Mick Fanning and a few of his mates decided to make beer .
Problem is his Balter XPA is the best beer I have ever had , by a long shot . In fact I have problems drinking anything else . All other beers seem wrong , even my favourites on tap.
So drink it and stop complaining you say .
Its $ 60 for a small 16 can slab .
Im thinking of doing a road trip just to taste it on tap
Beware ... once you try it your hooked .

ps : I'm drinking it now , again....

First world problems Imax1
I had a work event in Brisbane during November, took the family for few days holiday. The website says they do tours on a Friday (which is vaguely work related). Needed few more days to get there.
So you driving for pallet! Surely volume discount applies!

You have to have a lot of respect for the people who breed hops. Flowers look simple by comparison, just a matter of looking and liking and then mating. With hops you have to make a brew before you can decide which vines to breed from, and the decision is a matter of taste Q instead of eye Q.
It must go up a whole level of complexity when you breed weed or 'shrooms.

That's a thought , I understand breeding weed but how do you breed a spore ?

A great way is too invest a craploada money on a NFT hydroponic system , grow all your apiaceae crops in them and one day watch your entire investment collapse in front of your eyes-
you have successfully bred spores

Modus Operandi Pale Ale is a must try, slightly better than Balter and Sierra Nevada.

Start brewing your own. Ive got a balter XPA clone in ferment at the moment.
$40 for 5 gallons/19litres

Balter are awesome beers!

It's worth getting into home brewing, a quality product doesn't cost a great deal & it;s a fun hobby.

I have even grown my own hops this year, managed to collect about 300 grams dried, not bad for Queensland.

The most enjoyable beer I have ever tried is Quiet Deeds -Juice Train a New England IPA

There's something wrong with your beer brov... it sprouted all this white stinky stuff

And don't bloody try to say it's floral aroma from the hops

Rellie I think you will need a independent product tester to make such a claim

modus pale was ok but their IIIPA , porter and red ipa are even better .



Balter is over rated

Learn to put your race fins in the correct direction before you criticise mate.

Its painful watching you go around in circles.
