They are pretty decent glasses too. Skål Hahaha, add it to the other 576 glasses you have Phil. Good drop hey and I agree, great glass.

Classic Brewing Co Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 And now for something full of flavour, this is fast becoming one of my favourites, I have an All-Grain kit to knock up so I must hop to it. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you get all grain kits for the Cooper's beers Phil? I've only seen extracts and the small packs of specialty grains in the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not actually a Coopers recipe; I didn't want to promote the brand on this site for obvious reasons, but it will be very similar. There are a few Coopers ingredients, grain etc. but a bit of a mixed bag. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamus O'Sean Posted September 14, 2023 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Sure Brewing - 300% Dynamight Red IPA Strong citrus and caramel aromas Robust bitterness and strong complex malt flavours Very nice 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kegory Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 Hawkers Experimental Series: Trio of Dips Basically it's the same beer, the point of difference between the three is where the Cascade hops were grown: New Zealand; the United Kingdom; the United States. This is a serious test of my beers assessment skills. I can barely separate the UK & US versions (if I didn't know they were different I doubt I could tell) but the NZ version tastes and smells slightly more fruitier to me though I still think I'd struggle in a blind test. Visually there is a noticeable difference in head retention and lacing which I wasn't expecting. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted September 15, 2023 Share Posted September 15, 2023 2 Brothers - Big Day STout Traditional stout aroma - roasted malts Rich roasted flavours, no real coffee, no real chocolate, Just a good ole honest strong stout.

Kegory Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Moon Dog Splice of Heaven Raspberry Ice Cream IPA. Not one I'd buy again even at the $5 I paid for the four pack. Still, it's not the worst beer I've had this year. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegory Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Hawkers Pale Ale An American West Coast style pale ale, citrus and pine. Better, IMO, than the Raspberry Ice Cream IPA but not as good as @Hilltop hops Pirate Life Pale Ale which, IIRC, is similar but more. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Bonehead Brewing - Berried Alive Again - Mixed Berry & Vanilla Sour Strong berry aroma, with a hint of sour Vanilla forward flavour with a malty middle and a sour finish plus a floral aftertaste No bitterness to speak of Yummy 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popo the Reprobate Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 BBQ and a stout. Little Creatures - Stout King 6%. Not bad at all. Tastes like stout. $14 for 4. From the can: Our latest rye stout pairs complexity with drinkability… no tricks, no spins… just great, straight-up stout, just as it should be. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find craft breweries are good for that. Drink a couple on tap and know you will pay a lot but a day out. Some even do food. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegory Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Modelo Cerveza Negra It's been a long time since I've had one of these, decades probably. It was the first dark Lager I ever had, way back in the late 80's at Cha Chi's Mexican Restaurant on Nicholson St in Carlton. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegory Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Akasha Project Feelin' Vine Mudgee Grape Pale Ale Some years ago I tried a Shiraz infused/flavoured beer (Pepper jack, I think). I had my doubts which were confirmed. This one's a variety of white (not my forte and difficult to read). This one works a bit better but it's still not my bag. I'm not Robinson Crusoe here, I picked it out of the bargain bin. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 JOHN BOSTON COASTAL XPA For the price it's hard to complain about this, definitely lacking body but nicely hopped with a pleasant bitterness. One keg blew yesterday & another is close, so I am just marking time until I can keg the new brew with a few takeaway specials. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
