And local beer is cheaper than water!!! What a great place! Saigon is favorite but if ya brave there is lots of local stuff that tastes like soupy dishwater with bubbles.

Beer - no particular order Becks Stella (the imported one only ... not the CUB under lic one) Little Creatures Pale Ale Corona Cider Monteath's (tried a few but found their's to be just right for me) Wine Not that much of a snob but we do enjoy a glass with meals most nights ... something easy to down....I stick to blends - Cab Shiraz's; GSM's; or SCM's - and nothing too expensive

Appreciating a Coopers Pale or two in the sun watching the guys surfing from off the back verandah at home. Not aspirational on the beer front or inspirational to go get wet but appreciating it 8)

I'm on the Grolsch swing top at the moment - the theory being that I can always reseal the bottle and finish it later but so far that hasn't been a problem! ???

I'm enjoying a Sapporo at Sailor's Thai Ivy in Sydney, along with an exquisite hot and sour pork belly. Now to find a decent espresso in the CBD tomorrow.

Today at a function I was offered a Corona beer with a wedge of lemon in the tube of the bottle I enjoyed it very much :thumb:

I don't mind the odd Corona despite it being like sex in a canoe. When I was young and reckless we'd drink the neck of a Corona then top it up with Tequila. We fast became young and leg less!

LEMON??? Sickos!

Love Asahi too :thumb: Lemon goes well with some beers. A few of the local wheat beers or even a German Pilsner on ocasions 🙂

I'm enjoying Atomic Pale Ale at the moment - cheap and cheerful and goes down a treat!

Lemon is OK with wheat beer (in small doses), but lime goes far better with mexican beer. Cardamom is good with some beers too.

Monteiths Black Beer watery and lacking somewhat over the description on the bottle. Still ok and better than some other dark beers I have had but give me a Coopers Stout (cheaper) or even a Vintage Ale (same price) before it.

Brett_H

Good to know. I love the Coopers but have never tried Vintage...roll on the weekend!

The Vintage is a once a year release only so you may not find any left. Release date was around 6 weeks ago and mine is resting for Christmas with the remains from last year and a 6 pack from 2010 😛

Brett_H

Got a link to the vintage? I'll grab some next year.

Either follw them on FB or Twitter is a good way to find out may or may not work as a link 😃 or their main website you can subscribe to news http://www.coopers.com.au/ If you have a good independent bottle shop around where you live you might still get lucky for some of this years 🙂
