    @mariner4life in the olden days you would have a crate of 750 mill bottles on the seta or floor beside you ands work your way through them on a long drive

    What with that, the state of the roads and cars it was no wonder there was carnage on the highways

    Dunno about that. It's a solid crafty drop - Luke Nicholas knows his shit when it comes to brewing. It isn't Liberty, but then, not much is. I tend to buy a bit as I know it's goign to be more than acceptable... a lot of beer can be hit and miss.

    It's not a patch on Lakeman, Panhead or Garage Project in my opinion but I am a typical massive Wellington beer piston wristed gibbon....I might even grow the beard to reinforce my point.

    eh, horses for courses. I choked down a panhead last night, and wasn't impressed. Possibly not treated well, but they aren't what they were before they were bought out

    I have beaten people to death for less offensive statements than this.

    Ah, now that's a selfie I can be happy with.

    Bit too bogan to join the London hipster crowd. They may not let you into their ironically converted corner shop with a carefully selected fridge of obscure brews made out of waste and hedgerow clippings. You need to cultivate this look if you want in (and want to look like every second plonker in E1)

    Braces and pointy shoes compulsory I presume?

    Depends on whether you can afford them after shelling out your paycheck for someone to scribble on you with a needle and/or the latest beard products.

    Craft beer has fast become like wine. If you want the best or the boutique you have to accept that you will pay more than the incremental difference in quality.

    Before the huge boom in brewery choice you also payed for access to something that tasted different to the mass produced stuff. Now their is plenty of variety at various price points.

    I simply won't pay the stupid prices simply for AFIPA (another fucking IPA) just because it is from a brewery I haven't tried. That is a sure fire way to go broke now. Occasionally you have to if that is all that is on offer.

    I'm happy to pay a little more for a product that is putting some effort in providing me a new taste experience though and if I want something special will fork out accordingly.

    You don't drink the best wine as a daily drink (unless you have more money than sense or a massive interest in it as a hobby)

    The quality of beers at the next level down has improved markedly over the last few years. I can get a contract brewed RIPA from Lidl for 99p that tastes no different to a random selection of the same at a hipster shop at 3 times the price. Put it in a glass and tell someone it's for some obscure craft brewery and they'd say it was quite nice.
    That 99p can is still being sold way above its mass equivalent too.
    It's mostly all better than the mass tap lagers which only taste good first sip when really cold and certainly better than Waikato.

    Yeah but you drink Waikato Draught.

    Actually I'm far less bad than I used to be. Still love a Corona on a hot day.

    Like I drug addict having a moment of clarity I saw how close I was getting to being a full blown beer dick and I backed off accordingly.

    So are you more of a beer twat in real life or on the fern? Could go either way.
