There's always a bloke at the bar who says, 'that's the best part!'

Shudder

I find West End ok if you like to chew thru your beer

Not knowing your beer preference it's hard to follow that comment

Obviously not a fan of West End and Pale Ale

New at Dan's, anybody tried this one?

liked for (presumably) being a lefty.

 

[MatthewB]

Mind you have drank my fair share when planted my face in The Murray water skiing

it was my beer of choice when i went wakeboarding aswell

knocked off about 3 cartons over a Easter weekend on a houseboat one year

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Grabbed a bottle of this on my honeymoon a few years back, if I knew back then overseas travel would disappear I would have bought more! The price Dan's want for it I could have got four! Very nice rum even my wife would get stuck into it.

Some pubs in Adelaide have been open the last couple of years on Good Friday, right?

Surely they will be this year with us playing at Adelaide Oval that night.

been drinking Miller chilled over summer, very refreshing and not too heavy, usually drink Pales or Kilkenny during winter, going through a botlle of Laphroaig single malt at the moment, it goes down well

Good man. The 10yo?

certainly is, would love to try the 25yo but a little pricey

I guess it depends on the allowed crowd capacity at AO being high enough to make it worth their while opening for it? Full capacity you'd think they would, if it's only half or less - would it still be viable for them if they're having to pay the penalty rates etc?

crowds upto 40k will be allowed at this stage

Yeah, but the key bit there is "at this stage". Given the way things have gone over the past 12 months, I won't be taking anything for granted until we're actually sitting there in our seats. And I imagine it would be difficult for the surrounding venues to plan ahead with much confidence either.

700 for the bottle is steep. You could try a nip of it somewhere, but it would be a good $70 still.
I had the 13yo released by that boutique-y whisky company. It was totally amazing.

That's Coopers Pale Ale, particularly from a bottle, or if you're unlucky enough to snag the bottom of the keg

Bottoms aren't always milky like that, it's the best drinking ever though. Hard to leave when they're pouring like that.

Of course it's a mid ale though, the 7th-12th of beers.

“During early conversations with Ewan, we discovered they have never developed a mid-strength ale before,” Silvers said.
“It felt like the perfect product for us as a Club to collaborate with them on."

Bought a carton it'll probably be crap but we shall see I like Mismatch's lager.

The Crows 78 degree gin is where it’s at. Awesome label and a very good gin, can’t go wrong!

Is that a hint of apricot slice I taste? We drink a lot of gin but I really couldn't bring myself to buy a bottle with a football club logo. But then again, it might annoy the Port supporting missus, where did you say they were stocked?

The most worrying thing is you have a missus that goes for Port.

she didn't follow the sport at all before we met. Her support of Port was acquired during our relationship. Heavens knows why.
