The Dark Island is not a bad drop.
Cantillon I think my opinion on this has been made pretty clear up here The Rose de Gambrinus is still one of my all time favourite beers.
You know about the banana bread beer...
The Youngs Christmas Pudding was nice enough but lacked the spice character to me. I keep comparing all christmas beers to my one from a few years ago and none have had the spices there enough to me.
Unibroue make good beers. The Ephemere one is a little strange...
I went for a Unibrou glass myself when I got my complimentary one the other day...
There are so many good beers in 'the shop' as I like to call it that I have trouble a) deciding which to get and B) not spending too much money...

 

[Jye]

not spending too much money...

Same here... When I grabbed some Cantillon I just closed my eyes and handed over the CC

[mattcarty]

Back on topic for a minute. I'm drinking Deuchars IPA, a rather bitter Scottish drop - picked up two cases last week for $10 each. That's a mere 83 cents a bottle (and theyre 500ml bottles!).

 

[Fermented]

Deuchars for $10? Where? It was $12 around here and now it's all gone (sobbing...) The 500 ml bottles are a ripper for we who still bottle.

It's not a bad drop, certainly not IPA in the character of the Squire impression of one, but for the price it's just right.

Cheers - Fermented.

 

[Jase71]

You got 12 x 500ml for $12 ? My deal wasn't that good then... but to answer your question, my neighbour works a second job at a bottle shop (dont know what its called, but it's one owned by Woolworths or Coles) and they were getting rid of them because the expiry date was 23/01/09. He was telling me that the regular price is $20 - which still makes it an extroadinarily cheap beer though.

I'm not a huge fan of the bitters, but thought it would be a good conditioning for my palette if I had twelve litres on hand.

1/2 way thru necking a apricot wheat beer from canadian brewery McAuslan - St Ambroise Apricot Wheat Ale.

Awesome Apricot on the nose and sight apricot sweetness which finishes quite dry and peppery then sets in with a lingering apricot aftertaste.

very nice!

 

[Muggus]

Tried a couple more lambics

Kriek Boon 2006
Pretty straight-forward sort of cherry beer. Sour cherries, bit on the sweet side, not a great deal of acid or funk.

Framboise Boon 2004
Bit more interesting than the Kriek. Still a bit sweet and jammy with a slight raspberry sourness, but some nice 'horsy' funk hits me straightup, seemingly intensifying as it warms. Age seems to help.

the other day i went to the union hotel in adelaide the pub across from work its a yuppy pub try to avoid it when possible but it is way too close to work for me to resist sometimes especially when it has been a s#$t day at work and it is about 40*c,

i tired Fat Yak for the first time on tap and absolutely loved it! i was told that it is made by little creature is that correct?

i was a little annoyed to see that they listed Coopers beers on their boutique beer menu, WTF?

again no photo sorry, i mean hey im only a professional photographer why would i have a camera with me?

Cheers
Carty

 

[goomboogo]

Carty, Fat Yak is made by Matilda Bay. I read somewhere they wanted to make a beer that was more palatable to the majority of the market as the Alpha Pale Ale was too forward in the flavour department for many people. I assume they are still making Alpha. It would be a shame if they let it go.

OMG, I had a pint of th Fat Yak Pale Ale last night at 'lambs go bar'. Aucking Fwsome! AFAIK its brewed by Matilda Bay.

Quit assertive yet smooth bitterness I have a feeling its got some chinook in there, possibly dry hopped as the haze in my pint lastnight didnt taste like yeast. Definitely 'C' hopd eitherway and grassy (im assuming from dry hopping).

Get your hands on it if you havn't as of yet!
