Wazza_wantsbeer Posted November 14, 2021 Report Share Posted November 14, 2021 Hey all, been a craft beer wanker for way, way too many years. Post NSW lockdown, caught up with a great mate who I haven't seen for 18 weeks, way too many beers. The idea is when we catch up, we bring different craft beers, the rarer and the better is demanded. We then taste all the various beers as long as we can. This is the past Friday night's tasting lineup. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at Big Shed this afternoon and had their "Number of the Yeast 666" Belgian IPA and Boozy Fruit (in your photo) which is an all time favourite. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hambone Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 This one is a special release by Black Hops to First Choice and other Coles owned outlets. It is bloody amazing. Not cheap, but fantastic balance and very tropical hop forward flavours. Get on it if you can. Cheers 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do enjoy Dainton beers, been there a few times as it was within walking distance from a great mate who lives in Melbourne and I visit him often. Going to BWS, Dainton Jungle Juice and their Orange Rye NEIPA are staples. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Frothman Posted March 18, 2022 Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 3 beers on tap at home … not enough for the boss it would seem 🙄 … so a quick beer at one of the locals before dinner. One for @Wazza_wantsbeer … Nordic Hazy IPA, one of Shapeshifter’s first from back when they were gypsy brewing at Big Shed. I think still it’s one their best. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazza_wantsbeer Posted March 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2022 Holy crap that looks amazing. Will look to see if I can get that here in Sydney. Enjoy the dinner with the wife 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benoz Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 If you get a chance try Rocky Ridge Nightman or its sister beer Dayman. They are basically the same beer with different hops and are both absolutely delicious! Even my beer hating sister liked it! When I asked Rocky Ridge they sent me the recipe - watch this space... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mustn’t miss out on Garage Projects “Double F- you, 2021” … simply sublime and inspiration in a can…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gillies Brewing Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 I got a Beer Cartel Mixed 24 pack of clearance beers for myself for Easter, so I might have a few to post here over the next while As soon as I unpacked them I saw the Czech 1-2 and thought of @Rob Courtney Supposedly its a Bohemian Style Pilsner with "100% Saaz LupoMAX® Enriched Hop Pellets" which I think is like some proprietary Cryo hops or something. Anyway, it's tasty. Beautiful head, nice texture, clear flavour and a bit more bitter than I expected (must be those special hops). I need to order a Bohemian Lager in the next batch I've also had a Balter Easy Hazy (the orange one) from the pack, which smelt great and tasted like nothing, so I can see why they were in the Clearance box... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Frothman Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 It would appear they’ve lowered the bar (literally) and we’re now doing plastic cups. 😑 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
