what would you recommend?? I've been to germany and drank a lot of weiss beers. Maybe it's just a personal preference, but I really don't enjoy them as much as a lot of females and amateurs do.

 

i would recommend witbiers, the belgians dont use hops in the same way as germans.

 

strangely enough a good article is on wikipedia;

the bar i work has a micro brewery that does its own belgian witbier with orange and coriander, its fairly traditional and it's fucking awesome, hence why you might like them more than the german's.

They have a brew called 'Tactical Nuclear Penguin', which is 32%ABV. It's pretty much a barley wine aged in whisky casks. If you're in Perth you can order from the IBS on McCourt St in Leederville. I paid a bit under $20 for the Tokyo's.

 

damn dude you know your shit, props to you. yeah thats the one, i remember the name now, not aure how i forgot a name like that though.

 

where you from?

I always call it the Atomic Pigeon, so don't worry about forgetting the name. My mate works at BrewDog now, good to know there's some WA flavour in the beer from Scotland.

 

If you get a chance, try the BrewDog 'Bashah' - It's a double india pale ale aged in whisky barrels, it is one of the best new age dark beers I've ever drunk. At a bit more manageable 8% as well.

 

From the same place you are, mate.

This now, sorry I could not find anything better for a pic. Their 7.6% Saison style made w/ a rare crossbreed of hops that has a lemon scent/finish. They describe it as 'sunshine in a glass." Sunshine is not the word I would use. It's kind of meh and pricey, get one if you have $ to blow and want to try something different, otherwise there are better brews with lemon in it. This is kind of like a good brewery putting out a brew w/ a taste of lemon pledge to it. To quote The Simpsons, needs more dog.

Mikeller is a bit 'hip to be cool' at the moment, but as long as you don't get caught up in the wank these are some top beers.

i got a chance to try the mikkeller beer that's made with those coffee beans collected from weasel shit - supposed to be some super rare beans.

i'm not big on stouts/chocolate/coffee type brews, but this shit was good.

Drank this alot when i used to live in South Florida. It was a nice beer to mix things up, real dark, rich, and a nice real coffee flavor, also a nice silky texture with a mild carbonation.

Also this is a decent beer to let friends try out that may not be into many craft beers.

coopers vintage extra strong ale. just the name alone sounds great, but the beer is actually fantastic. it's dark and full of body, fucking perfect for the shit house weather outside.

coopers makes some pretty tasty beers. their sparkling ale is perfect for warm/hot weather outdoor activities - bbqing and such. really crisp and easy to drink.
