Lets never hang out.

Puffing billy? Why's that?

There was nothing good about it. Lacked malt or hop character, had an intense Carlton draught taste. I had half a glass and tipped the rest.

 

[Liam_snorkel]

I'm not sure if we are drinking the same beer.

 

[Hadrian]

Hopefully I had a bad bottle. When I tried it I assumed it was crap because of lion Nathan takeover. My local will probably have it on tap soon so will try it again.

Don't think you did, I dearly wanted to like this as a I bought a carton. Unfortunately to me it's thin, very bitter, out of balance and lacking maltiness. Almost tastes of hot alcohol? Maybe it needs more lagering time and is too young? Although its been filtered so its locked in....

Your fuckin funny Liam! That made me laugh out loud literally. Hahahaha

First post on previous page says southern saaz for bittering. I don't know what the Carlton draught taste is... Maybe iso hops?

I had that "feeling" when I first tried Day of the Long Shadow...was not a fan...but the second bottle (a few months later) wasn't bad at all

Weird :huh:

Going by the map it looks like bws will be stocking it?

Only select ones...none of my local BWSs stock any Single Batches...there is like 2 shops close to me that will stock it

 

[mikec]

I got some yesterday.
I didn't mind it , very drinkable.
Worth $8 a bottle? Probably not.

I think i judged this beer too harshly. Having one tonight and its not too bad. Its decent enough. My palate must have been rubbish yesterday :huh: It tastes like the LC pils but with a schwarz like twang. Could be a bit maltier/richer though.

 

[Blitzer]

Anyone in Brisbane know where this is stocked?

 

[Brocksmith]

It's on tap ATM and there's is about 10 boxes of it for takeaway at archive in west end.

I just took 3 bottles home from the Clarence corner hotel.

They took their delivery today. So I'd hazard a guess that archive and the Melbourne hotel did too.

For the last two batches I got a carton from the Melbourne (1 block behind archive) for around $65

[humulus]

Had one last night,dont think ill be rushing out to buy another for $10!

 

[Liam_snorkel]

had some pints (off tap) again on saturday just to make sure, and I still thought it was delicious.

 

[BPH87]

Archive in Brisbane has this on tap (two kegs) and also for take away. I think it was $9 a bottle and there was about 10 boxes left.
