Eednud Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Despite it’s name I had to pay for it. Brewed in Portarlington on the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria. Cans look better than what’s inside. Drinkable but wouldn’t make an effort to buy it again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ylf Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 How is it? The other two lockdown beers were in their advent calendar. The Guava one was alright but the cream soda lager was awful.this one is ok. very sweet after taste. only ordered a four pack of this. my favourite is triple hazy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feared the worst as I’m not a massive fan of beers that strong but it was surprisingly pleasant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Just the one tonight. First sample of my Czech Pilsner. Its decent but will reserve judgement till it's a bit older. Wasnt without its issues in the making so let's just see shall we..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Last one from my Beer52 box. It's a pineapple/lime ice cream IPA and it's not unpleasant. Probably the best of the three Moon Dog beers they sent me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamieson87 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Tastes like a boozy Irn Bru bar. Winner. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Tempest Brewery's Chai Cutter Milk Stout. First dark beer of the Beer52 box* after a good but generic IPA earlier. Yes it's another weirdo flavoured milk stout; Tempest generally know their stuff though and this delicate but unmistakably chai spiced stout works. * Spoiler incandescent with rage that they had the brass neck to chuck in a 2.7% 'table beer' offering in this month's box. Think it's finally time to pull the plug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig fae the Vale Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Cranachan Killer by Fierce, my first beer from them. Billed as a raspberry pale ale, its probably not for everyone, but it hits all the right notes for me. Tastes pretty much like a cranachan, which is no bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billed as a raspberry pale ale, its probably not for everyone, but it hits all the right notes for me. Tastes pretty much like a cranachan, which is no bad thing.I had a few cans of this in early lockdown and loved it but haven't seen it since. Can you remind me where it's available? Not sure but I may have got it in Lidl. I tried this Black Forest Stout from my Beer 52 Melbourne box last night. I think someone else previously had similar comments but didn't get any Black Forest and found it pretty bland particularly considering the strength. Give me a McEwan's Champion Ale over that any day.I go for the light and dark selection from Beer 52 but sometimes find the dark selection really disappointing and concentrating on stouts. Maybe some areas don't really do ales or Beer 52 are just picking poorly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
