Saranac Pumpkin Ale.
The label says "A perfect hint of pumpkin flavor, spiced right with cinnamon, allspice, cloves and ginger. You'll think you just drank fall"
I only bought it for lol's and that's all I got with how horrible it was.

It's a brewery I actively avoid.
They market themselves as a craft brewer but I tried about 8 of their beers and every one was a bad example of what they were aiming for.

I bet you paid large for it as well.

would have to be seriously smashed to think pumpkin flavoured beer is a good idea

October in the USA is pumpkin flavour month.

Lol nah it was discounted $2 for a bottle. I've looked at it for a while but I don't think anyone was buying it

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

No massive loss then.

Yeah, I had one the weekend as well - bloody enjoyed it.

Going back to Coolangatta in July, so I'll be back on the Resches at the Greenmount Beach Surf Club - died and gone to heaven.

Mythos. Not a bad greek drop

A good winter drink.

Profanity Stout from Scotland.

Rich & intense. Will put hairs on your chest.

Batch Brewing Company Black IPA. Not sure this company could be more hipster if they tried (warehouse in Marrickville near Sydenham station, sells its beer in jam jars on recycled furniture). Beer is excellent, like a fruity espresso. Thank god it costs so much otherwise I could be in trouble!

Had the Renaissance Porter. A Little too sweet for my liking.

Am heading for a tour of the Kereru Brewery in Upper Hutt (Wellington NZ area) on Friday. I like what I have tried of theirs so far... will let you know how it goes.

Another Batch beer tonight, Indian Red Ale. Great tasting beer, but I wouldn't call it a red beer, more a bitter brown ale.

Paddo Pale by Sydney Brewery. Talked a good game on the rear label and sounded great. Ended up being quite bland and run of the mill, tastes similar to Beez Neez. Sad face.

Another Batch beer tonight, Indian Red Ale. Great tasting beer, but I wouldn't call it a red beer, more a bitter brown ale.

If you end up in Seattle at any stage, the Elysian men's room red ale is fantastic.
They have a few pubs downtown and a brewery.

Will be headed there next month for sure.

Had a couple of schooners of Carlton Black last week. It was ok. Think I prefer tooheys Old though

Dear Kronenbourg Blanc..

i only met you tonight, but i think we'll be spending a lot of time together..

I don't want to come on too strong, but i think I'm in love..

Your scent, your touch, the sight of you, to feel the curve of your bottle..

but most of all, to taste you..

Be ready for our rendezvous tomorrow night, but until then know you will be in my heart, my mind and my liver.

with love,

muzby

XOXOXO

Crown Lager Golden Ale / Black Label - as shite as you might think it would be

 

[Scott Gourley's Lovechild]

Kronenburg is rubbish. Stop supporting my club...

 

[Misanthrope]

Had a few random beers tonight.

Lieffman's fruit beer of some kind. Not bad if you've got a vagina.

Brew Dog Trashy Blonde. Not particularly blonde. Or good.

Baby IPA. Chinese IPA. Very good.

Vedet Blonde. Drinkable.

 

[Rhino_NQ]
