The funny thing is that my boss is a member of a country club just north of us called "Royal Melbourne".
It's not the original, but it's a very nice course.

Is that true? Melbourne is so desperate for recognition it would be front page news down there in Mexico as we call it.

Here, it's considered the plebs' beer of choice because they don't have to remember its name, just its initials.

Same with Queensland's favourite beer, which is called XXXX, because they can't even spell the word beer in Queensland.

beers do go off - I think VB has.

I'm drinking Toohey's New now - they seem to have got the sweetness back. Much better than VB for mine.

Resch's Pilsener was the beer drinkers choice a few years ago - I hear nothing of it now.

I, naturally, stick to Peroni. Stella Artois at a pinch.

Actually, a bistro has opened up in Neutral Bay with a connection to a German brewery. Been there a couple of times, tried a couple of the German wheat beers. Very very nice, too.

i have had peroni, and stella....and toohey too i believe...but i can't remember what toohey we carried.....many aussie beers were continuously out of stock

Ya German or Belgian beer is the closest to Australian.

British lager tastes like cat's piss.

War4ever · July 11, 2003, 00:55

i like german beers....belgium, netherland... heck i like alot of beer.....

tucher dunkel hefeweizen is a great beer

Dutch beer is good too. Most Asian beers, hell, any beer.

I love sitting in bars - any kind.

I think he just read the post and assumed it was hydey.

finbar · July 11, 2003, 04:28

I only realised it wasn't Hydey when I noticed there weren't 3,000 smilies and the syntax was half decent.

Hydey · July 11, 2003, 07:22

Hey who pushed the flush button and turned finbar on?

Now I wonder why Toohey's lady beer tastes sweeter than VICTORIA BITTER

Gee, making fun of war4 for two posts in a row, and you do three in a row.

Hydey · July 11, 2003, 08:10

Yes, I guess it can be tricky.

Hydey · July 11, 2003, 08:42

tell me, how did you do that?

DrSpike · July 11, 2003, 08:52

Just use the same layout you'd use if you 'reply with quote'..........the code is there, just use the same code again with a different quote.

Hydey · July 11, 2003, 08:53

I can do that, just not from three different posts.

rah · July 11, 2003, 08:55

Actually, if you're too lazy to write the HTML code you can just hit reply to the first post. Paste it into a text editor, reply, the back up and hit reply to the next post, paste it, repeat repeat repeat. Easy, even for the technically challanged.
