There are apparently a few places where one can get better beer. I have had that before & thought it was a bit ho-hum, there are supposed to be some Aussie style Pubs/drinking holes over there AK so you may find something better, my mate the Pilot has told me about them not that he can do much drinking in a 24-hour stopover. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I was in the Woolworths complex down at the Bay this morning & spotted these on special at the BWS, normally 4 x pack $21.00 but the last for were only $12.00. CRONY PALE ALE 4.4% ABV It's not bad, brewed in Victoria for Pinnacle Drinks so obviously it's not going to be available everywhere. I don't think I would rush out & buy it again really. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 My neighbour just gave me this, she said it was for giving her beers when she comes around, maybe I need to brew more It was a very nice gesture so that it is all that matters. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I need it for medicinal purposes it will always be close on hand. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just that extra ABV and colour but I've seen you drinking beers @ 7% this must be just a breakfast beer? lol don't know you well mate just jokes all your brews look like crackers. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stquinto Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) Last pint in the UK. A Guinness in the airport (well, actually three, I was getting the train home…) This was the old fella’s place in Dorset, lovely spot, sh*tty weather, but just right for a big fire and some hearty grub. What else would you expect in England? Nice to talk to the old bloke about his life in the old days: he appreciated the company and the grub, and we appreciated his yarns and his company too. I even brought a t-bone back with me Edited November 28, 2022 by stquinto Added photo 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes they were $21 a 4 pack it's a bit steep. That was just from a bottle shop near the motel. I'm not sure if the same or cheaper if went to the brewery.

Uhtred Of Beddanburg Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 (edited) @Pezzza yes I plan on brewing a nice hoppy XPA style soon. The brewery was dormant while I was in the capital and on the coast. Then again i was not home drinking the stock already made so even steven i suppose. 96 for carton cheaper than by 4 pack but also like you said so is making our own Edited November 28, 2022 by Uhtred Of Beddanburg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popo the Reprobate Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 A few from the last little while. I'll have to get a glass one of these days. Modus Pale. This one was close to use by. Still a good beer. Young Henry's Motorcycle Oil - a Hoppy porter @ 5.5%. I really liked this one. As it says, a delicious hoppy porter. Hopped with Chinook, Centennial, Cascade and Citra. I get the first 3 but didn't really pick up the Citra. Still, would highly recommend if hoppy porter sounds like your thing. 4 Pines Ultra Low. Surprisingly good. Reasonable amount of flavour for a zero alc beer. Had this one at a staff meeting - no real beer allowed. Definitely a low alc beer but would buy again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
