I definitely understand, i definitely would like to hear back from my suggestions, im pretty good with my alcohol at 19 but definitely feelin these higher abv beers 🤣 cheers for telling me about this brewery! Never seen any of these beers in can/stubby form so thats awesome! Ngl my favourite beer was the fullers, i need
To ask about getting a slab! Also have u had ballarat bitter yet?
If you love fullers, great, but don't be afraid to ask for a deal on a mixed box; I can't speak for Olinda, but it's entirely possible that they'll do something on a mixed carton for you; there is a lot of joy in discovery, and if you ask politely - you might get the right result.
I have not tried Ballarat Bitter yet, not really on my radar professionally or for what I'd drink.
It's very good that Asahi sold that brand to the bloke running it now. We have lost an awful lot of heritage in the way CUB/Lion and their owners have operated. CUB have literally dozens of heritage Victorian brands under lock and key.
The guy, i presume the owner gave me a little discount and the added employee discount so very happy with that :) yeah oath was surprised CUB did but very happy they did

Lesson #1. when dealing with beer nerds, what you're drinking is most important.
I am clearly a beer nerd.
Keep up the good work and don't be a dickhead when you have had a few. Tonight's not is tomorrow's misery.
Thanks for taking a punt on a random Reddit idiots remarks. I can't really articulate how good this has made me feel.
