Beer

I had 2 many last night couldn't back up... that's a big thing 4 me 2!

I was drinking old tho. I love it but that shit can't b good 4 u!

I hate old! One of the few I cant stand!

Ha Ive always like that quick joke..

A man puts a box of beer into the trolley cart only for the wife to pull it out and explain why its not needed.
The couple keep walking and the Wife grabs $50 worth of makeup products etc...
The husband pulls them out and she explains, I need these to look beautiful for you everyday...
The man turns back and picks up his box...
This also does the same trick but only half the price...

HA!

Steainys 4 me...
Oh and HOT STUFF... Cant go wrong with HOTSTUFF... Well actually I think thats when things DO go wrong

steinlager pure is a great beer mj.... bit on the pricey side but amazing

So has anyone developed a taste for any new beer? Im still on the same stuff (Becks), but interested in what people like?

Do you guys like any James Squire?

I tried some James Squire when I was in Tasmania. Wasnt too bad. I can't remember the variety. golden something

It's James Squire Golden Ale.
I had about 8 Pints of it on Saturday night and felt terrible the next morning because of it.

James Squire has a new one on Tap in Darling Harbour at the moment.

Summer Lager I think.
Really crisp and light, would be great for a barbie on the beach.

Good call Azza, the pure is pretty nice. For a long time I suspected it had magical hangover preventative qualities. ie. Include a pure in your evening's drinking and you would be a box of birds the next day. I ruined that theory not long ago though. 'twas a stupid theory, but it held for a number of months!

Recently went to Prague and tried Pilsner Urquell and I enjoyed it! So when I got back to London I got some and I am enjoying it right now! Also, I really like a Spanish beer called Estrella. If you see either in a bottlo, give them a go!!

One of the Mrs clients is Coopers, They gave her a free promotional case of Coopers 62.
Haven't tried it yet but so far Coopers has done no wrong in my book.

With the 20% off sale at Woolworths liquor I've also picked up a case of Carlsberg's.

$32 - ridiculous

Had a few pints of James Squire Golden Ale last night. A fine drop.

How many in a case if you don't mind me asking (Probably a stupid question!)? YOu can routinely get 12 Carlsberg's for $20 in supermarkets here.

our cases r 24 mate... none of this 12 bullshit

Our six packs are likely $16 - $20 here.
For the amount of Beer Australians drink we're pretty ripped off.

Well it's not beer but it is alcohol. Tried this last night and it went down very nicely!
About $25 a cask.

that stuff is far too sweet.

What you mean by that is you stick to Jim beam and UDLs.
Occasionally throwing a cougar into the mix.

It's ok, we were young once too. You'll get there.

It's acceptable for bec coz she's a girl.

not UDLs.. I'm not a big drinker anyways.. Half the cunts i went to school with thought they were hard cunts cos they would drink UDLs.. hahaha

I don't get premixed drinks anyway.
You can mix yourself and make a stronger but cheaper drink.

Anyway back on topic, me and a mate went through that case of Carlsberg's I bought the other day and now I need to buy more.
I'm putting some of their kids through college I'm sure of it.

On an unrelated note I had a terrible hangover Sunday morning.

Haha, hangovers suck.

I've stopped drinking on weeknights coz I kept waking up with a dry mouth and a headache.

Me and a mate are going to 101 Beers on Saturday then on to Oakley to find the best beer brewing kit we can.
We're looking at a stainless steel kit around the $300 mark. We are going to brew some Old English style dark Ale. Nothing better.

Well, we bought the brewing kit yesterday and then some beer from 101 Beers.
The kit set us back $347, and we are hoping to start brewing within two weeks.

These are the beers I bought.




This beer is beautiful. It's a little bit bitter and very smooth. It's a dark amber colour.


I wasn't too sure about this one when I bought, but it too turned out very nice. It has a very similar taste to Duchy Original Ale (above) but is lighter, and kinda crisp for an ale.


Now this - this is the best beer I have ever tasted. This is the beer I want to brew. It is a rich Amber Ale with nice malt flavours, that are akin to Ale's I drank in London. There's a hint of chocolate/caramel in there, and a bit of a floral flavour too. It is perfectly smooth and was like drinking heaven in a glass.
