Aussiekraut Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 (edited) Junkyard Giant by Aether Brewing. A Red Rye IPA, aged for 6 months in oak barrels, blended with a 14 month barrel aged barley wine. This is one nice beer. Hints of oak and fruit, a decent hit of hops, smooth sweet and at 9.3% abv, rather strong. Love it but one is enough.

Not that it matters anyway, everyone can do what they like. I found beer doesn't go very well with bacon & eggs many moons ago It’s the wrong GF though. I’m not into watching guys in singlets and skimpy shorts getting points for missing the goal If people can have Nutella with bacon and chocolate coated bacon, then beer sure AF will go with it As for eggs, just make them into Advokaat and it is a great match with beer. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just came home from a Korean BBQ lunch ( yummy) and now I will have my first beer, a home made Munich Dark . I am not really an AFL person, I like the round ball game. But being a Sydney sider “ GO SWANS” Yeah, no booze at work but this 11am rule is a silly social convention. There is no logical reason not to have a beer at 10, 9 or whenever one feels like it 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never used to work while I was drinking either but a lot of my business was dealing with Publicans, need I say anymore. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Classic Brewing Co Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Today an Ale from the Vale, absolutely beautiful, lovely & clear for a Pale Ale & has a very fresh, well-balanced taste with a nice hop presence. I have had this before & will be buying it again. QUOTE: An Australian Pale Ale with a refreshing balance of malt, hops and yeast characters. Hop additions of Amarillo and Cascade give a wonderful fresh crisp finish with lingering flavours of citrus, passionfruit and peaches. The hop flavours and aromas are matched beautifully with the sweet honey finish from crystal malt. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brauhaus Fritz Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 The Swans are getting hammered and I enjoy a Spaten out of a Spaten Stein. The 11 o’clock rule is just for me to keep me disciplined. When I was a friend of the green stuff I was known to have a drag before my morning coffee, and these days I have my first coffee at 3.45am. So the 11 am rule is just for me and no social constrain mans the beer was goood 6 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussiekraut Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Written in the Stars by Aether Brewing. This one is interesting, a Sour Boysenberry DIPA. Sour, hoppy, sweet, fruity and what a colour 40IBU and 8.8% abv. Very nice. Very nice indeed 8 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stquinto Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Tasty cherry Kriek, with wild yeast (lambic). Went over the border to France yesterday, had them on offer : 6 stubbies for 6.60€, or 3 longnecks for 7.40€ 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brauhaus Fritz Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 I honestly was a little bit disappointed by this one. It’s is nice and cloudy and thick, how a Kellerbier should be, but it’s lacking some more complex flavours. Saying this it is a really good beer but I definitely prefer the Weihenstephaner Kellerbier. I would get it again if Ian in need of a flip top bottle 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Last night's German offerings. Augustiner Munich Pils Herbal aroma with a hint of spice. Crisp and refreshing taste. Good bitterness and strong malt flavour. Giesinger Munique Heller Bock Subtle fruity aroma. Strong complex flavour and matched bitterness. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popo the Reprobate Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Found another nice fencepost. It's been a while since I've had a PL IPA. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brauhaus Fritz Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Clean, smooth and bittersweet. I really love it. My try of a Munich Helles didn’t even get close to it, I am just amazed how clear it is, and still but yet perfectly carbonated.I really like their beers, have a few more to try. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah German Beers are great especially the Weihenstephaner range & others of course. I have some in the fridge, don't know why I am saving them, maybe it is time to break them out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My team is Hertha BSC who somehow always avoids relegation with a really strong squad. I might have to swop alliance to the metalworker team from the former Arbeiter und Bauern State, Union Berlin.
