Cosidering the locals of Bairnsdale are mainly VB swillers, i dont think to many of them would no what it was let alone want to buy it but yes it was lucky and i was very happy as you can imagine :lol:

As far as a session beer goes i gotta say that if i could get hold of enough of it then i would be quite happy having a good session on it, what did you pay for your 6 pack, when i bought mine the guy in the drive through couldnt find a price for it so i offered him $20 for the dozen and he said yep no worries, thought that was a pretty fair price :lol: :wink:

It actually goes quite nicely as a session beer, I found out last night. I tried it for the very first time and really enjoyed it - I *think* I had 6 or so, but cannot remember because there was other stuff...

Strangely, it reminded me of my two-can stout attempt.

Sounds to me like you need to get in and brew some more of your own, lethaldog. This purchasing of commercial beer is very unsettling. :wink:

Mind you, the bottles are good for HB. Oh, wait... :wink:

Does anyone know if they're releasing another batch of this lovely stuff???

There's no mention of it on their site (or Hop Thief come to mention it)

Cheers,
