I was at this brewery last weekend and when they kicked us out at the end of the night, I had to buy some travellers.

8 Track Brewery - Dankenstein Double IPA

  • Lovely citrus and piney herbal aroma
  • Strong malt flavours with fruit hints
  • Robust dankness and bitterness
  • Exactly as it says on the label - A bit of a sipper

Shamus,  Any real decent beers to get stuck into like  a bueatiful oat cream dipa    or big stouts  on tap while you was there

me and my mate and his wife may venture to it someday soon  as it doesnt look to far from the railway station

Nothing overly big Ozzie.

Our favourites were a Ginger Stout and their Cosmic Cloud Hazy IPA.  I also liked their American Lager as a palate cleanser.

Heatherdale Railway Station is literally across the road.  Very handy.  It was my transport mode of choice.

Dankenstein Double IPA

@Shamus O'Sean, I love the name of this beer! I hope you and others can tell me a bit more what 'dank' as a hop flavour means? I have some Amarillo and Galaxy hops on hand.  The Beer Maverick hop comparison tool says both these hops have a 'dank' element.

This may help Jenny.

"Dank" seems to mean piney/resiney, dank like a pine forest as far as I can work out.

Kuan Light Pale Ale by Birdy Num Nums at Fin Bar

It's not bad, light, yes, and a little hoppy.

I also tried a Wheat for a While, a hefeweizen by The German Brewery but it didn't impress me.
