Absolutely...Well, not everyone

**TheNuclearOne** · 22nd March 2017 06:40 PM

Cans taste better? I'll take a bottle every day of the week.

**AndyP** · 22nd March 2017 07:58 PM

Why? Cans seal better and keep out light. That said, I always pour either into a glass anyway.

**Lagerlover** · 22nd March 2017 08:15 PM

Never had a foxy can, unlike you get with stubbies (echoes for my southern brethren).

And more importantly cans don't leave shards of glass in the freezer from that six pack you thought you could fit in prior to deciding to fall asleep on the lounge floor.

**Lagerlover** · 22nd March 2017 08:19 PM

Also you can't freeze stubbies down to use as drinkable ice bricks

**Lagerlover** · 22nd March 2017 08:22 PM

Also the neighbours don't wake up as easily when the garbo empties a wheelie bin of cans at 7 in the morning

Cans taste different to me (not in a good way) and go hot faster. The dregs are terrible. Never poured a stubbie (or can) into a glass in my life.

Anyone here a fan of the Gose style of beer? They are just weird to me. Salty beer doesn't seem right.

I've only ever had 1 of them, a Nomad Freshie Salt and Pepper Gose. They use local sea water to get the salty flavour in it. I was expecting a lot more salt in it but was actually quite refreshing. Its not something I would buy often but I didn't mind it.

Had some amber Vales last night

Apparently

I've had that one. Last night it was the Nomad gose with Murray River salt and desert lime in it. As you say, it is refreshing, but I'd drink plenty of other beers before it.

What's wrong with drinking local beers like Swan Lager?

Big fan Hophead. Lots of flavour.

Didn't go looking too hard for local stuff to be honest. Went to the mainstream bottle shops, that sold mostly mainstream lines.

Vale do make a good beer, haven't had the amber yet thou. The range under their new Fox Hat label are even better

**Lagerlover** · 2nd April 2017 08:37 PM

Thanks mate, I'll look out for that

If you want to try weird then try a Moby Dick Ambergris Ale from Robe town brewery. I got a bottle while passing through not long ago, definitely has a different taste but surprisingly not as bad as you would think. Got through it pretty easy but wouldn't buy again.

**AndyP** · 3rd April 2017 08:08 PM

What is it?

**HOPHEAD** · 3rd April 2017 08:26 PM

A beer with ambergris in it, which is petty much a expensive piece of whale vomit mostly used in perfume. Doesn't it just sound so appealing to drink

**AndyP** · 3rd April 2017 09:10 PM

Hmmmm. Sounds as good as the beer that uses deer semen.

I am clearly way behind in my beer knowledge. Whale vomit, deer semen? Please tell me that's all sarcasm because I just can't tell anymore........
