(He also reminded me not to mention being a Norwood supporter while there.)

I think the Porsche gave it away

Nah..
We went in his RAV4 (and my wife and I had my Audi and her Musso by then).

[quote="Psyber I think the Port Dock Hotel used to have something called "Old Preacher" on tap.

A few of those under your belt and the Preacher could have his way with ya*

Used to blow your head off!

Wow, those top few are pretty ordinary.

My favourites are Carlton Dry and Cooper's Dark Ale.
Will drink Carlton Draught if there's no dry on tap.
Other than that I don't really branch out into others.

In the last 12 months I would have only had 4 of those. XXXX and Hahn light, because the Mrs was heavily preggas over Christmas/New Years so I drank them as they are a light beer.

Otherwise, just the Extra Dry and Carlton Dry.

VB is a proper, full bodied beer. Only took me 35 years to work out

[RustyCage]

VB is
Carlton Draught from that list, stick with Coopers Lager though

[Stumps]

Anyone tried the new Coopers celebration? what's it like?

[Sorry Dude]

It isn't a bad drop. I was at the 150th Birthday on Sunday. It is like a hop filled Pale Ale.
Really nice drop.

Australians beat Germans at... making south-German style beer

If I see it, might have give Burleigh Hef a shot.

In a shock announcement today, Little World Beverages – creators of Little Creatures, White Rabbit and Pipsqueak – is in the process of being taken over by Lion. The Sydney-based multi-national – owned by Japanese corporation Kirin – already controls beer brands such as Tooheys, XXXX, Hahn and Boag’s, and this morning confirmed that they had reached an agreement with the West Australian-based Little World Beverages to purchase the remaining shares that they do not already own. Lion currently owns approximately 37 per cent of Little World Beverages, meaning they are looking to purchase the, approximately, 67 per cent that remain.

Bless Coopers for avoiding this road so far.

Multinational corporation = less focus on the beer, more focus on the profits.

Tried a beer before Xmas at the Wheatsheaf from a New Zealand brewery called Flying Nun. Thought it was a bloody good drop

Yum! And the best bit it was free!
