame the impressive array of beers that needed drinking.
Look us up if any of you lot are up this way for a beer or 20.

 

[BjornJ]

some mobile pics from the belgian, walking to king street wharf then later at the tap house.
The last one is Josh's double icebock.































Sorry I didn't get everyone, particularly Winkle and prettier half coming all the way from Brisbane.

 

[winkle]

Got some finally.
