Well I think Redoak are going to be exhibiting at the Perth Royal Beer Show so hopefully I'll get to sample their brews as they should be, and also talk to the brewer/s.
You would think they'd have quality control in place to stop these bad batches making it to the consumer. It screams bad business to me, and a great way to lose customers.
Thanks for the response Joshua.
Fishing always makes the beer taste better.
Is that 'cos fishing is so utterly boring anything improves it <_<
Actually I'm going to go all out and say I enjoyed the southwark stout and the bitter (regardless of the mindless rod-watching between sips haha). I had Mountain Goat steam ale last night which was horrid fizzy shit...probably not the worst I've had, but far worse than the southwarks I've consumed....
besides a mate's home brew, Three Kings Dry Lager, that I picked up from Gloucester Celebrations yesterday, was right up there.

three kings is defiently the worst followed by vale pale ale the 4 pack i bought couldnt even finish one.
even latter to reply to you, but thats not right if its extremely sour and bitter from warm storage, its infected plain and simple. it means that theres something (ether lacto or brett) in there that shouldnt be and its growing better in the warm conditions hence the problem. it happens and until they acknowledge they have a problem and move to rectify it its not going to go away.Hi guys,
I know its a bit late for this reply but needed to point out the fact that redoak needs to be refrigerated at all times and many beer warehouses and retailers don't properly store them which causes an intensely sour and bitter taste. But if you are lucky enough to taste one that is fresh and treated properly it is actually one of the most fresh citrus hopped beers that i have ever tasted and is in a league of its own if you are lucky enough to get one that isn't F#$@#D.
Cheers

I love Tennant's Super, but I reckon it's definitely pipped by Skol Super :icon_drunk:
It prompted me to try my own versions of 9% supers and I did a really nice one (see my avatar) but I woke up one day begging in a mall with a four day growth and no knowledge of how I had got there :unsure:
Warm can of Emu bitter after lying face down in the sand for an hour in Scarborough after a night at the hippy club in the late 90's. Rolled over to see the sun rise, best mate handed me a warm can...and the rest is history.
What are best mates for huh!
