On a quick trip to "Dan's" today I floated past numerous craft beers already sampled and as always was looking for something new to try. I've walked past the Mildura Brewery's range a number of times but decided today to part with my $4 for a bottle of his hard work.
Christ! Has anyone tried the "Storm - Cloudy Ale" offered from this brewery?....if so, u know my pain.
I hate to criticise someone that's already able to get their beer into the commercial scene but, this particular beer actually tasted identical to a "excess-of bits" brew I put together late last year and which currently sits in bottles on the shelf for when times are truely desperate.
My "clearing of the old cupboard brew" contained;
1 can of T. Coopers draught
1 can of Morgans Pale Lager Malt
A little handful of crystal,cara,amber something or other and a dollop of Amarillo.
Now I couldn't recommend u go and brew this, but it would have to be the closest match I have made to a commercially available beer.
It makes me wonder, are there craft beers out there using extract methods and charging premium dollars? I should of known a beer with the picture of the brewer on the front was going to be a flop....
I want my 4 bucks back.
