I know it's OT but while we're talking drinks can anyone recommend a 2%ish cider? I had some in France that was delicious but never really seen something similar here.
I found this but not really about to drop £52 on it

cheers will look out for Kölsch style...suspected a combination of fashion and harder to brew
Mountain Goat is one of the nearest craft breweries to me and their lager is now brewed by Asahi at the VB plant and distributed in huge volumes I guess it helps fund the continued existence of the craft brewery then its as sort of OK thing...good news is number of new places opening up continues and i still haven't got round all the localish (that is cyclable from home) ones yet... must try harder
@reeksy - thanks for clicky link - Bad Shepherd is on my way back from the bay and the now not so younger antigee plays beer league Ice Hockey and Bad Shepherd is a main sponsor and they deserve my support
edit and might head up to Noosa for some spring riding so notes taken
Sweet. Let me know if you want a tour guide 😊
My local brewery do a cracking Pilsner which has the additional benefits of looking cool when you take it out on the hill (it's branded as "Distant Hills") and being available for nationwide delivery: https://www.howardtownbrewery.com/shop/p/distant-hills-pilsner
Bellfield Brewery in Edinburgh are currently doing 4 different varieties of lager.
That new furphy lager is pretty good for a regular in the fridge type beer.
Where abouts in Vic are you? I think places like stomping ground are a bit cool for a lager but somewhere like moon dog would do one wouldn't they?
Or just go daaaan the pab instead of a brewery and have a Carlton 😉
^^^Melbourne...leafy SE innerish suburbs
Memory says Stomping Ground do a good Pilsner...Moon Dog's mega world beach warehouse thing is 2minutes off the trail for me if heading home from riding out north and like all the "big guys" do a lager plus something described as "tropical lager" so 2 out of think 50+ beers
Was asking because noticed a newly opened taproom at Deeds Brewery (Glen Iris and 30m off the main easterly trail out of the city) doesn't have any lager style brews same as another small brewery I recently found 50m away from my return route from building thirst in the Dandenongs add that to the guy behind the bar at Beechworth Brewery looking like I'd asked if I could toss his dog off when all I'd asked if had any other lager's than the one I'd already had - genuine question fashion or harder to brew - answer seems to be bit of both
Good news is that someone posted a useful link to Professor Pilsner and a big thankyou as listed a newly opened brewery near the Frankston trails which does a pilsner and I'm going soon
