Oh and FYI on the "fruit" comments
Beers like 150 Lashes, Kosciusko, Fat Yak etc are fruit driven Pale Ale's
Of all the craft beers available, these are probably my least favourite
It's like drinking a tropical fruit punch, urgh.
But Newtowner, Little Creatures (Pale, Pilsner & Bright Ale), 4 Pines Pale, James Squire (Pilsner, Golden Ale, Hop Thief), Matilda Bay Alpha Pale Ale are all decent, acceptable, flavoursome, largely main stream beers
Rather than offer 8 different types of the same thing (and lets face it CUB chemical spew is the same thing regardless of the label) at least offer one or two alternatives
CUB own Matilda Bay, so throwing on an Alpha Pale Ale and a Fat Yak at the very least would have been a good idea. Yeah one is fruit punch, but some people seem to like that, so cater to the f**kers.
Love the Newtowner. Had it at The Horse on my way to the RLWC games at Allianz last year. So good.
Also tried one of these there another time on my way to the cricket as they had it on tap, and for someone who isn't a fan of dark beers I enjoyed this.
If I am drinking beer at my local RSL though I'll go the 150 lashes. Probably the best they have to offer on tap.
