Some of the craft pubs have them but I haven't seen a pedal type anywhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised you haven't seen it in the car park of the former Lenny's Tavern, Glenelg. I think the pub's called Watermark or Waterfront these days. You'll also see a couple of them on the city streets of Adelaide on warmer nights. I think they're branded Handle Bar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is called the Watermark, the old cart hasn't been there for years, it ended up perched on a roof for a few years but long gone now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iBooz2 Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) Thought I had better try a real Theakston Old Perculier Ale before I try and clone it. I know this brew has it own thread here but after all this is a tasting thread so here it is. Unfortunately I did not have an appropriate glass so a DAB had to fill the void.

I know this brew has it own thread here but after all this is a tasting thread so here it is. Unfortunately I did not have an appropriate glass so a DAB had to fill the void. After an evenings taste test I thought this TOP ale was very close to my AG version of Tooheys Old (AKA Darth Vader Beer) and in comparison the TOP is not quite as dark (EBC) and the chocolate malt flavour is less in the TOP and perhaps the TOP is a little more peppery (sharpness/spicy/astringency), if that is the right taste terminology. They are about the same bitterness ratio when compared to ABV so I reckon should be pretty easy to design a recipe to clone TOP.

I didn't even know that was a thing as I've only ever seen the stubbies! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @iBooz2 said earlier if you remove the 'img' from both sides it works, I did the let hand side one first time but then I realised there was one on the right as well. Sometimes it pays to check on your links because if they are not working there is a button on the RH side at the top which says more options - you are able to edit your post & re-post with the right attachment/link. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I'll keep an eye out in the future. Before the upgrade, you could use BBCode links but now it doesn't seem to like them. Blowed if I could find the image button in the editor menu from my phone, either. I don't even see one now while using a PC. I guess they canned it in the "upgrade". But, we have two Giphy buttons with one that doesn't work. Full disclosure - I really, really dislike Invision forum software. Always have, and nothing they do seems to change my mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic Brewing Co Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 I had to go past Dan Murphy's this morning on the way back from the LBHS so I called in from a few bottles of wine & decided to try this Tui - East India Pale Ale, at first taste I wasn't impressed, it is very underwhelming, 2nd taste doesn't get any better but $14.00 for a 6 pack - what can you expect ? I finished the bottle & I am reminded why we make our own beer. I will never buy it again !! Quote: Product detailsNot a typical IPA more of a lager style but a nice beer none the less. A sweet fruity aroma with a hint of malt and on the palate a sweet malt flavour and a toffee caramel taste. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
