HOLY SHIT! I simply cannot believe that I forgot to complain about this.

I was in The Healesville Hotel on the weekend. Walked in and eyeballed the taps from the doorway. My usual practice is to do a quick pass to see how bad the damage is rather than checking for good stuff. Boags was the worst of the bunch. So I decide to go in there instead of The Grand down the street. I look more closely this time and see a laminated Mikkeller logo sticky-taped to the font. Okay, I know what I'm having then.

I ask "What's the Mikkeller you've got on?"
Barkeep's reply "It's Mikkeller IPA."
"Which one?"
He helpfully says "IPA is a hoppy style - the thing about this one is the hoppy smell comes through in the flavour which you don't usually get."
"Which IPA is it? They make several." says the quickly becoming impatient prick wearing my shirt.
"It is the best IPA in the world."
"...I'll have a pint of that then. Thanks." [furrowed brow, daggers]
He builds SWMBO's drink then pours mine and comes back and says "The sommelier ordered it but he finished up here during the week and I only put the keg on today. I think we've got the name of it written down somewhere if you'd like." ****, just say that in the first place.

Anyway, it was Green Gold. It smelled classic West Coast fruity and tasted smoother classic West Coast resiny. Really nice beer.

Ha you could throw a rock at one from the other! I make it about 10 equivalent car parking spaces.

In between them is the Barrique Wine Store. It has a fridge or two of imported beers. Last time I was in there he had a number of Bear Republic, EPIC, 8-Wired and other intertesting ones Iwhoies names I can't recall. These beers are probably easily accessible in the city but I don't get to see them very often. I reckon the licencee would be up for a yarn about them and I'd be interested to see what a wino has to say about beer.
 
Yeah, I had a sneaky-peak in there. Nothing I hadn't had before but much better than I expected to find up there. Unfortunately I'd already purchased brews for the room at LiquorLand. Sad Panda.

Got a link so we can go check out Stacey's hot feet? ;)
 
I'm really puzzled by the Budget Insurance ads "boojay boojay..". How come the old guy is an Aussie but his daughter speaks with a distinct French Accent?

I've always assumed it was his young French lover...or escort...
 
When the Euro collapses there will probably be a few more coming over as well. Polish women are hot.

I think she speaks Italian, but what would I know?
Must say the ad has puzzled me too.
But then again, having worked in the insurance industry for 38 years, I think all insurance ads are lame.

Has anyone ever noticed that all bank ads seem to really run down banks. I guess it's the only strategy left open to them, because there really damn all positive things anyone could say about the banking industry. They must think we are stupid enough to believe all banks are really bastards, except the bank featured in the ad. The truth is, they're all bastards, without exception.

Agreed, and the two I've been with are minxes in the sack.

Using your text, I propose that it could be modified as per above and still be valid.

SWMBO put on a boring depressing movie last night, Melancholia.
Luckily I was busy doing other stuff, but I looked over in time to catch a good view of Kirsten Dunst's rack.
Udderly fantastic.
 
I fell asleep during March of the Penguins after 7 pints of Yorkshire Gold on nitro. I hope there's enough left in the keg to take some to BABBs tonight.
 
Currently if you are on a Foxtel package that doesn't include the sports package and you want to watch the Olympics with 6 constantly running HD channels you can just get sports put on for $13 per July and August. Fricken bargain. Didn't have to sign up a contract either, just jump in and jump out again. :icon_cheers:
