It's wierd how you piss more in the cold weather. I didn't really know about this until my kids keep overflowing there nappies at night in the cold weather. Learnt pretty quick then.

Not really that odd when you think about it....

In the warmer months your body will sweat more, this dehydrates the body causing you to have less excess fluid to urinate out.........

Standing at the bar at Potters on friday @ lunch. 5 or 6 taps of craft beer available, and some guy next to me asks for another Corona.
Can't help but cry a little on the inside. Then I enjoy a glass of Choc Chili Porter and I'm happy again.

That happened to me once at the Belgian Beer Cafe with a work colleague... told him it was my shout, have anything you want. He ordered a Corona... almost slapped him... only saving grace was Corona was $7 a bottle vs $15 for a 500mL Leffe.

My other half brought me back a couple of beers from her visit to ACT/Sydney. Looking forward to trying them... especially the Cantillon :icon_drool2:

checked on my fermentors this morning and they are happily fermenting slowly away. just right for a nice london bitter and big american brown. happy man I am. when these finish fermenting in a week or so, ill have 10 kegs of beer ready to drink and 4 cubes tucked away ready for fermenting at lesuire. If Im luck Ill brew a double batch this weekend and cube the lot and have 6 cubes sitting pretty. all ready for the baby to arrive now.

just some interesting commentary on importing hops. received the latest hopsdirect newsletter today. Galaxy hops at $16.90 a pound. with some rough calcs (ie no real caluations, just eyeballing figures) that makes buying an australian hop cheaper from the US than buying it here. ridiculous.

Holy shit. 4 hours without a response. No wonder you're on your period.

Oops. I mean mad. Two totally different and unrelated things. Damned autocorrect.

No way could I go 4 month without a beer.
Especially not now that mrs warra and I are currently swanning around Europe.
Every cafe,brasserie, restaurant, supermarket etc etc etc presents me with more beer porn.

edit: I love engineers - we were discussing "ethics" and what the word meant for him in his discipline etc. A third party eventually used the old chestnut "how long is a piece of string", and without missing a heartbeat the engineer responded with: "precisley twice as long as it is from its exact centre to one of its ends" (or that is roughly the gist). F*ck I laughed. Engineers. I raise my glass to them.

I'm going to put this in the off topic rather than the thread it was in but there was one about 'when a gingerbeer gets bored at work' and someone explained that what was meant was that gingerbeer = engineer, I so wanted to reply that this wasn't the rhyming slang that I knew...

As to the string? Well, everybody loves string...

Very good beer the Kriek. My favourite will always be the Rose de Gambrinus though. A complete revelation to me that beer was.

Srry KT girl. Wasn't paying attention to OT. What's, what taste like, galaxy? Galaxy is awsome. Huge assertive passionfruit flavour and bitterness. Team it up with Nelson sav and it's complex and spectacular summer beer.

She's demanding product reviews, brah.
