Gallipoli Grog tasted, partay!
The Aussie Lager brew from last month was definitely good enough to drink, even after only 3 weeks. We thought it could be crap because it didn’t taste too good to start with but it has matured very well!
We polished off about 10 bottles on Saturday for our friend’s engagement party which was great. After we spent the night drinking in the park with a small fire, huge sound system and good company. At some point the cops came around to check on us but since no complaint had been received they left us alone!
It’s now Monday, and I still feel pretty ordinary. Probably because of the range and quantity of different beers drunken throughout the evening.

2nd Tasting (oh my this is pretty good!)
I was so grateful for a beer when I got off the boat today. We were racing, and doing well when suddenly (ok not that fast but we were a little unprepared) a storm came in looking all nasty but really cool. Then the race with 10-15 knot winds became a white-out and 40 knots and we were being pelted by ice cold hail that hurts upon multiple application!
We opened the 2nd batch which was a Cascade ‘Spicy Ghost’ Draught brew, and when poured into a skinny glass was mostly head. It was still immature to taste but some more time in the fridge will fix that. Fortunately the Chief Brewer is busy with exams for a few weeks so we will let our brews mature in his fridge.
We went back to the Extra Dry brew from the first batch, and this has turned into a fine drinking beer. So fine, we drank some more! And then we found that these new Curios’s (wild berry flavour, that is supposedly for people who skip breakfast when really they are sweet sugary chips rather than salty ones) go with our beer, and both taste SO fine.
