 Fact about the glass. A local brewery organised a piss up at their brewery to end the craft beer week we had been having

 A few days before however, the city revoked the license for them to do it. Thankfully, the pub next door   Allowed then to use the premises and everything went ahead.

Brisbane has quite a few good independent breweries, I have a soft spot for Newstead though, been going there for years... also, their session ale is the best midstrength on the market imho. 

Ooh, not to be parochial but have you tried capital brewery's session XPA?

@Hua Guofangi really don’t get the malt liquor thing either. Just know they are cheap and potent. They are like the evil twin of Lite beer where light beer is cheap so you can drink it all day long and not get out of hand, and malt liquor is cheap so you can get shit drunk right now. 🥴 Have heard it called “bum schwill” before if there’s an aus word like schwill (is that German? Lol)

 

yea this one was a malt and is was pretty trash. Better than some but not good. Non of them really are though. Not enjoyable 
 

ipa and iipa don’t ever get called malt liquor they are well known enough to just be called ipa.

Yeah, the only thing I can tell that sets malt liquor apart from a IIPA is that the malt liquor has increased ABV due to adjuncts like dextrose being added where as the IIPA has higher ABV due to more malted barley in the mash (higher malt to water ratio, basically). OF course, IIPAs also have more hops but the defining characteristic that I throught set malt liquor apart was higher ABV, which, of course, a IIPAs have, in spades.

 

Never had malt liquor before. I'm curious but prepared for something that tastes like ass.
