Alvin be like Oprah all year round, handing out free steaks, chocolate and beer

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

No u

Probably going to downgrade and invest any profit

how cute

i have heard much of this 'new vb is ok' talk... must test this... for academic sake, of course

it's the old VB again

they dropped the alcohol percentage to 4.7% to avoid tax which was the "new formula"

but now they have put it back to the old recipe and are just absorbing the extra tax.... coincidentally this happened just after a price rise

[Birds]

Can't entirely hate VB; the foul taste made Carlton palatable by contrast when I was a teenager.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

LOOOOOL

[r34abz]

Corona pls.

[Leroy Peterson]

almost finished a corona slab got from the boss at christmas. used to avoid it, but its not as bad as i thought (imported stuff anyway).

on topic: moscato in a can. will try it if I come across it

[westvicr34]

I usually drink Heineken, the only CUB beer I would drink is Carlton draught

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

Been on the Oetty's for a while now

$29 a slab and I drink a slab a week

based on DM's full price for draught that's a saving of $830 per year for a better beer with no preservatives.

f**king win

that is damn cheap,

will give it a try next week

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

yup... it's cheap cheap beer in germany already, and they direct import it, so no middleman costs.

and even the cheapest german beer is better than 99% of aust beer...

[Leroy Peterson]

slab a week? I'd be adding up other things before thinking of costs savings per year

[Plattsy]

29 bucks a slab?! im in.

shall grab a few for bday party this weekend!

bbq at mine on the 11th.

[TiTAN]

he is saying you are an alco.

[Plattsy]

thats only 3.5 beers a night. thats reasonable.

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

he is saying you are an alco.

I realise... I wanted further elaboration though

I only drink probably 15-20 a week and the rest are mrs/mates etc

but I do drink a bottle of scotch a month which is in reality only 1 a day

[HEKT1K]

Leroy probably hasn't seen you irl Hamish haha

on topic: moscato in a can. will try it if I come across it

6 months ago I was talking to a Treasury Estate rep who said they were trying to push moscato onto the younger crowd. I made the prediction that one day it will make it's way into nightclubs as an on-tap, women's counterpart to the men's cider craze. Canning it is half way there. I wonder if my prediction will come true...

I confess to liking moscato and late harvest. If I recall correctly, it was originally pushed as a nightclub/bar drink but never took off. Maybe the timing wasn't right or they didn't have the marketing of today.
