Gave it a good run on grand final day. Me and a mate did a carton of mixed creatures beers then got stuck into a bottle of Lafroig.

@Nik; Comparison of US vs AUS excise.
http://beerisyourfri...ursday-quote-8/
http://beerisyourfri...ursday-quote-8/
From a carton of beer, approximately $13 is paid straight back to the Government in excise tax. In the US it is more like $1.10. On average in the USA, regardless of alcohol content excise on a 500L batch of beer equates to $35 federal excise and in the case of Washington State, $24 in state excise (this varies from state to state) making it a total of around $59. In Australia a 500L batch costs $700 for a 5% ABV beer meaning in the USA excise is only 10% of the value of the Australian excise system.
Ugh i could ramble on for forking days about this stuff.

Hitting the Ale's tonight. Bought one of those 10 pack of individual beers from Dan Murphys, thought I'd try a couple more out.
So far, so good.
- Stone & Wood Pacific Ale
- Sleeping Giant IPA
- Vale Ale
- Atomic Pale Ale
- Sail & Anchor "Monkey's Fist" Pale Ale
- LC Pale Ale
- Fat Yak
- Squire's Fifty Lashes
- Squire's Chancer
- Balmain Pale Ale
(Top five are new, bottom five are regular's)
I like to think of it as borrowing someone's car and driving it better than them.

Thought I'd give these a whirl.(IPA I have had B4)
Mango beer is too sweet. I had a meal at Matso's (with lots of beer) when I was in Broome.

I didn't mind Giant's IPA.
Has any else tried Vale Ale?
Way too fruity for my liking.

^^And Gage Roads.
@jase- im a big fan of Wicked Elf. I guess its more american style pale, rather than traditional English pale. So is LC's though.
Agree on Mango Beer.
How'd you go with the Miller Chill hahaha

Wicked Elf is quite nice
I should just convert to single, right?As soon as she hands it to you, slowly take of your pants, then, while staring her straight in the eyes rub it against the tip of you penis, while continuing your painfully intense gaze whisper to her;
"My eye is watering, this might be a bit hot"

http://www.thedrinks...strongest-beer/
Snake Venom is the latest creation from Brewmeister in Moray and was brewed with smoked peat malt and two varieties of yeast, one beer and one Champagne.
Like all the beers that have pushed the abv boundaries, freezing during the fermentation process sometime several times is essential.
Brewers Lewis Shand and John McKenzie took nine months to create the beer which they did after some fans apparently said that 65% Armageddon was didnt taste strong enough.
Ugh i could ramble on for forking days about this stuff.
