Checked out Ripple. Busy af but expected being opening night.

Rate the venue. Raspberry Sour and their standard IPA both good drops. Food good too. Not sure if its a different van each day or not.

Cant comment on Hazys but they have a couple. Hazy beers dont agree with me .uch these days.

Any of you guys been to or frequent Masto's wine bar in Freo? Every time I come back to Perth I go, honestly its one of my favourite venues of all time.

Yeah place is class.

The nights they have a winery in is good value. Get plenty of drinks and food for not much $$$.

Go there a lot in general too.

Slightly hard to gauge with how busy it is. Indoors is a good size. Took a bit but did get a table. Lot more room than Otherside Brewhouse for example.

Outdoors probably could of been a bit bigger.

Might try and get in early when I go to get a table early

I'm interested to try some of their own wines, particularly the white blend, red blend, and malbec. Bruce Dukes is the winemaker for a lot of them which is generally a good sign

When you slash your hourly rate, you’re bound to find a few more clients

Smashed a few of these the other day. I was already flying after having a few 6% pints of hazy’s but I was wrecked by the time I realised these were 9%.

Mates were drinking em cause they used to drink it when they were in the Netherlands but I actually can’t remember drinking a beer that strong that didn’t taste like pure alcohol.

The Duvel tulip glasses are the best beer glasses as well.

Went to beerfest and quite frankly only tried one beer from most of the stalls. Got quite drunk but I just didn’t have many that I felt were exceptional. The Neipa from Impi was defs the one I least liked(borderline couldn’t finish it). Red Ipa from margs brewing defs my fave of the day but I’ve had it before.

Overall I just don’t feel that adventurous with beer anymore. Ipa’s and pales seem to be consistent but all the other stuff seem very hit n miss
