I tasted it BYB, didnt pay for it. Didnt even finish the tasting glass!

This sort of shit annoys me as it gives HBers a bad image. Last thing we need is someone commercialising the crap our parents generation was brewing in the 80s.....
 
I got a big kick out of "Lovely Valley Beverage Co". Funny stuff. :)
Beer - Stout - Brewery - Water - Lager
They have water too!

And here's the "brewery"

OK you have convinced me to confirm what you have said. I will fire up the Trump and head down there when the weather warms up. Then head down to the Steam Exchange Brewery at Goolwa straight after.

BYB

Um, I may be wrong, but aren't fluro lights supposed to be a no-no around fermenters? I hope they only turn it on for photo shoots.

I'm sure that's not the only thing they're doing wrong. I bet they had to cart all the liquid malt extract and sugar containers out of the photo ;)

This place is the equivalent of a bakery using those little bread machines for production.
 
While I stand by the fact this place is a hole,
I dont think it is thier setup that is the problem, I think the place is an old relic of the co-operative dairying industry in SA

It would be possible for them to make decent beer in the facitlity, its their lack of knowledge, skill etc that is the problem,

Alot of the equipment I saw thiere 5 years or so ago, looked alot like the early days of the AleSmith brewery in SanDiago,
 
At least in SA you can set up something like this, and do it as well or as badly as you want.

I fear that here in NSW you'd have to fell several major forests just for the paperwork.

So would they need a liquor license to do this? IE produce homebrew in commerical quantities for sale?
 
The worst beer I've ever had would have to be Millers Chill. Ewwwww :eek: it was revolting!!
I drank 3 mouthfulls and tipped the rest of the bottle down the sink!!
then I took the other 5 beers back to the shop and swapped them for something else.

what were you thinking?
 
Can't be bothered reading 21 pages .. Carlton Draught, followed closely by Carlton Dry. Rubbish beers.
 
Carlton Dry easily. It tasted like fizzy sugary water with some other weird flavor thrown in for good measure. Bloody awful shit. I ended up moving to Carlton Draught that night, which was better. At least it tasted more balanced.

Yes, the options were very limited on that occasion...
