Ahb Sydney Pub Crawl 2006

[Boozy the clown]

And let the 'wheelchair incident' live in the legend of the tales of Linz, witnessess to prove the account. It was a harrowing experience...

Skid marks everywhere, some of the pavers too.

Bloody great to meet so many of you. Execellent night on the piss, excellent. Still feel robbed for the $14.90 Baltic Porter bottle at Red Oak, tho Cheers all at end of a leggless night (Mel excluded from prizes ).

 

[Stuster]

A great night out. Thanks to those who set it all up. Good beers (bar the Redoak). Great to meet so many AHBers. Cheers.

Had a great time yesterday on the pub crawl. For your amusement, you can see some pics here. I've provided them without comment, except to say that Pumpy, you'll find a pic of you with your hero in there

I was looking forward to a rather low key afternoon, but that went out the window with that Plum Schnapps - at 43%!!

Thanks Andrew,

It was great to catch up with everyone .

My mouth is still puckered from drinking the 'Timmeremans Gueuze ' Lambic you suggested at the Belgian beer cafe :blink:

Thanks again for posting a picture of me and my old mate and 'hero' Reinhard Wurtz the Manager of the Lowenbrau cellar and former boxer who has the world stein carrying record for carrrying twenty full one litre beer steins each weighs 2.1kg a total of 42kg over a distance of 40M.

Thanks to all for a great day. Many beers were consumed and certainly enjoyed. It was great to actually put faces to names and names to faces. :beerbang:

Look forward to catching up will all again in the future.

Mrs HK also said she had a good time. God bless her for Driving.

Cheers and Beers :beer:

Thank goodness for the great beer! Helped enormously with the pain (and possible broken leg) of the now infamous "wheelchair down a ramp" incident. At least we had the police present to witness the attempted spousal murder by my wonderful and loving hubby Linz......lol.

Was impressed with the presentation of the beer/dessert tasting plate at the Red Oak, but disappointed that others didn't find the beers much chop.

Fave beer of the night had to be the Westmalle Tripel (always a fave) at the Belgium. Roechfort 10 was superb, but it's difficult to appreciate it when it costs you more than it does to fill the car............

Great to meet everyone and put faces to avatars, especially HomeKegger1 and Emma. Hope to meet up again soon - once swelling goes down and cast comes off....

BTW - a massive THANKS to Gerard, who although couldn't be with us, organised the reception given to us at each place. BEERZ to Gerard!!!!! :beerbang:

 

[Franko]

What a bloody Great Day and Nite,

Many thanks Again for a great day out cant wait to catch up with you all and do it again
Cheers
Franko

 

[Ross]

Back home & in one piece - A big thank's to everyone for accepting a cane toad in your midst & making it such a great day... I had a ball :beer:

Always good to be able to put faces to names & chew the cud over a beer or 3...

I'll post some pictures over the next couple of days...

Cheers Ross

 

[Gerard_M]

Good to see everybody enjoyed the day. I saw Crusher & Mrs Crusher this arvo, they said they enjoyed the crawl, but you have to think the truck was a bit cold last night!
While you were wandering from pub to pub, I was going from chemist shop to chemist shop trying to find some Panadol Sinus tablets. It seems they are hard to get for people with a sinus infection (A gift from my snot covered daughter). I explained to the guy that I wasn't going to make speed, I just wanted to be able to breath. After filling out some personal info he found some in the safe out the back!
Maybe next year
Cheers
Gerard

 

[Ross]

What a coincidence - yesterday was World Beer Day. good to see we celebrated it in style :beer:

Edit: Whoops, got my dates mixed - looks like it's today - an excuse for another beer :chug:

Cheers Ross

Thanks to all for the company, conversation, amusement, and an excellent birthday present/day out for me.

Gerard, thanks for the intro to the venues. Shame that you couldn't come along, and dirty shame that U gotta sign paperwork to get medication. See U next time, maybe.

It was great to let one's hair down, even if it was facial hair. I think I had the longest brewer's beard on the day (ha ha).

Linz, thanks for the reminder to visit the bottlo at the Lowenbrau.

Boozy,...so much for going home after the Lowenbrau. At least U went home after the Squire brewhouse (I hope).

For World Beer Day, I just bottled 10 litres of an Irish Red, made with Aussie Malt by a half-Dutch brewer. (*Edit - Gonna keg the other 15 litres.*)

Excellent day out. Thanks to Gerard for organising it. Woke up in Newcastle and had to wait an hour and a half for a train back to Gosford, so I whiled away the time at the pub across the road. There is definitely some nice eye candy in Newcastle. Can't wait til next years crawl.

Beers,

:lol: :chug: :lol:

You're 2 funny

 

[Hopsta]

Thats the most fun i've had in a while, my memory fails me after the James Squire but im guessing my autopilot kicked in and i got a train home, i woke up surpised that i even made it home. It was great to meet you all, great bunch of genuinley friendly people! Cant wait till the next crawl, although i think next year i'll have a quiet night the night before, hair of the dog at the Lord Nelson wasnt the best way to start a pub crawl.

 

[Linz]
