A last pint at Sydney International Airport. Lazy Yak. Hits the spot.

Interesting read from Fullers Head Brewer, John Keeling, about guidelines and rules placed on beer making, especially in Germany.

Another awesome blog post from Cloudwater - http://cloudwaterbrew.co/blog/spring-summer-2016

They're changing their approach this year and instead of having 4 seasonal ranges, they're having two: Spring/Summer and Autumn/Winter.

Some very tasty looking beers in that post :beerchug:

I like my craft lagers normally so Brooklyn punk lawless etc

I didn't go tonight as it didn't open til seven and j had a cat to sort (rock n roll) so going at 501 tomorrow!!

The Williams craft lager is brewed just down the road from me. It's okay, nothing to write home about though.

Will try one of those.

Really want to try those lagers side by side and try to pick out the differences. I love stuff like that.

I can't bring myself to do lager any more, the majority of it just tastes like piss. I know Cloudwater lagers (or any craft brewery lagers for that matter) are going to be a cut above, but even the word lager puts me off these days!

I tend to be the same boozy although I do find that I now really enjoy a good pilsner now.

Naaah, I love a good lager. Picked up a few West - St Mungo and some Brooklyn lager earlier for a night out tonight.

Only lagers I like are either hopped up ones - Camden, IHL; Williams Brothers, Ceasar Augustus; Brewdog, Session IPL or something malt-forward like a Vienna Lager or Altbier. Only normal lager I will drink is Boston Lager, but there is hardly ever a situation where that would be what I go with.

Brooklyn is outstrnaidng

You'll be pleased to know that Brooklyn is a Vienna Lager as well so you're safe from 'normal' lagers.

Cloudwater's Dark Lager from their winter range was absolutely spectacular if you like malt-forward lagers.

 

[North West Wanderer]

Impressed with the place, looks the part. Have taken a pic but not sure how to post

Don't think I've had the Brooklyn lager before. Might grab one next time I see one.

Annoyingly The Wine Seller never stocked the Couldwater winter range, although I probably wouldn't have seemed out the lagers from the range.

Oops. Thought you'd put Brooklyn, not Boston.
