One man's ongoing love letter to hoppy beverages
The Royal Tour has begun with the Royal Hotel, Adelong. This small town on the Snowy Mountains Highway in southern New South Wales, was officially the first stop on The Royal Tour and the first step on an epic quest. I’d been through Adelong a couple times over the course of my work, but this […]
This is it, the new exciting endeavour I teased in the last post. It is one of the greater challenges to come out of a random 11:30pm beery conversation. It will take years, but it will be done. I will have a beer in every Royal Hotel in Australia. It will be: The Royal Tour. […]
After way too long away, Cory Loves Beer has returned in a more limited capacity. A post a week proved a little to ambitious what with life and such. So we’re going to give this thing another crack with a post a fortnight. And I don’t think there’s a better way to get the blog […]
This week the blog takes a return trip to Melbourne. We go to a brewery that has thus far been criminally overlooked by the blog: 3 Ravens Brewery. The good people at 3 Ravens make a number of excellent beers and have a cool name based on Norse mythology. Further, 3 Ravens, is apparently the […]
After last week’s visit to blog-favourite Dainton Brewery, this week we visit another favourite: Adelaide’s Big Shed Brewing Concern. This time it’s for their limited release Violet No-Regard Blue Beer. This is a weird one for me. It came recommended (thank you Tamara), but I really didn’t have a whole lot to go on other […]
This week we’re heading down to a favourite of the blog: Dainton Brewery in Melbourne. This time it’s for their brilliant Amplifier Hazy IPA. Dainton has been featured a fair bit on this blog for their funky beers (see Pickle Dan and B’easter Egg). But Amplifier is a firm reminder that these guys aren’t just […]
So it’s been a fair while since my last post. Work, lockdowns, and various other life forces have drawn my focus elsewhere. But as of now, the blog is officially back and I’ll be resuming weekly posts from here on out. Now, all that being said, the blog is making its return this week with […]
I usually focus this blog almost exclusively on Australian craft beers with a couple of occasional Kiwi brews thrown in for good measure. But given the recent 4th of July holiday in the States and my connections back there, I thought it might be an appropriate time of year to bring out one of my […]
For the purposes of this blog, I do try to avoid going back to the same brewery too often. But, at the same time, sometimes I’ll have a beer that’s just too damn good, and it doesn’t matter if I’ve just written about the brewery or not. Such is the case with this week’s beer […]
This week’s beer comes from a blog regular: Hope Brewery from the Hunter Valley. However, in a bit of a change of pace, for the first time in quite a while, this Hope post will not be about one of their awesome sours. This time, it’s their massive F-11.1% Jet Red IIIPA. Let’s get it […]
