There has been the fish tail at the lion for a while now. I have had quite a few pints down there. Do yourself a favour and get down there.

Good news Pedro!

More good news for those in Adelaide.

The FAD bar on Waymouth St in Adelaide now has the Fish Tale Pilsner on tap. Geoff is serving the pils and also another microbrewery beer (can't remember what it was : :angry: )

Cheers

Excellent news Pedro.

I was in the FAD just last week, and I found their other "local" micro brewed beer pretty forgetable too :p

Next to it, the Fish Tail should go down very well indeed!
 
Good to hear Pedro. FAD is just around the corner from me so I'll drop by soon.

Now if you can get it into the Earl of Aberdeen I'd be a very happy camper :)

Might have to organise an AHB get together there as they have a few goat beers in the fridge as well.

Cheers

You can twist my arm too.

In fact, I demand that you twist my arm.
 
I missed this one!

Well done pedro........ Great to see.

I like the idea of the mash paddle wilnner being the seasional beer.

Got 4th last year and it was a nice beer so the winner would be a good seller for sure.

I am sipping my robust porter now. mmmmmmmmmmmm

fingers crossed :)

tony bows to your bravery and acomplishments.

well done mate.

i hope to see your beers on the shelf at the local soon.

cheers

Speaking of Cactus

Subject: FW: A true story and its source was Australian quarantine (OH MYGOD!)




A true story and its source was the Australian Quarantine Inspection Service in Adelaide.



A bloke and his family were on holidays in the United States and went to Mexico for a week. An avid cactus fan, the man bought one-metre high, rare and expensive cactus there. On arrival back home Australian Customs said it must be quarantined for 3 months.



He finally got his cactus home. Planted it in his backyard, and over time it grew to about 2 metres. One evening while watering his garden after a warm spring day, he gave the cactus a light spray. He was amazed to see the plant shiver all over, he gave it another spray and it shivered again.
He was puzzled so he rang the council who put him on to the state gardens people. After a few transfers he got the state's foremost cactus expert who asked him many questions. How tall is it? Has it flowered? Etc.



Finally he asked the most disturbing question. "Is your family in the house?" The bloke answered yes. The cactus expert said get out of the house NOW, get on to the front nature strip and wait for me; I will be there in 20 minutes.



Fifteen minutes later, 2 fire trucks, 2 police cars and an ambulance came screaming around the corner. A fireman got out and asked "Are you the bloke with the cactus?" I am, he said. A guy jumped out of the fire truck wearing what looked like a space suit, a breathing cylinder and mask attached to what looked like a scuba backpack with a large hose attached. He headed for the backyard and turned a flame-thrower on the cactus spraying it up and down.



After a few minutes the flame-thrower man stopped, the cactus stood smoking and spitting, half the fence was burnt and parts of the gardens were well and truly scorched. Just then the cactus expert appeared and laid a calming hand on the bloke's shoulder. "What the hell's going on?" he says. "Let me show you" says the cactus man. He went over to the cactus and picked away a crusty bit, the cactus was almost entirely hollow and filled with tiger striped bird-eating tarantula spiders, each about the size of two hand spans.



The story was that this type of spider lays eggs in this type of cactus and they hatch and live in it as they grow to full size. When full size they release themselves. The cactus just explodes and about 150 dinner plate sized hairy spiders are flung from it, dispersing everywhere. They had been ready to pop. The aftermath was that the house and the adjoining houses had to be vacated and fumigated: police tape was put up outside the whole area and no one was allowed in for two weeks.



And here's what one of the b*stards looks like sitting on a FULL SIZE dinner plate..

Great urban myth Normell. ;)

Well done, Pedro. Sounds like you are making a go of it and providing fine beers for Adelaide (and hopefully Australia.)
