Mad Brewers (James Squire) Ten20 Commemorative Ale

[benny_bjc]

I have been looking for this beer everywhere! Most of the bottleshops don't even know what I am talking about. I've tried big and small bottlos. I have even emailed malt shovel but still couldn't find it in the bottleshops.

I might go for a hunt tomorrow arvo.....

I feel Camperdown Cellars may well be the answer...

Stopped in there this arvo (the main one on Parramatta Rd at Camperdown), and they were expecting the delivery this arvo.
Apparently they have had a few request for it and expect it to go fast.

Also stopped at Annandale Cellars. The guy tried to convince me that it wasn't going to be distributed to bottle shops as there wasn't enough, and that it wasn't released yet anyway. I politely informed it had been released, and was available around the country.
So then he then proceeded to tell me he had been given two bottles to try and it wasn't anything special. Bit my tongue, bought a bottle of Moa and left.

What time do they open??? All of about 4 blocks from my place, better take the car though, cases ain't light...

Is there anywhere on the north shore selling it?

 

[beersatan]

I'm pretty curious to taste this 5 hop combo so I googled and found this site selling cases. http://www.microbeerclub.com.au/
A case is only 9x640mL bottles @ $67.50 plus shipping so I'll probably save those $$'s to fill a few more kegs but if I see a bottle around the traps it will be mine.

For you south western Adelaideans it is available at the Thirsty Camel bottleshop behind the Holdy.
3 for $20 or 1 for $8.

Anyone seen any around Canberra?

3 for $20 or 1 for $8?!? I think I was robbed :lol: Bloody good value beer, for what it is. Surprised they can keep the price down *somewhat* with the 8% alcohol in it. Not complaining though.

IBS, Cellarbrations, and Carlise Wine Bin for sure.
Probably the Fremantle Doctor as well

Do you know what the IBS is charging for a carton?

 

[faryg]

We charge $56 ctn - 9 bottles to a carton. Cellarbrations Willagee

 

[jackmc]

I just bought a case off http://www.microbeerclub.com.au/ - mainly because I'm worried about it running out before I find a bottle shop that sells it. They charge a premium though, it better be good!

Alright, stopped by the Parramatta Rd store of Camperdown cellars, they sold yesterday's allocation in 5 minutes, I had the option to either drive over to the Leichhardt store or put my name on the list at Camperdown for some of 30 cases being delivered this afternoon.....

Leichhardt store was a success, seems the brewery tours are telling people to go to the Parramatta Rd store, and not mentioning Leichhardt.....So those in Sydney who want some, they got 10 yesterday and I bought the 4th one.....Catherine St near Styles.....

$65 for the case.....

I have put one in the fridge for tonight, the rest have been hidden in the cellar (read: garage I have taken over)

Tried this at the Platform Bar. Nice beer, you wouldn't know it was 8%. Should only get better with age.
