It comes from the old days, when church finished on Sunday morning and the women went home to cook the Sunday roast, while the men went to the pub for a beer or five. Granddad often took me to the pub on sat or sun morning 10 or 10:30 is a perfectly good time to start hitting the sauce Best to wait for double figures, I'm with you on that 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prost I didnt find it over hoppy @CLASSIC, malt was definitely there, but very nice and sessionable. Yeah i agree with ya..........i'm a massive fan of German and Belgians. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But at the end of the day there is only thing wrong worse than a bad beer - no beer !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shamus O'Sean Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 James Squire - Broken Shackles Lager - Giving it a try because of recommendations on the Forum, not because of JS's good marketing. Strong malty aroma with some floral hop aroma Pretty flavoursome lager. Balance leans towards the bitter side. Nice. How do they get the flavour in without changing the colour? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamus O'Sean Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Coopers - Best Extra Stout 440ml can - Why? It does not taste any better. Just more of it. Hang on, I think I am getting it. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang on, I think I am getting it. Still one of my favourite Stouts @Shamus O'Sean the recent 440ml promo on the Coopers Pale Ale was welcomed & I am tempted to grab a slab of these but cost wise I reckon I could do better with product as I am very happy with my current stout albeit running out fast.

Tone boy Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Good winter brew. Nice malty flavour, and is that EKG I’m getting on the aroma? Not bitter at the finish at all. It looks dark in the photo, but with a light behind it, it’s quite red.. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussiekraut Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) Got myself one of these from uncle Dan’s. A six pack of exclusive GABS beers. It sounded interesting, so I bit the $35 bullet. This is part one because there are some high ABV beers in there and if I drink them all, I’d have to go to bed at 8 in order to get out of bed at 5:30 The first I tried was Wanderlust, a hazy IPA from Mountain Culture Brewing. Nice and Juicy, not uber hoppy and the 7% abv are nicely masked. I quite like it, despite not being a big fan of hazies. Next up, Maple Banana Split Your Pants Beer from Urban Alley Brewing. A Dunkel Weizen with extra goodies. When you open the can, you get a distinct banana aroma, which isn’t as strong when you drink it. Tastes like a dunkel Weizen should but it is a little bit more sour in the aftertaste than it should be. Maybe a bit more maltiness would have helped. It feels a little thin. It’s not bad but I’ve had better. Last for the day is the Sundae Beer from Sealegs Brewing. Coming in at 7.6%, it’s the strongest beer for the day. This one was actually the main reason I bought the box but it let me down. I expected a nice sweet, chocolaty, fruity, creamy beer, reminiscent of a chocolate bar or a Sundae as the name suggests but I was wrong and got this, despite shaking the can and doing a hard vertical pour. Got a bit of head to start with but within 30 seconds, it was all gone, no sign of the “nitro foam” promised. It smells and tastes chocolaty, I can taste raspberry and a hint of strawberry and coffee. I think it would have worked better as a porter or a stout. Not sure what the style is supposed to be but it looks like flat mud. I’m rather disappointed to be honest. That’s it for today, part 2 will follow on Saturday I suppose, so stay tuned.
