Thats what i like to hear! kick on stickman..

When can we start voting for your song on unearthed? We should rally up the qgl troops to give ya mad props online.

Tiger on special at 1st choice for $44 a carton. beers at mine!

Tiger is a horrible beer. We had to sell all of ours dirt cheap because knowone bought it and it went out of date.

i bought 12 cans in hong kong for $40hkd less then 10aud last week... its vb for asians.

$38 vb carton ftw

also tiger is awful

yous are all uncultured

petal, pass me my glass of merlot

rofl at Merlot!

You do know that Merlot is a soft wine for nubs doncha? Get a cabsav upya :p

i'd rather drink merlot than vb or tiger for that matter

Asahi on the other hand

This is my new favourite in the short time I have been in England...

http://www.raadhuskiosken.dk/pic/vinafdeling/BUDVAR_1.gif

It's made by Budweiser and is very tasty. I think you can get it at Dan Murphy's/First Choice but it is a bit exy. Very cheap over here, £1.20 per 440ml can. And that is one of the more expensive beers! You can get 6 cans of Stella for £5 at most places.

I fukn love tiger but it was all sold out :(

Each to their own - i think Crownies are swill but some people love em.

I love tiger :D

$38 vb carton ftw

$44 imported carton of beck's says otherwise

crownies = worst beer ever.

Extra Dry

extra dry ftw

vb you have to be kidding me

It's made by Budweiser

that gives it a lot of credibility

vb ftw

extra dry you have to be kidding me


actually I'm loving kronenbourg 1664 atm but vb is more affordable :(

goon ftw

I am drinking Heni on tap over here and it's actually quiet good. Carlsberg, Bud, various german beers i can't spell - its all good fun.

Been drinking alot of euro beers and at my 'aussie' pub they have fosters on tap and its actually pretty good, believe it or now!

but its only 11:30 am here :(

also of the aussie beers

Carlton Draught
Resches
Extra Dry
Carlton Cold
Tooheys New

all are win

#1 Beer to own all beers: Blanche de Namur. Belguim white ale; Sen-sational. Discovered it a couple of months ago, went straight to number 1.

http://www.beersofeurope.co.uk/acatalog/Beers_of_Europe__Blanche_de_Namur_121.html

Blanche de Namur.

Wasn't she a character in Golden Girls?

ffs anyone who disses vb is a fag

also crownies are vb for spankers

some day i hope to be a spanker

440ml can

ftw

heniken comes in 500ml cans over here and they are €1.50 or there abouts (when bought from an 'off license' in a pub its €4.60 or more for a pint :(

yuse are all fags

metho++

Ok having worked in a bottle shop for over a year. This is where its at.

Best Aussie Beers

1) Tooheys New
2) Tooheys Extra Dry
3) Pure Blonde
4) I will throw XXXX gold in as the best midstrength beer (I know most people think its crap but it f***en sells itself).
5) Carlton Cold

Best Imported Beer

1) Heineken
2) Asahi


Best White Wines

Sav Blanc Blends (Oyster Bay and Oxford Landing are both FTW here in price)
Riesling (Best one i ever had was a premium Jacob Creeks Selection)

Best Red Wines

Cab Sav(Penfolds more expensive editions go great with a steak or any hot meal)
Shiraz (Lindemans and of course cant go past Penfolds)

And to settle the matter on VB. Its an overpriced local beer worhsipped by victorians only because it is made there. It is simply a crap beer, and aboriginals drink it. Why pay 38 dollars for VB when you can pay 34/35 for Tooheys New.

my two cents.

i don't rate extra dry, it tastes like the diet coke of beer

xxxx bitter, but not gold
vb, cause it tastes similar enough to xxxx after a few jugs
carlton mid
tooheys old
cascade
strongarm
eumundi lager

yeah Tooheys New is the s***.

i dont mind tooheys actually

if pushed into a corner i will drink it

You guys are all fags. Kilkennys and Guinness ftw

XXXX Gold for the win!

Only because it's one of the very few beers I can drink that doesn't give me headaches. Most heavy beers will give me a bad headache after drinking a couple.

8-(

Ok having worked in a bottle shop for over a year. This is where its at.

Which one?

