Whats On Tap At The Platform Bar - Brissy

[nate2g]

A big cheers to Chris (Beer Masons) and Dave (Innspire) for a great arvo/nite of drinking and eating at the PB. The food was paired well with the beers on offer. Oysters with porter was a treat, and the sea salt chips were ridiculously good. A decent turnout and patrons were introduced to some fine beers in the way of IPA's, IS's and barley wines.

The beers listed below are new beers I tried and probably will be available at the bar (though maybe stock is limited after tonight.):-
Nogne O Brown Ale
Nogne O IPA
Nogne O Bitter
Nogne O havrestout
Nogne O Imperial Stout
Meantime London Porter
Flying Dog Horn Barley Wine
Flying Dog Double Dog Double Pale Ale

Hope to see more beer tasting sessions like this sooner than later/never.

Cheers,
Nate

I agree with nate... Cheers for Masterchef Beer Mason Chris & Innspire Dave, & Platform Matt for the great Sunday at the Grand Central Platform! On top of all the good food & beer, it was a fundraiser for the RCH.

Matilda Bay Big Helga - Not as 'big' as the forst unfiltered keg was a couple weeks ago. Rather underwhielming. I'll take their Alpha Pale Ale that was on tap thank you.

Ngne Bitter - A nice balanced beer this. Enjoyed it mucho.

Rogue Double Dry-hopped Red - My wife's favourite of the day.

Flying Dog Gonzo Porter - A seriously dark brew with chocolate head! A Cascade hop-bomb diffused by some serious malting!

Flying Dog Horn Dog Barleywine - This stuff hit home with me as it tasted very much like a certain batch of Hair of the Dog Fred I loved a few years back when I was in Seattle. I had two of these.

I also enjoyed a Feral Hop-Hog from their tap-list before exiting. The tap-list looked pretty good for too. Can't remember them all... Erdinger? Alpha PA, Feral Hop-Hog, Feral Wit (ran out)... didn't see Stone & Wood, Fat Yak, or any James Squire for a change.

Although I work in the Valley I never get the chance to hop down to the Platform Bar. I reckon Tidal Pete and I will have to break our journey there on our way to Bethania Station for the Chinese Hop Packing day

Marco polo, call that a kilo? Wazza matta.... near enough's good enough ... hic...burp....brrruppp (T.P) B)

On Tap now is looking good:
Franzikaner
Erdinger
Alpha Pale Ale
Brewers Ale
APA from Burleigh - not sure about this as it was half rubbed off
Hop Hog
Feral Wit
Big Helga

Not a bad list, with left overs of flying dog and rogue in bottles

I reckon it's the best range ever on tap at the moment - nice wide variety!

Tried the Feral Hop Hog last night - almost met my match I reckon! Just when I thought you could never have enough hops...
