Vale Lager.



Meh...

The local foreign grocer just started stocking Rogue beers. I've got a Dead Guy, an American Amber Ale, and something Hazelnut inspired chilling in my fridge right now

Wow, Rogue is tough enough to find here!

It's becoming increasingly easy to find here, for some reason. I first noticed they had Dead Guy at a Yunnan restaurant in Shanghai, but now the Irish pub here has it and now my local foreign market has three different Rogue brew.

Kudos to their marketing team. They're a beer hungry people, and there's precious little of quality here.

Should support delicious beer of the motherland Tsingtao, not beer made by U.S. imperialists

I don't mind the Tsingtao, especially the dark. Really intense coffee taste to it.

The local bar sponsors our cricket club, so we get bottles of Tsingtao for 12rmb ($2). Sweet deal is sweet.

Tsingtao hasn't wowed me but I'll try and chase down some of their dark and see how it goes.

At the Rag + Famish in North Sydney (no Bears here though ), got some of the Rocket Science beers hereon tap. Having a go of their Galactic Ale, rediculously drinkable. Quite fruity with a solid bitter hop finish.

Endeavour Bright Ale 2013 vintage. Pass.

I got VB! Been a while since I've had ambrosia.

 

[dogslife]

Victoria brought us VB, they're ok by me.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Saying that VB is a good beer is akin to suggesting Seinfeld was funny.

Friends don't let friends do that.

 

[kia ora storm]

VB is actually ok now they have got it back to full strength...the bottle shape is iconic.

The previous version was cat piss. This version is mother's milk.

Steinlager. Meh, but downable, and it was free.

Fair enough.

Local brewpub has their dark ale back on tap for the Winter.

Dear liver: prepare for work....

Steinlager gives me a headache while I'm drinking it.
