The Friday Night 6 Pack Session

Recommended Posts

Picked up a 6 pack of Newstead Two to the Valley IPA last weekend to get through the week before the next two kegs end up on tap. Cloudy but very nice beer. Fruity as hell. Gonna have to go check out their new Milton brewpub thingy, which is only just down the road from Castlemaine Perkins at the other end of the same street ?

Had a few Liberty Ales tonight. This is awesome. Pale Ale malt and Cascade SMASH. 

The aroma on this took me back to the first time I fell in love with beer. Very reminiscent of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale. Cascade is a very underrated Hop in today's age IMHO.

Cheers,

I agree, I have always liked this beer. Sometimes simple is great.

I prefer this to the steam beer.

You should ring 'em Kelsey & offer a few tips on how to clarify the beer! ? ?

Maybe some tips on how to not over carbonate it would be better ?. Bloody would pour a glass and ensure there was hardly any foaming, let it sit a couple of minutes and the head grew quite substantially. It wasn't all bad though, by the time the head settled it had warmed slightly and lost a bit of that carbonation so it ended up being real nice. I suspect the clarity is largely due to the hopping, even I can't clear my really hoppy ales completely ?

@The Captain1525230099, @Rowbrew, @Gully85 Sorry to hear your misfortunes  ?

Lately I've been getting into NZ/New world Pilsners. They are really hitting the spot. I appreciate the traditional pils, but these are ace! 

Tonight I've had;

My mate came up with a good recipe idea, " Flu Saison" Lemon and Honey Saison infused with Eucalyptus leaves. Dunno if i will get around to brewing it though

a beer to drink whilst recovering? outstanding idea.  maybe add garlic and peppermint to help the throat? 

or am I taking it to far

Love a good NZ Pils. Not a fan of standard pils but love a hopped up nz pils.

One of the many things the kiwis have got right.

Kelsey I had a weekend up in brissie recently for a boys trip with the in(out)laws. We had a few at Newstead before heading over the road for a game both Friday and Saturday nights. Was a bloody good spot and the beers were on point. They had an oatmeal session beer which was really crisp and fruity and went down really well. That IPA u just bought was on tap there as well, good drop. Get down there the place was pumping. Pizzas everywhere too ?
