Cerveza

phssst!
flip off the cap
little hazy wisps of gas float in the top of the bottle
"chinck "as the bottle touches the glass
"glug glug" as the glass fills
mouth waters as the faint aroma of brew seeps out into the warm summers day!


he he he wish it was warmer today

was drinking hollandia and the other one for a while but went of of them
you get that


tried that coopers mild brew
quite interesting , dont mind it for a change

whos got suggestions?

mmmm i think you have covered a few basses there but with lion nathan trying to take over coopers we should all drink coopers and support them go south aussie go

Pure blonde is a Fav of mine - Delicious

Bitburger is a new one that I tried last week - I bought it because of the packaging it comes in a funky green box - it is made in Germany and it was ok on one's pallet - would definately buy this again. Yummy.

I am forever changing my choices of beer. AND have many Favourites.....including > :

Coopers Pale Ale
Fosters Blue
Carlton Cold
VB
XXXX - but this beer makes me extremely drunk !!

Guiness is great in winter

It is always warm up here in Sunshine City so one can mostly be found having a lovely bottled brew when the work day is thru - beep beep

My preffered drinking vessel is the can . . . Give us a nice cold tinny will ya maate . . . .

James Boags mmm

yaeh tried bitburger - not bad at all
boags is the best aussie lager in that category, that I can think of

Hmmmm - I haven't tried Boags maybe the next trip to the local will see me purchase 6 x Boags. U never know if you never go

Coopers pale ale

wont buy any other beer, it tastes the best and is south aussie

i cannot answer this post at moment im drikn wine.....

me, I like:
- Leffe Dark (like drinking a quality coffee )
- Coopers Dark
- Stouts
- Southwark White (no longer available)
- lowenbrau - real top beer
- Coonawarra ale (looks like its out of production too )
- Heineken
- list goes on really..

I avoid tho, Southwark pale ale, VB, XXXX, american beers , west end.. forget the other ones..

the best beer I've ever had is McEwans Scotch Ale - fantastic, out of production, they then did an Idian Ale, very nice also, looks like out of production also..

corona......mmmm they good too

beer...I am so not a true Aussie sheila...and my dad is never gonna be proud of me being a true Southwark man himself....but I just cannot drink beer...and that shits me coz it would make for way cheaper nights out....give me CC and dry any day over a beer or go for the real deal absinthe when you're at the Enigma bar....mmmmm, good stuff for that extra insight

Even better - a new discovery for me - overproof Kahlua....yep sweeeet kahlua that actually gets you drunk.... 70% alcohol and still sweet on the tongue...love it!!!!

yeh i'm with u smp!

can't stand even the smell of beer! i was told early on in my drinking days that beer was an acquired taste, so i spent a whole nite attempting to acquire it...

well all i acquired by the end of the night was a pretty full bucket..

never touched the stuff since! all spirits for me now

you tried absinthe??? Its good stuff matey and worth the higher price tag....it has hallucinogenic qualities so is extra special ....beware of imitations though....if you ever go to the Enigma bar they serve the real deal there...noice!!!!

i used to hate beer, then i started dating a real "beer and footy" type man's man, and beer has somehow found it's way into my favourite drinks. some of the ones i like are...

- bees nees (had it at some weird beer bar in melbourne, really yummy, has hints of honey flavour ~~~)
- coopers pale ale (go south aussie!)
- becks
- guinness (the beer that eats like a meal ~~~)
- vb (only if it's free and i'm desperate, but still the better of the generic cheapies)

on the otherhand, southwark has to be the *worst* beer i've ever had the displeasure of downing. Crap with a capital C. *nod*

don't tell that to my dad.... but maybe thats where my hatred of beer began....trying his beers after he'd had a hard day down on the old farm....was vile stuff I agree!!! VB is about on par with it I'd say too....nasty with a capital N

haha u guys dont know wat ur missing

smp, your dad is weird

Missvixen, wait till you get a job and can afford something better than beer...YOU don't know what youre missing my dear young thing!!!!

And princesspeach...do you know my dad or something coz you are right...people say I take after him too...hmmmmm

haha babe i love beer so even if i could affor more i would still drink it lol
i do enjoy sprits tho mmmmm
but beer dont get me nearly as hung over and it is not such a heavy drunkness

haha, i don't know him but anyone who actually likes southwark has gotta be a bit off. i mean that stuff is awful!

i love my expensive beers the most, and when i'm really cashed up i especially like to have a guinness or two. that stuff is so good, but so expensive

I heard overproof here Talk about OP, the new drink I like and its as aussie as you can get, BUNDY!!! I'll prob be on the drip with that stuff at the end of the month.. glad I can drink it

theres trouble a brewin!

