One man's ongoing love letter to hoppy beverages
Rank: #17 Location: Tarrawana, NSW (Wollongong) Favourite Beers: Jack the RIPA, Isolation IIPA, Southern Cross Pale Ale Previous Blog Appearances: Jack the RIPA, Reub Goldberg Brewing Machine The next brewery on the list is actually the very first brewery I ever wrote about on this blog. Since then, I’ve been back for new growler fills […]
This week’s beer comes from the Blue Mountains and Katoomba’s Mountain Culture Beer Co. It’s a mouthful of punchy hoppy haze called Be Kind Rewind DDH IPA. My first introduction to Mountain Culture was a sample pack of their beers a good mate of mine got me for my birthday this year. The beers were […]
This week we rectify a significant oversight for this blog. I’ve been writing this for well over a year now, and have yet to write about one of my favourite breweries: Modus Operandi. And, for my money, the pick of their impressive range of beverages is the Former Tenant Red IPA. The Modus Operandi name […]
This week’s beer comes from One Drop Brewing in Sydney. I’d heard good things about some of their hoppier offerings and Twisted Fate DDH IIPA most definitely did not disappoint. With Twisted Fate, ‘hoppy’ is the key adjective. There are definitely some big bold malts happening as well, but I’m not sure I’d go so […]
As I alluded to a few weeks back, Hope Brewery churns out some of the best sours I’ve ever had. In fact, this will be the third of their sours I’ve written about for this blog (after the Imperial Mango Sour and Sunny Boy Sour). But I had to write about just one more before […]
This week’s beer goes all the way back to my very first post on this blog a year and a bit ago. It comes from Reub Goldberg Brewing Machine in Tarawanna (Wollongong). It’s a big, bitey, glorious red IPA simply called the Jack the RIPA. Reub Golberg is a fantastic little brewery in the suburbs […]
For this week’s beer, we head back to the sours. It’s not necessarily my go-to genre of beer, but I certainly don’t mind me a sour every now and again. But when it’s as good as the Sunny Boy Sour from Hope Brewery, I’m certainly inclined to have them significantly more often. First off, sour […]
This week, for the first time in 4 months, I was able to visit a brewery to sit down and have a few beers and a feed! And it was everything I remembered it to be, and more. The brewery I was lucky enough to visit this past weekend was Jervis Bay Brewing. For those […]
For this week’s beer we move away from Tasmania for the moment. Instead, we head to the Blue Mountains of New South Wales and Mountain Beer Co’s Double Red IPA. Mountain Culture is a fairly new brewer (opening just last year). But jeez they’ve come out swinging. Perusing their beer roster, you’ll find Milk Oat […]
When you think craft beer and Northern Beaches, you would generally first think of Modus Operandi, and for good reason. Modus’ reputation for big, delicious beers is well earned. But there’s a new brewery on the Mona Vale scene. Quakers Hat Brewing may not have the resume Modus does just yet. But if their Red […]
