What beer are you drinking???

So Fuster and I are picking on Loki and the conversation gets round to beer. Fuster guides me to his pic in the shout box of a fine honey mead that Suicide put him on to.

This gets me all excited about beer again. I brew, I drink it and I teach other folks to brew.

So my question to you all is "What are you drinking when you play Exile?"

I'll kick it off.

It's fairly hot here in Tassie atm, with bushfires surrounding my town (Devonport) its time for a lager style beer with plenty of flavour and not to fizzy so that you can't punch down a couple every 10 minutes. Referring to the image below I'm necking Tiger Beer whilst looking at a picture of Fuster's honey mead.

Tiger is a fresh, crisp Singaporean beer with light fruity notes likely from Saaz Hops, it doesn't have a chemical aftertaste like mainstream Australian beers.

When playing ARAM 3 I have a 6y ready to rock.

I rate Tiger beer, I remember smashing a few six packs of them when I was at Phillip Island a few years ago, definitely tasty

Currently have my very first batch of homebrew (just a plain, semi dri semi sweet apple cider) cooking away, fermentation has just started and I'm keen as to bottle it/drink it (all 22 litres of it :D). After this I'll make some beer, and then a passionfruit cider. My local homebrew store had some of this passionfruit cider on tap and he gave me a couple of glasses of the stuff, nectar of the gods.

My go too beer when there is nothing that tickles my fancy at the bottleo is 150 lashes, crisp and fresh tasting, can't do too much of it in one hit though, a bit too fruity

Checked the gravity reading of the brew today, fermentation has definitely kicked off, and there were plenty of bubbles in the sample, did smell a bit sour though. Temperature is around 24 degrees which I'm hoping isn't too hot :/


Got a few of these today, not too bad for four bucks a pop, I reckon my brew will turn out pretty close to this stuff (if all goes to plan..)
