I visited Grumpys quite a few times. I remember a few mates got homebrew partial mash kits there around 20 years ago. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I knew Grumpy & the guys, I used to sell him Advertising & also buy HB products, it was a great place, now totally modernised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 (edited) Last night out with the father and brothers in-law. Very civilised system here - the father-in-law designates a daughter to drop us off at the pub and to be back to pick us (the menfolk) up at midnight. I got the stinkeye from SWMBO when it was her turn but I tried to look resigned, shrug my shoulders and say “ look, I respect your culture, and your father “ Edited April 23, 2022 by stquinto Typo 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 The pubs are into multi tasking too -this one is also the undertaker (upstairs), and at the other you can buy your petrol, a pound of bacon, and have a pint 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamus O'Sean Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Furphy Crisp Lager Spicy aroma, quite lager-y but promising. Smooth malty flavour. Low bitterness. Not mega-swill, that's for sure. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 John Boston - The Shipyard Coastal XPA Pineapple tropical aroma. Similar flavour with a malty and citrus aftertaste. Slightly higher bitterness for the style. A really nice beer for what I understand is Woolies own brand. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Tied one on last night in the bunker… feeling rougher than a gyppo’s dog today, so can’t decide between a coke or a beer. Compromise: a Kriek! 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stquinto Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 …swiftly followed by a Duvel Citra special. The Kriek at 3.5% doesn’t cut the mustard, but with the Duvel at 9.5% it evens it out 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pale Man Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 What a delicious stout. Coopers is always my goto favourite but this comes a very close second along a couple of others. S.A. brewery too. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pale Man Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 A honey beer from the same brewery. I've never made a honey beer but if I did I'd want mine to taste like this. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never made a honey beer but if I did I'd want mine to taste like this. This one looks good! I did two lots of Coopers Strawberry Blonde recipe, each with a different honey. They were not bad but my mistake was to follow the recipe and heat up the honey which destroyed lots of its delicate aromas. Also made two lots of the Sweet Nektar Kolsch with local honey from my mate. This time I stirred it in cold into room temperature wort. It turned out very nicely with the honey flavor fully present. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the same as Chinese food, if you went to China you probably wouldn't eat it, they present it differently for western tastes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
