We are three mates from Perth, Australia who love a good beer, whether it be from the Swan Valley or imported all the way from the US.
We are all about trying new and exciting beers, pushing our tastebuds to the limit, and ultimately just enjoying ourselves.
This is our beer journey.

4 Pines Stout
I’m not sure what makes a beer certified for space, but this one claims to be. It pours a lovely rich black colour, with no head and just a slight lacing around the edge of the glass. There’s roasted cocoa and hints of caramel, but sadly the body is just slightly on the watery side. Thats really my only dislike about this otherwise very decent offering from 4 Pines brewing. Keep up the good work guys.

Vale IPA
I feel like the guys over at Vale have taken a US IPA and thought, how best can we try and recreate as much of this flavour, and still appeal to the emerging craft beer market in Australia. Well guys, I applaud you for producing an IPA, although it lacks the oomph that is needed to really get me excited about a beer. It’s decent, with enough hops to make it drinkable, but it lacks the pull to make me want to go and get more. Unless you’re new to the craft beer scene, its not worth it.

Rogue St Rougue Red Ale (Dry Hopped)
I was lucky enough to be taken to lunch by my grandmother yesterday, and as it happened her choice was undoubtedly one of the best beer bars in the city. So that brings me to the Rogue. It’s grassy, really grassy and due to this there is quite a bitter aftertaste, with a nice dash of malt in there too. All up, its good, but I wouldn’t be rushing back fro another anytime soon. It was however a welcome relief from the mid-strength beers on offer at work. So for this, I give it one thumbs up.

Guinness
What more can one say about this magical drop, it just doesn’t get any better or fresher than from where it all began, in Ireland. To be honest, it tastes just that little bit more creamier and that little bit fresher.

Coopers Extra Strong Vintage Ale (2012)
Thanks to #corporateconversation for sending us some samples of last years Coopers Vintage Ale. My this is a fine example of a vintage ale. It’s complex from the use of many different varieties of hops, and the creamy mouthfeel leads way to some gorgeous roast toffee and caramel flavours. I’m be off to the shops to see if there’s any left. This is liquid gold!
