Budweiser. ****.
right now i'm drinking....
Earlier at a tasting I had a Waldhaus Spezial gold (helles)
Now I'm home and having Emersons Wiezenbock,
I'll follow this with a Cassels Dunkel.
Also picked up a bottle of mashup from regionals to have tomorrow.... I'll be very interested to see what this tastes like. Mashup is a collaboration beer by a whole heap of NZ craft brewers and was brewed at Epic Brewery in Auckland.

I've been enjoying Maine Beer Company's "Peeper Ale" the past few nights. Very good!!!
Lagunitas Undercover Investigation Shut-down Ale
I can't really put my finger on what this beer tastes like. It's a malty-hoppy-perfectly-balanced-beer-creation. I like it. Even better than the WTF.

Uff-Da Bock, served at basement temperature. It may be almost June, but the 60deg and rain weather we're experiencing means this beer is just about perfect.
Got it for my Birthday. Hot today so it seemed like a good a time as any to bust it open.
Went here last night. HIGHLY recommended for any Sydney monkeys.
Had the following, in order of most to least awesome:
Rex Attitude (peat aged strong ale)
Patriot (American black ale)
Cock Socking Ball Knocking Chipotle Stout
Mike's Imperial Porter
Alpha Pale Ale
IPA is Dead Bramling X
Mildura Chocolate Hops
Quite a good night, as Tuesday nights go.
5 of those 7 were just 90ml samples so it's not like I went and got smashed midweek...

5 of those 7 were just 90ml samples so it's not like I went and got smashed midweek...Interesting. So sorta similar style to WTF, but better? Because that stuff rules. Have you tried Brown Sugga from them? Because that's also a weirdly balanced one that kicks tons of ass.
Yeah? Pretty sure the place I went last night had that bottled. May have to give it a go.
I would be astonished if they did!
Liberty Brewing is a nano brewery from the back blocks of Taranaki NZ.
To date only 400L of this brew has ever been made and Jo has NEVER bottled only kegged.
The Rex Attitude isn't peat aged, it's brewed using 100% peated malt (the same as used in Scottish Whiskey). If you head back to that bar see if they have any of it's sister brew the "Pot, Kettle, Black" it's not a bad drop.
The Croucher Patriot Black IPA is pretty nice isn't it, but I prefer the Mikes Imperial IIPA over it.
Good to see 3 of your top 5 were Kiwi brews.... Glad ya liked them.
Ok, probably misremembered the name then, I only looked over the bottle list quickly, and stuck to stuff they had on tap.I would be astonished if they did!

The name Pot, Kettle, Black sounds familiar but it definitely wasn't on tap. Must have been bottled, or I'm making things up again.
Really, really, liked Patriot. Mike's IIPA wasn't available on tap, but would have given it a go had it been. From what I can gather this place has a very fluid selection, so I'll be back in a few weeks to see what's changed.
I must apologize.
It turns out that Jo has started bottling beer..... First shipment of bottled has arrived in my local bar today.
PBR. The card is filling out nicely.
Sam Adams summer ale .

Intrigued. Will investigate when I'm back stateside.
You tried their RIS? I can get bombers of it for four fvcking dollars at home. And it's awesome. Best deal on a great stout ever.
