kmar92 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I didn't know what to expect with this - Delirium Argentum. Has hints of caramel but balanced with a solid bitterness, especially on the aftertaste. Quite spicy. 6/10. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmar92 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Another Belgian Trappist beer. Not sure if I like this one, quite complex tastes and bitterness. A little astringent though, almost like a huge ABV, but as far as Belgian Trappists go quite medium at 6.2%ABV. 5/10. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stquinto Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 Anarchy Ale. Beautiful drop. These KnK recipes are blinders really Obvs still on the AG but nice to keep up the stocks if you don’t have enough time… I have to get round to kegging a Battleship Bitter, an AG COPA and an Ashes Ale, they’ve been cc for 3 weeks 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, not quite, but it’s up there.. I admit it takes a bit of getting used to. But persevere though, it’ll be worth it. I have a slab in the cellar untouched, there was a scare around that they’d run out, so I panic-bought. Some people bought bog roll and pasta during Covid, well, I bought beer Admittedly not a session beer The bottles are the best if ever you need to bottle a keeper though, really heavy 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “standard” Delirium Tremens is a Strong Blond, decent enough but not a patch on Duvel IMHO. I got a Christmas pack of three or four different ones because there was a nice glass with an elephant’s trunk as the stem (probably posted it somewhere) but some of the brews were a bit iffy. I think I even have a couple left over: note to self - fob off onto neighbours 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brauhaus Fritz Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 (edited) That’s what I call a bargain. Got myself a case of Henninger Lager which brought it down to $3.60 for a 660ml bottle of good old school German Lager. I really like it. And I might use the bottles for my Ginger beer I have in the fermenter right now Edited May 10, 2023 by Brauhaus Fritz 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairns was very quiet for this time of year IMO. I think they have not recovered from C19 times yet as the rubber necks were very thin on the ground and still a lot of shops empty or closed up. The place was way too quite if you ask me. Cruise ship passengers entering a port/harbour town are not really what the local traders in shops want. I was in Hobart some time back and in a store browsing when the owners suddenly shut and locked the doors and turned all main lights off, this is with a few of us customers inside. I asked him what was going on and he said they just got word the "cruisers" were about to come up his street. I would have thought he would want dozens if not hundreds of people coming into his shop. No way, he said, they never buy anything as they can get everything they want on board the cruise ship duty free and gst free so the cruisers think the traders are trying to rip people off and turn their wallets away from the local traders. When the cruise mob passed by his closed store and moved on he reopened the doors again and things returned to normal.

Nice little spot would have loved to hang around and try out some of their tucker too. They open at 3pm on Mondays. Just have to say that my Outback Pub Lager blows this one off the beach. Mine is much better flavour wise and aroma wise plus it has a head. The Coral Sea's lager was way under-carbed, probably made to smash down quickly in the tropical heat. It was refreshing enough but I'm so glad to be back on my own crisp lager. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