Should never have made you try it

leffe dark!!!!!!!!!!
thats is some serious heavey beer as I recall(too heavy for me but I am no stout drinker)
tried the chimay ones ?

has anyone been to the Belgian (sp?) beer bar? they have interesting beer although quite pricy!

might have to look into that... cheers for that smp!


that stuff is on tap at the Stag now i do believe.. unless my drunken tuesday nite outing warped my vision.. i recall thinking the name was hilarious at the time... well it had sumthing to do with bees anyway..



so much talk of beer/alcohol..



me thinks its time we organised an Anthemite Pub Crawl...

they have it (bees Knees) at the earl of leicster too

hugely agree with smp re: the absinthe... messy, foul, evil stuff but will knock u on your ear after a few shots so well worth a try!!

there is no stag anymore is there? i thought they went into solvency?

I think I have Jase, but I've had heaps of diff beers and I tend forget them

sure have, thats where Leffe Dark and Blonde is on take, as well as Hoegraden and the likes.. Btw, its Belgium..

yeh they did, but its open again - reopened in August.
dunno what happened in terms of ownership, but its updated inside, its actually pretty nice in there now. havent been upstairs yet tho.
i think its still called the Stag.. not sure.

they have chimay - think thats the one the monks make

Monks make beer!?

That's so cool.

I think I have, pretty sure, they come in small bottles at the bottle shop, looks like a rip-off but aint a bad beer from memory..

BTW, the "real deal" as u speak of is only the stuff legal in australia! Has about 10% of the actuall content of Thurajon (sp?) that the "real deal" has in the Chec Republic. I happen to have gotten my hands on "the real deal" straight from Chec!

As to beers! I have never tasted a better beer than the ones I get straight from the brewers in my hometown in germany, made especially only for the particular brewery. Best beer in the world! The german "weizenbier" is also up there (it's a type of beer not a brand)...

To brands of beer, I luv the coopers, and lot of the imports esp from euro countreis.. American beer SUX and tastes like rubber! Aussie beers in general (no offence) are disgusting, esp VB, MB, Carlton Cold, XXXX, amongst others... however there are some decent ones here, IE coopers, Boags, Beez, etc... I also like the NZ beer Steinlager! Although due to finances, i have been cut back to drinkin the $2 tooheys new at heaven... Don't like the stuff, but for $2 can't go wrong really, only thing better would be free!

I agree German beers are the best. I spent a few days in Munich at Octoberfest a while back and man did those beers taste good. A huge beer festival .... and very civilised - not too many messy drunks. I think I was drinking Spaten and Lowenbrau, but cant be sure as it was many moons ago. Ahh the memories.

Home Brews r tastey.
we have a brew kit, dunno whos lable, but it tastes real good

Jebus!!! The stuff we got from Enigma had us special enough - an was imported from Europe...I'd be a bit scared to try the Czech stuff in that case....be well worth an experimental sesh!!! Sweeeet absinthe...

TRUMMER- newest discovery, yum yum - better than stella and heineken even!

from Dan murphys

Absinthe, traditionally, is brewed with wormwood, an hallucinogenic. In Australia it is indeed a strong liquor, but by no means the real deal, here it has little to no wormwood. Although, I have never encountered the Enigma produce... I would be interested to know the brand... and to give it a go! All my experiences with absinthe purchased from our local bottle-o's have been fun, but not even the slightest bit hallucinogenic.... Just good ol' drunken fun!

But to the important stuff! Beer!!
I wasn't a beer drinker until I was about 20ish, until I started seeing my man... but the past few years have been the best in terms of drinking. I can't believe I couldn't drink the stuff before. It's the best thing in this warm Aussie weather! So refreshing, and so cooling. And the best way to mellow out after a stressful day at work! I'll always go a bit of Coopers, no questions there! But a bit of Becks is nice, and I love to knock back a few Tuborgs (my mum used to drink that when she was young in England!). I love you beer!

Currently I'm knocking back a Pure Blonde, but to be honest, it's a bit lacking in the flavour department. Although I've heard, that like Corona's, it's good with a slice of lime/lemon.... have to give it a go!

So much love for the golden brew in a bottle!!!

pure blond tastes too fizzy and artificial to me, if that makes any sense

some might describe it as a dryness?

its coz it has no carbos, ie sugar, so only god know how it ferments!

They use manky artificial sweetner...

Blasphemy!

just rediscovered a ripper of a beer , at dan murphys

have you guys tried Tiger Beer?? Originally from singapore, it's now imported and bottled here in Oz

There's also a german/ bavarian beer they sell at the Belgian.. can't remember the exact name, but i think the name translates to "honey beer" or something similar??

Local fave has to be Coopers Pale or Sparkling

Yep tiger beer aint to bad. Mate got me onto it when he came back from singapore. Actually we drank a carton of it

Grumpys beer is pretty sweet. Next time your at Verdon near Harhndorf do you self a favour and go in there and have a pint
