New Year’s Eve Eve at the Brewboys

GT LagerBrewboys aren’t open on new year’s eve but they are open on new year’s eve eve. They have a one off keg for the night called hoppy new beer which sounds like it is right up my alley. Music and fun will also abound. If you are looking for something to do this Thursday get down to Brewboys. You are probably on leave from work so you can get there any time from noon when they open. Get There!

Lots of Good Stuff at The Wheaty, Wheatsheaf Hotel

It's Mayhem

It’s that time of year when we all drink and eat too much but often the beer we are drinking isn’t that great. However for those of us in Adelaide the Wheaty(Wheatsheaf Hotel) has us sorted for a great range of beers at the moment including specialty six packs for that special beer geek in your life.

The Epic Armageddon IPA is back and stock and it’s as tasty as ever. The beers coming out of NZ at the moment are just amazing and this is one of the best. The availability of this beer has been patchy in recent times so you should get down and get some as soon as you can. If you can’t make it to The Wheaty Adelaide Bier Shop has it in stock too. Like all Epic beers it has that great sharp lingering bitterness. Another beer you have to try before it sells out it the 8Wired Hopwired IPA. This is one of the best new beers you will try for a long time. Every time I drink it I am amazed by how good it is. I rate this up with the best IPAs I have ever had and I have had a few. This one is also available at Adelaide Bier Shop so if you are outside Adelaide or just don’t want to leave the house they can sort you out. The other NZ beer available at the moment that you have to try is the Tuatara APA. A real whack of hops that fills the whole pallet. It may be too late to get your hands on this as it was selling fast but get to The Wheaty to see if they have any left.

There are also a bunch of the Rogue beers back in stock and numerous other interesting beers to try. There are even some growlers of Rogue beers available but in very limited quantities. Get There!

Travels

Brewers Row

It’s been a while since my last update as I have been travelling around Western Australia for my day job. I have some good beery stories to tell from the wild West though. My visit to Fremantle turned out very well.

Make sure you down to The Wheaty soon. They have the Epic Armageddon in will have Emerson’s pils on tap this Friday. Both of these are not to be missed so get on down there and get your self some great beer. I don’t get back in town til the 23rd so will miss it. I will be there on the 23rd to see if there is anything left though.
