Whats limited? 6 Craft Beers? In Hervey Bay, Qld, 6 isn't limited, we will still have the good old VB, XXXX, Teds, Carlton Midstrength etc etc
There arwe 6 Micros in QLD - why waste diesel shipping from other States!
Congrats on the License.
Thanks for that answer, well worth considering..
You have a high regard for your customers. :huh:
I do actually, lucky im only writing about them on a Computer and not to their faces.. :blink:
That's what I was thinking!
As above.. :blink:
If the food is spicy, no point serving porter cause they will taste wrong and you won't sell the stuff. With roast lamb or beef, it works. I suggest you stick to pilsners, pale ales, light wheat beers as this is what mega swill drinkers will cope with but the educated drinkers would like. Go for local small brewery stuff as the brewers will know what work with locals.
Great answer, I dont serve Roast Lamb or Beef but Modern Australian Cuisine and yes something as you suggested is what I was sort of looking for as in a Nice Pils, Pale Ale, Wheat and yes something Local(qld)
Cheers mate..
"I would just like to put on 6 Nice Beers to have as an option for the Guys/Gals that want to think they are upmarket and impress there friends by drinking the good/different stuff."
Is that actually a serious comment? Last time I checked most of my friends thought Stella Artois was pretty "upmarket". They weren't too impressed when I ordered some fruity and/or malty IPA or Porter.
So basically you want to know what beers you can charge a premium for?
Do you have a draught system or are you just going to be serving bottles?
Well, Stella would prob be on there for the people that think it is upmarket.
Beers I could charge a premium for is prob what I am asking also..
And they will be just sold in a bottle, no draught system..
Are you sure these really aren't for your own end of night celebrations :icon_cheers:
Ive thought of that..
Just by asking questions here, he's already doing better than %99 of the restaurants out there...
Another decent remark, thanks...
The six individual beers I'd buy would be hard to sell in a restaurant, especially considering the overview you've provided of your customer base. I somehow doubt Gueuze, Rauchbier and Saison are going to appeal to your customers.
I'd look at keeping it simple and local as others have suggested. Unless you're planning on specialising in beer, you're going to find it hard to sell what some people would buy here when visiting a store.
Cheers mate, I understand what you are saying in relation the above mentioned beers..
Well, thanks for everyones replies so far, a couple very helpful ones in there. We do have alot of Generic people come in, alot of Backpackers from all over the world(that visit our marine aquarium also), Europeans, Americans, a vast array of different nationalites actually, so the idea of some nice local beers has been a great help.
I guess its hard for anyone to give me an exact idea of what would work, even if I did post a Menu as youse wouldnt be able to taste the flavours anyhow through the computer. Would be best for myself to buy a few different beers and try with some dishes on the menu and go from there.
Cheers
