The beer thread

[neilk]

I just ordered a case of West Coast IPAs from Mountain Culture.
16 tall boys for $160.
Worth every cent.
Life is too short to drink crap beer.

Mountain Culture are coming out with some elite brews.

Their head brewer DJ is an absolute genius

He’ll be to busy running around every Dan Murphy outlet trying to buy up all this recalled “craft beer”.

Dan Murphy’s, Liquorland and BWS urgently recall popular beer

Food Standards Australia warns the recalled product may cause illness or injury if consumed.

“Excess Alcohol”. Right up his alley!

Pot, Kettle, black, much?

Pot, Kettle, black, much?

Doesn't really apply at all

 

[Pie eyed]

They'd be fair dinkum shitting themselves!

You have to love the Aussie language.
That Shek-a-speer had been equipped with such a palette.

Don't drink the water or beer & it will be great.

Coopers beer is pretty good mate.
Best beer on the planet in my book.
Pale ale during the warmer months and Sparkling for the rest.

Yeah true but that other stuff - west end I think- is toxic.

The beer is awesome…. Coopers pale ale always goes down well but they have plenty of decent craft beers too.

Saying west end is toxic is the same as saying fosters is toxic…. It might be true but nobody drinks it anymore so it’s not really relevant.

West End cans or red tins as they call isn't that bad - it just taste the same as the CUB stuff if you ask me, which you didn't. Unfashionable though as it's seen as the cheap bogan drop.

Pirate Life is really popular and seems to be getting a fair chunk of the market in SA.

Pirate Life got bought out years ago unfortunately. Still tasty beer though.

Not sure who I'd consider Adelaide's best independent brewer. Maybe Little Bang or someone like that.

Definitely not Coopers

harsh, harsh.... coopers pretty dam good me thinks.

particularly a black and tan (half coopers stout and half coopers green).

For the price ($63 at Gisborne IGA) the Coopers XPA goes alright (purple can)

There's your problem. Not boutique and too cheap for the beer snobs.

I know it’s the bye round but stay on topic peeps, if you need to continue your beer talk then take it to the Nest here: The beer thread

I feel like that is silencing beer. As a beer identifier I feel like this is no longer a safe space.

Perfectly safe, sidey, it’s perfectly safe - you have your very own dedicated thread where you can ferment and froth away, if you wish to hop over there.

 

[windchimes]

Well I'm taking my beers out of this thread but you're not taking the beers out of me

 

[sr36]

It’s going to be a slow old week if we can’t even talk about beer in the changes thread.

It is Winter and a changes thread. Perhaps we should change from beer and move to wine.

.I bought a red today that claimed to be "partial whole berry fermentation" . Partial whole - WTF? And are grapes berries?

Maybe we should start hiding all our beer discussions in pig latin to avoid the ban hammer

Yes but perfectly good natured discussions need to stay on topic otherwise they need to take themselves off to the correct thread, where they are quite free to continue. Doesn’t quite fit into the definition of censorship now, does it?
