Some beers still find their way to me, making it all the way to Roma. There seems to be a filter, because the ones that do have been pretty special. Including this one, a hoptastic special…a collaboration with Firestone Walker. Wonderful to see the beers still coming out of , and that still signs his own letters. Yes Stirls, life is good. 😊

I don’t get much beer sent to me anymore, but a care package from Heads of Noosa turned up just in time for GF day, and it’s a cracker. A beautifully delicate Helles-style lager perfect for watching the football, or reminiscing about Oktoberfest.

It’s been far too long since I have had a beer at The Local Taphouse. So much has changed in the brewing industry since it opened in 2008, but it still sets the benchmark for great beer pubs nationally.

This takes me back, and is actually quite exciting. To celebrate its 18 birthday, Moo Brew has released its original beers - Pale, Pilsner and Dark - in the classic Moo bottle. Straight to the fridge.

Not often I am the one being interviewed, but I sat down with the team at ABV to talk a little about beer. I think I ended up asking a few questions too!
