Is the Breakwater PA that Gage roads do any good?

Apart from Little Dove and single fin, I’m not really a huge fan.

It's okay. Not great.

Jim Beam genuinely tastes like arse. Whats a decent cheap bourbon?

Depends what you consider cheap. Jim Beam is near the floor price for spirits in excise alone.

You can get some amazing stuff for under $60. Woodford Reserve, Buffalo Trace and George Dickel are all fantastic.

Not cheap, but at less than $100 and drinks as well as some really high tier stuff, Eagle Rare 10yr Old is definitely worth a look when you feel like lashing out.

Depends if he's mixing it though. If so I wouldn't bother with much better than Jack Daniels or Makers Mark.

That and a 4 pack of VPA got me going on sat. Regretted not buying more as I was left with bumming single fins and Elsie’s after that.

Yeah but do you like nose beers like me and DanWCE?

DanWCE and I

 

[squashface]

DanWCE and I

DanWCE and me is the correct grammar there.

The trick is you take out the ‘DanWCE and’ and of it still makes sense then you have it right.

Had to try a bit of Willie. Uses the name in vain. Solid 6.

I'm not saying anyone is a jerk for correcting grammar, but science is!

Wife got a Dan Murphy's voucher as a work gift so went down to spend it, haven't been in over a year - damn they've vastly improved their beer range.

Yep, they've cottoned onto the craft beer (and cider) market. Them along with Liquor Shed in Jandakot and that place on Great Eastern Highway all have great Beer and Cider selections.

Liquor Shed has a lot of stuff from down south and more European beers than any other place I've seen so for those who like that disgusting euro stuff this is your place

yeah pretty sure they take 20% off if you get 4 cans as well.

Their craft beer section used to be Gage Roads, Feral and Pirate Life. Grabbed a 6 pack of Kaiju Krush for $22 - pretty happy with that. Makes me want to pop by your place and push some stools in.

My stools are currently in a liquid state. So I’m not sure about that.
