The good, the bad and the ugly of commercial beer and breweries, including microbreweries and craft breweries.

well coopers passed me onto so a sydney beer supplier and he got back to me today.
G'day Luke and thanks for the enquiry.

We did run some Vintage ale promotions in different venues throughout NSW prior to Christmas and will be running some more in the next few months, if you can let me know where you are and I will be able to see if we have any more planned for your area.

They do not need to, they have porn and fireworks :lol:

It'd be full of hot air anyway.......I know, I know Chris, the Pollies are imports to Canberra. :D

I am in Newcastle and we do make some drinkable beers (ie not Blue Tongue Draught or Ginger Beer).....Try Platts Folly which is a local boutique beer which is nice.........oh, and my HB IMO.

I wouldn't go making a special trip or anything but, alot of the Liquorlands have them, and it's just hit or miss as to whether there's anything in there... :D

A few years back I found a pub in town here in Adelaide that still had stubbies of the first release of the Vintages :shock: They would have been 4 or 5 years old at that stage, absolutely amazing... made myself very sick that night :P
