The Captain!! Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Is it like a triple Indian pale ale but a pils.... think I’m lost too. Did Pilsner ever get sent to India on a boat? probably going to sit on the shelf next to my Brut IPA. Thanks for the post though @Hilltop hops I love seeing what’s going on around the country.

Otto Von Blotto Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I'm sorry but it honestly just sounds like a crock of shit. Just another gimmicky brew trying to turn every style into some high ABV crap that it was never intended to be. Why don't they try a triple ESB while they're at it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerlust Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 The Scots would say the ESB is a watered down Wee Heavy & that anything good in England was pinched from Scotland anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hilltop hops Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Hi all, To be honest I didn't read it properly and thought it was a triple ipa. Got home and had another look and thought wtf is a triple pilsner! Anyway its created some interesting conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Captain!! Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Got a few of these to watch the footy with today. This is a sensational example of an IPA. Do yourselves a favour and have a swill. Captain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silmaril Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 When I was in the USA last year, had some amazing IPAs, including a Sierra Nevada version. Dan's sell one, but it just wasn't the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilltop hops Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Just cracked this one. James Squire Strong Ale. Tastes like vintage ale. No idea how old it is. Anyone know when this was released? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RepSpec Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 spent the day yesterday at Mornington Peninsula brewery and had a great day with my best mates. Had: Pale ale Larger IPA Galaxy Pash (Galaxy sour) Hamfish Brut IPA The pale, Larger and IPA are all great beers. The Galaxy Pash is a sour beer and what a ripper it was/is. Im a huge fan of their Brain squeeze which is a Lemon sour and a cracker also. The Hamfish...eh . Can say i wasnt huge fan. It was very Saison(ish) in its yeasty flavour. Very dry finish. Im thinking the yeasty, phenolicy flavours would put a lot of people off who dont like that type of flavours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joolbag Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 @porschemad911 I did a day trip to your hometown today to see Floriade with my dad and my daughter. Was nice the three generations being there walking around Commonwealth Park. Last time I went to Floriade was with my dad about 23 years ago! Anyhoo, on the way out I saw a stand/stall promoting Canberra and big sign with CRAFT BEER. The usual Canberra suspects and I checked the bottom of the cans and they don't get much fresher. Packaged between 21/8 and 11/9. So I bought a mixed six to enjoy over the long weekend. Haven't tried the Pact before. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oooh nice, can't go wrong with any of those! Now if only Bentspoke had had their limited canned release of Cluster 8 available ... I'll be off to Floriade on Monday with my wife, sister and little boy. Will be a welcome bit of relaxation after a weekend of on-call software release support work. I've been many times, with many different relatives and family members. Always some nice memories! I just have to remember to wear a pair of nice leather boots that need polishing ... then wander by that stall selling the beewax leather conditioner for a sample Hope you enjoyed your time in the nation's capital!

The Captain!! Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Well it’s friday night for me. Couple of the local pales and IPAs tonight. The pale is actually for obnoxious than the IPA. I prefer the IPA as it’s more flavourful but because it’s got some crystal in there it’s mellowed the 60 odd Ibus. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer Baron Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I tried these 3 yesterday. I wont be brewing a NEIPA anytime soon. I really don’t know what all the fuss is about. The IPA was nice and the black was alright. Thats about as fancy and technical as my reviews get. Beer Baron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither do I mate. A mate brought a squealer of a red NEIPA around on Sunday from a local brewery. It was nice but nothing you'd rave about, the yeast haze is off putting, assuming it's yeast.. whatever it is it's off putting. I don't worry about a bit of cloudiness but when it starts looking like vegetable soup that's just... no. Besides, IPAs are supposed to be bitter, not fruit juice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Captain!! Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I feel the same, I’ve tried to give it a crack and tried numerous NEIPA’s. Some local ones and some ones that are supposed to be the ducks nuts, but for my tastes they have fallen short. Im not saying they aren’t drinkable just not something that I’d go out of my way to get my hands on some. Kinda like the Brut I just brewed.

Beer Baron Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I was going to expand my setup from the current 2 taps to 4 but I don’t drink a heap and I’m not a big fan of a lot of the styles so at this point in time I’ll just keep 2. 1 tap for a lager and the other for a pale ale or IPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silmaril Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Visited Dan's today while in the big smoke, and they have an impressive collection! I picked up some WA Gage Roads Little Dove, and 4 each of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Torpedo Extra IPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Captain!! Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 @Silmaril The little dove is a pretty good beer. I think anyone will be impressed with that big boy. I must say that I’m a fan of the SN Pale. I’d love to try it in the US. As I feel by the time it’s got here it may be loosing some hop punch. They really do know their beer at SN. Great bitter punch and a very nice flavour and aroma that showcases cascade very well. Big thumbs up for your choices however if you haven’t tried it before, the Bridge Road Saison is a splendid version of a Saison 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was great! I've only tried one Saison to date, which was the Two Birds version. Wasn't a huge fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
