The Fez Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 Beer drinkin' weather alright. Reminds me of drinking beer in Singapore. Cold beer on tap, a chilled jug filled with said icy cold Tiger, the chilled jug then placed into a ice slurry in a bucket. By gee, shes hot and humid up there -- Beer drinkin country alright.. 2

The Fez Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 For sure - Yep had a few very cold Spearhead Pales, going down very easy. Never drink after eating - reminds me of that Sinatra monologue on the "Sinatra at the Sands" record -- "Dean (Martin) has a strict rule, there is no drinking after dinner, we eat at 3am, but there aint no drinkin' after dinner!" 3

crisis Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 I am seriously gobbling this down at a far to greater rate. Delicious. 3

Darren69 Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Well after bashing the Yanks beer making skills (or lack of) up until now, I must say I am a huge fan of anything Ballas Point. This is an excellent PA!!- https://www.danmurphys.com.au/product/DM_500388/ballast-point-grunion-pale-ale-can-355ml?orgSearchTerm=grunion Got that beautiful fresh hoppy taste and a nice 5.5% alcohol level. They make a ton of IPA's. https://www.ballastpoint.com/ As mentioned elsewhere, their Sculpin IPA is also excellent, along with Sierra Nevada's 'Torpedo' in pint cans. 1

The Yanks can make a decent beer except when they use adjunct ingredients. They cut corners in the pursuit of savings and you end up with something like Budweiser.

blybo Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 33 here this arvo so a couple of these going down well. The hop tart was too sour for my liking but the splice heaven was really nice with only a slight taste of fruitiness. At 6.8 it packs quite a wallop Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2
mtf Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Well this is a very delicious drop on this lovely warm day in Perth. Very smooth and the Tropical title is quite apt, there are some amazing flavours going on here Shes not a cheap drop at $50 for 4 pints but she's a ripper. I have a few Danish brand speakers for my ears and now this for my taste buds, DEJLIGE! ( I hope my translation app is right with that ) 2
mtf Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Hi @betocool I got this at Celebrations in Carlisle. It was purchased over 3 weeks ago before I went away for last swing,not sure if it's still available but will be driving back there tomorrow with this empty growler to get a refill of some kind of wonderful Really great store, worth a look if you get a chance.
Darren69 Posted March 1, 2017 Posted March 1, 2017 Make no mistake, the cascades and Boags in Tassie is bloody good, am sure you guys keep the good stuff down there. Enjoyed a few Wizard Smiths (?) when I was down there! Am contemplating a few Torpedoes on the way home this arvo but haven't been drinking all week since the Animals As Leaders concert last weekend in Brissy and just feel so good so don't want to cruel it, haha!!
