Cascade Beer

Now here is a point of difference Jizz. We "plastic farmers" have to work for our dollars. We do not receive the obscene government subsidies and tax support that your lot do. In fact, I am am probably subsidizing your luxurious lifestyle. Next time you buy one of Biffen's whores, think of me.

Ease up on the poor fella, he spends more time on 'land than on the land these days

 

Getting back on topic (sort of), I found this advert for Cascade.

Disagree strongly with the anti Seppo sentiment.

Try a sierra nevada pale ale or a Big Eye IPA. Very good beers.

For every tolerable drop there are 3 fruit flavoured beers, or it's sold by some [censored] with a Salvador Dali moustache, puts me off, you have to understand NY is hipster heartland, Fitzroy has nothing on it (I really really miss the Napier and Standard Hotels). I will agree about the IPA.

GOLD, GOLD, GOLD I miss good beer ads

Agree Molloy, Canadian Moosehead is also a nice drop.


The New Zealand beers are good probably helped by the water quality - the old Steinlager is a good drop and Epic is worth a taste.

I'm a Melbourne supporter, so I drink wine.

If you want a good beer head to the Mountain Goat Brewery in Richmond on a Friday evening. Otherwise my beer of choice is Stone & Wood Pacific Ale from Byron Bay.

Great to see Cascade honour a Melbourne legend. Having said that Boags do produce much better beer, but the Moo Brew Brewery just outside Hobart is fantastic. $30 will buy you 8 stubbies from their collection of 6 (the hef was my favourite), an hour long tour and shoot some hoops at the end!

Stone and Wood? That would be the Jasper Ale in the 500m bottle? I've got a cold one in the fridge just looking at me - but not for long!


SA has some terrific brews. Prancing Pony from Adelaide Hills, Monkey's Uncle Red Ale from Clare and Vale Ale from McLaren Vale are three of my favourites.

Pintail Pale Ale from San Diego is a ripper too

About 4 years ago I spent 3 weeks in San Fran (note the hip abbreviation). I lived just on the fringe of the "Castro" district but ventured into the Mission district more than once. I discovered a remarkable variety of Mexican beers - and enjoyed them all.

Asahi.

I like Asahi, but my favourite Japanese beer (and one of my favourite beers full stop) is...

Always pictured you as a craft beer, hipster kinda guy Uncle Bitter. However, if your avatar has been taken recently then you've clearly gone through quite a transformation since. I take it you are drinking vodka Shirly Temples these days. Nice.

I prefer my home brew to most beers. Aldi had tasting paddles on sale on the 27th, so the father-in-law and I sampled a few homies while the Aussies were making hay at the 'G (while Smith/Haddin/Johnson/Harris were batting in the first dig).

Left to right: Nelson Sauvin Pilsner, American Wheat, Riwaka Summer Ale, Chinook Amber Ale.

Y'know, when the gas is too high there's a couple of things going on here, one, the man is impatient, two, he don't know how to cook a steak, three both one and two, I apologise in advance for any offence caused.


2 steaks, one stubbie, somethings not quite right here

Don't let it do your head in.

Nice, KK, nice.

Yes, delicious stuff.

There are few "bad" Japanese beers, really. All very malty and rich.

I'm not big on Australian beers generally. I much prefer Asian, German and Czech beers. Dutch beer is disappointingly bland. That said, Carlton Draught was made to be had with a pie. The two go together well. Although maybe I'm just used to the flavour. Draught tastes like it's been filtered through a bar mat if you have it after a pint of Asahi.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
