Heads Up For Those Who Follow James Squires Limited Releases...

[Pollux]

I spotted a truckload of these flying past me on Parramatta Rd about 3 weeks ago, but there was no info out then, and I couldn't make out the lettering on the cases well enough to work out what it was...

Found the answer.

Sundown Lager


I asked the guys at the local bottle-o to hold me at least a 6pack when it's released...

I shall report on the 24th.

Sweet thanks.

I meant to post this here earlier; people on the Malt Shovel Mailing List would already have received this (note that the price seems to apply to members... free members). Very interesting for those of us in Adelaide. Anyone wanna go?

You will also be one of the first lucky people to sample our new Limited Release James Squire Sundown Lager.

After reading the first post again... "one of the first lucky people to sample" seems a bit off if it comes out 3 days earlier in shops. :huh:

 

[vicelore]

I intend to be cracking one open by midday EDST on the 24th...

Will be dropping in to my local to let them know the name and make sure they will have cases....

And if it is good, they will bring it out.... then dumb it down! Like they did to the Golden Ale!

Hi,

I've been drinking my carton since last Friday(14th). Very nice refreshing lager.
Going to get another this Friday. Liked it that much!

Dogs01 :icon_cheers:

 

[Pollux]

Sorry What???

Where the hell did you get one??

 

[peas_and_corn]

Im guessing stolen.

I tried their winter pepperberry ale and thought it was all right, not excpetional... hope this one's a bit better.

 

[jonocarroll]

I wish they'd have another crack at the strong ale - that was fine! Wasn't too keen on the rum rebellion though.

Stuff like this is what makes a brewery worth keeping an eye on.

 

[vicelore]

loved the mad rasberry wheat they did .. that was awesome.

Damn it, I just dropped by the local Vintage Cellars, they normally get the limited release stuff first in the area...

They hadn't heard of it, well, they know about it now....I have them on the case now...

Try Camperdown Cellars on Parramatta Road. They had it when I went in on the weekend.

I grabbed a bottle. Not a bad summer lager IMO, & more hop bitterness than I expected, but not something I'll be rushing out to buy.

Shall swing by there tomorrow on the way home from work, thanks for the heads up...

 

[the_fuzz]

[benny_bjc]
