Archie McSquackle Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 For some reason, I've got loads of Lidls near me but I'll need to hunt down an Aldi to pick up a few of their specials. France have just won on penalties (any old excuse) so I'm trying this local white beer to celebrate and it's very nice indeed. Moving on in the morning for a few days in Nice before returning to Scotland. Anything much been happening there? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted July 10 Share Posted July 10 A pleasant pale ale from Pikes Beer which they class as a session ale although it”s 4% whereas most sold session ales here are about 3.5%. Some Pike history The Pike family first began brewing beer in South Australia in 1886, with the establishment of Pikes Oakbank Brewery in the Adelaide Hills by family patriarch, Henry Pike, who emigrated from Dorset, England in 1878. Henry, alongside his son Walter, produced a range of fine ales, stout and tonic water for nearly 90 years, which he delivered throughout the Adelaide Hills area. In 1996, the Pikes label was re-introduced by fifth generation descendant of Henry Pike, Andrew, of Pikes Wines in the Clare Valley of South Australia. The family’s brewing tradition continues firsthand to this day, with sixth generation family member Alister Pike overseeing the brewery, which was built at the Pikes Polish Hill Estate in December 2014 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Vocation barrel aged (PX sherry) imperial stout, 10.6%. While it's very nice, it's also type 2 diabetes in a glass and so getting a 1/3 measure was a wise decision. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 North East Victorian IPA from Bright Brewery, Great Alpine Way, Bright, Victoria. Not far from the Falls Creek snowfields in the Southern Alps. This is an excellent hoppy beer and it’s a bright IPA from Bright. One of those deadly beers that belies its 6.5%. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Oakura Blonde from New Zealand’s Three Sisters Bewery, New Plymouth in the Taranaki region. Ōakura is a township and surf beach not far from New Plymouth. New Zealand’s small breweries produce a lot of good beers, this is no exception. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 (edited) PK Dark from Seeker Brewery, Unanderra, NSW a suburb of Wollongong in the Illawarra as is Port Kembla the place the beer is named after. Pity the beer wasn’t as good as the geography lesson as it is far too sweet. Very disappointing, Sugarelly water would have been better.
