  • Thursday’s Sunday Beer

    I haven’t posted any beers for a long time. I drank less beer during 2020 for no particular reason (my alcohol intake didn’t go down). I guess it was easier to buy more wine less often. Anyway, here are two beers whose labels you will all appreciate, both from New Zealand brewers Behemoth. Both quite…

  • More adventures in soft drink

    Another wormhole in space has opened up and deposited US versions of carbonated drinks in the fridge of a local shop. This time the unlikely combination is Dr Pepper and Strawberries & Cream. Together they combine to make a drink that tastes more or less how I remember Dr Pepper is supposed to taste, I…

  • What are you drinking now…

    Raspberry no sugar coke. Honestly, it didn’t have enough raspberry flavour to really taste any different than regular no-sugar Coke. I thought raspberry might be a good mix because it goes so well with chocolate but then I remembered that Coke doesn’t have a lot in common with chocolate aside from being a dark brown…

  • More fizzy drink adventures

    This time intentional weirdness. A promotional “mystery” flavour. Vaguely citrus with a cream soda element, the colour of mouthwash. Essentially the taste you got when you were a kid and thought it might be amazing to mix two different flavours together and actually it was just disappointing.

  • Sunday Beer: Modus Future Factory IV

    Yes, another hazy IPA but a very nice one. A bit of a cut above some of the others I’ve had without being radically different. https://www.mobrewing.com.au/product/future-factory-iv/

  • Oh no, what am I drinking?

    The exploration of conceptual spaces is a vital role for this blog. One of these areas of inquiry is into the endless variation of lemony/limey flavoured drinks. Ironically, the lime-flavoured drink on offer today is America… Taco Bell Mtn Dew Baja Blast Yes, another odd American import that popped up randomly in a corner shop.…

  • Sunday Beer: Virtual Beer

    I thought Colt Barrel probably has his own craft beer brand (and also a brand of coffee beans). So I asked Midjourney to make me a picture of his beer can. It is interesting how puddinged it gets when there’s text involved. It was trying to make “Colt Barrel IPA” What I’m actually drinking is…

  • Sunday Beer: The Overlook NEIPA

    I’m not sure The Shining is an appropriate theme for a beer but what about the carpet from the hotel in The Shining? In its defence, the beer is from Katoomba which does have hotels with views over majestic valleys.

  • Sunday Beer: Strange Flux Hazy IPA

    From Hawkers Brewery in Melbourne: Tasty but basic hazy double IPA.

  • Sunday Beer: Australian Inland Ale

    Actual beer in an actual glass in an actual pub. The pub was in Paddington — not the bear but the posh suburb in Sydney. I mean, who knows, maybe the whole of Sydney is contained within Paddington Bear. Perhaps he contains whole universes. Short of putting the bear into a particle accelerator and letting…
