I reckon. Food was expensive also but was a decent feed.
That's what you get in the exclusive bars I am told.

That's decent!

Not many places in the Inner City that you can schooners for under $5

A lot of places around darling harbour have beer that price...thing is you end up paying $35+ for a plate of food so you don't go there.

Paying under $5 most places east of Parramatta is virtually unheard of in my ventures. Around my area you're normally paying between $5.50-$7.000 for a schooner. In the City, inner-city you're paying about $6. That's normally why if i'm gonna drink in my area, i'll get a 6-pack and take it home.

Extra Dry Schooners for $5 at the RSL club ftw.

Getting drunk at home is boring :lol: How do you pick up at home? :P

That's what the rape dungeon's for, innit. ;)


For some reason TEDs get me really bad the next morning. I'd say some of my worst hangovers have been caused by TEDs. So i'm sticking clear of them in future, unless i'm already shitfaced and there's nothing else left to drink. :lol:.

"I'm going out to get a couple of beers and a jogging chick, you want anything?"
"Grab us a black chick."

Silly question.. Are XXXX Summers any good? My brother left a carton of it in my room. Thought I'd throw up the question :p

Not sure. My auntie was drinking them over Xmas, and we seem to be selling them at work, I've recently noticed. From the looks of things, and the way people have been drinking them (with a slice of lemon/lime in the neck) they are trying to promote an "Aussie Corona"

You'll probably throw up the beer too.

I personally don't mind the taste, I'm not a bug corona fan but the XXXX Summers are similar. They are pretty light though, like only one point one standard I think

Fucking hate XXXX Summers, we have a fucking shit tonne in stock taking up space because no one ever buys them.

Man the fuck up and drink real beers.

i thought summers were okay. They sell alright at my bottlo.

Got a sixpack of Squire's IPA. Very dark, almost vegemitey, but obviously not as salty.

The bottleshop next to work was having a sale on Budweiser, picked a 6-pack up on sat night.

It's not bad, but it's not brilliant. Bit like Coldies in that sense.

The thing with Budweiser is that it's american :lol: If it was an aussie beer, everyone would drink it.

It's the first time I've had it, and I've heard so many people give it a bad wrap. I was pleasantly surprised. Doesn't have a bitter aftertaste. Perhaps why so many yanks like it. :lol:.

That's the main thing, it has NO aftertaste. It's alright while you're drinking it but it's very light on flavour.

Belgium's where it's at. My pick's..

My fav. Luficer


Kwak


Gulden Draak


They're always better on tap but for those in Melbourne who feel adventurous, Purvis wine cellars (Surry Hills) and Acland Cellars (St. K) have a decent selection of imports and local micro brews. Well they did the last time I was there.

Kwak is pretty good. Acland st Cellars have an awesome range of micro-brews.

That Kwak glass looks like something out of the science lab.

It's a Yard Glass, dude.

the original czech budvar budweiser is a top beer

I had it once years ago and didn't think it was worth the price, I probably need to try it again.

Drinking an Endeavour Amber Ale at the moment. Very VERY nice. Has caramel hints like a manuka honey but with a soft after-taste.

It probably didn't travel too well, would have spent god knows how long getting from the factory to the time you drank it. Its much better drinking it in Prague

Had half a dozern schooners at the London this evening. They've dropped their prices, so it's kinda on par with my old local the Monkey Bar. I think the London will be my new local, it's closer too and has a nice old feel about it.

I wish the pubs around here were half decent. The local is called the "mountain view"...the locals call it 'mountain spew'. Nuff said.