Best Aussie Beers

1) Tooheys New
2) Tooheys Extra Dry
3) Pure Blonde
4) I will throw XXXX gold in as the best midstrength beer (I know most people think its crap but it f***en sells itself).
5) Carlton Cold

I hope you have made this list purely on price and not on quality. XXXX Gold is a very dominant beer (1 in 3 beers sold in QLD is a XXXX Gold) but if you want a QUALITY midstrength, buy a 6 pack of Rogers. It's made by Little Creatures and it rocks very hard.

Best Imported Beer

1) Heineken
2) Asahi

Something tells me you work at a fairly mainstream shop, but yeah I dig both of those beers too. However, they are both fairly light in terms of flavour - they are great for smashing in a heavy session, but if you want flavour they will let you down.

Best White Wines

Sav Blanc Blends (Oyster Bay and Oxford Landing are both FTW here in price)
Riesling (Best one i ever had was a premium Jacob Creeks Selection)

Spot on with the Sauv Blanc - they are huge at the moment. Oyster Bay/Giesen/Stoneleigh - all massive. I've noticed a bit of Oxford Landing in the shops over here in London. It's not the best wine, but it's ok. As for riesling, you need to get a really good one for it to be anything other than glorified cask wine. Try Petaluma - it's costly but it's fantastic.

Best Red Wines

Cab Sav(Penfolds more expensive editions go great with a steak or any hot meal)
Shiraz (Lindemans and of course cant go past Penfolds)

OK you definately work in a mainstream shop :) But that's cool, that's where most people shop. Cab Sauv is great, but try some French or Chile ones FTW. In terms of Shiraz, Australia are kings at it - it should be our grape. Penfolds do make some grape Shiraz's, and in particular some even better Shiraz/Cab blends. If you want Aussie, get Shiraz from Barossa, and Cab Sauv from Coonawarra or Margaret River.

And to settle the matter on VB. Its an overpriced local beer worhsipped by victorians only because it is made there. It is simply a crap beer, and aboriginals drink it. Why pay 38 dollars for VB when you can pay 34/35 for Tooheys New.

my two cents.

Agreed, it sucks balls. 5-10 years ago when the choice wasn't as great I can understand people buying VB based on the price. But now the price isn't that special and there is so much more of a bigger range, I can't understand why it is still our biggest selling beer (within Australia - outside it's Fosters). Give it a few years and Tooheys Extra Dry or Carlton Draught will replace it.

Fosters = VB? Like, i always thought vb and fosters both tasted like absolute s***, but i never put 2 and 2 together and figured out it was actually the same brew!

im diggin the super dry's atm.
yea that budvar or whatever is awesome.
1664 is awesome
stella's and that were about 12 pounds or something a carton,
hoegaardem white beer is good times.
tooheys old yum yum.
if im just down the pub after work for a couple i'll get xxxx gold.

I'm still hanging out to try Emersons Pilsner. The review I read on it was absurdly good.

CHOP O'CLOCK :D:D:D:D:D

CHOP O'CLOCK

GUYZ, I DO DRUGS! CHECK IT OUT!

f*****.

Anyway, Tooheys Pils for the /victory.

Well i Work at The Brackenridge Tavern Bottlemart which actually got the award for best bottle shop in queensland from QHA (Queensland Hotels Association).

It is fairly mainstream but we still have a large range of wines and a s*** load of RTD's. Our fridge space compared to BWS and liqourland allows us to stock alot more RTD's that you would never see them stock.

I know the beers i choose are mainstream i have tried alot of others like 1664, Monteith's, Castlemaine Brown Ale (LOL) and some others i cant really remember. I didnt include them cause there so dam expensive. Were also limited to beer that is imported locally by other companies.

thats great, i've lived in boondall all my life up until a few weeks ago

and i just find out tiny works at taigum bottle-o, you could have given me sweet qgl discounts

TEDs, Colds or Crownies IMO.

Tooheys New / Pils / Extra Dry for the win!

not a fan of carlton cold, has a real yeast taste to it :s

toohey's pils is pretty good

Ihre Mutter spricht Englisch

Ich habe einen großen Hahn!

I have worked at taigum a few times. Although i Mainly work at the actual tavern bottle shop in brackenridge. I work in the drive thru most of the time. If you want some sweet service come see me :-).

notice he said service, not discount :(

Surely we should have some kind of secret handshake and nod for these bottleo hookups.. Common Tiny, make it happen.

notice he said service, not discount :(

noted :(

yea well i would go there for discount... altho i do try to avoid the scumjungle at all costs

maybe he means something else by 'service' ;)

Don't know if this has been posted before however;
