Weihenstephaner weissebier seems, really good though I'll have to order that if I am ever able to find it in the middle of nowhere Indiana.

www.bevmo.com has it and will ship to IN.

Double bastard and Bevmo, thanks! I'm back in a college town, and I need something to bring to the parties to avoid cups full of miller lite. Bevmo even has some double bastard for 7 bucks, nice.

BevMo is amazing. I have another liquor store like that (BevMo is pretty common in California) near me that is better, but only because they carry liquor that is harder to find.

Just got back home from a work trip to delightful (cough) Geelong where I was hosting a science of beer event.

We got a brewer in to help us out, the beers he makes are seriously good.

Red Duck
www.redduckbeer.com.au

Very few retailers outside of Vic, but well worth hunting down imho.

As thanks to us for getting him involved he gave me an a coworker a sixpack each.... might also have been because he said he'd most likely never distribute to SA. So looking forward to tucking into it. (Yeah only a sixpack, we had to fly home and couldn't carry any more)

I can really recommend the Pale Ale and Indian Pale Ale, both seriously good. He also had a new one he's done, rhubarb and raspberry beer. Sounds odd but is very good, especially if you know anyone (females) who "don't like beer". Surprised a lot of people today with that one.

He also gave me a bottle of wort....... gee thanks!

We had an international beer judge in to help us out too and he was loving, properly loving, these beers.

Well worth checking out for the Australians.

As soon as the sun starts shining, I can't stop drinking these bad boys:





I've had a bunch of them this weekend and have been pretty hungover, but it was totally worth it.

I fucking LOVE Hoegaarden

It's one of my favourites, yet not popular with most of my friends. An acquired taste for a beer, I guess.

Do you prefer them with or without a slice of lemon?

For sure. I had some in Japan once. Utterly foul stuff!

Without, I throw it down my neck as it was meant to be.

My favourite is:





This is another one i enjoy... during my stay in belgium i tested a lot of their most notably ones but i didn't find the award winning "Delerium Tremens" as impressive.

I think German/Dutch beers are my favourites, excluding the Adelscott which is french, if you like whiskey and you like beer this is your best bet.

You're not missing out. Weihenstephaner and Erdinger are superior to Paulaner. Probably Franziskaner, too, but that's debateable.

I just had an Erdinger with dinner, it was delicious.

Yes, this shit is great. I've had it a couple of times.



I tried a huge amount of good and bad beers last year, actually. Some I can remember:

















Dreher, a Hungarian beer is really excellent, I wish I could find it more often:



I'll be happy if I never drink another pilsener again. So sick of that watery taste, and that even includes the good Czech ones like Urquell.

Last year I also tried a lot of different kinds in Belgium from boutique breweries, including trappist and lambic (natural yeast insemination), and none of them really did it for me. I just don't like Belgian-style beers, really.

At the moment, I'm really digging these two Polish drops, which were a 2010 discovery also:





Also, this is nice:



But, if I'm being really honest, these days I'm just as happy with one of these (+vodka) as I am with any beer:



I do not understand why this product doesn't exist worldwide.

I've tried Franziskaner now, and also some sort of Paulaner. I'd have to agree with you.

How do you rank the Schneider Weisse beers?
