Any recommendations for this weekend?

Been slaughtering myself on the trusty great northern and newtowner for the past couple months. Really open to any style of beer

Jap beers easy to drink dont taste like a watered down passion fruit iceblock if you like simple taste

IPAs are always fruity?

I can understand that comment being directed against those newfangled Hazy IPAs, the old school regular New England/West Coast jobs? Nah.
Every one I have tried has tasty fruity to me. Different levels of fruityness, but always fruity.

I am exactly the same. Struggle to enjoy an IPA but I'll slam XPAs
Maybe try a hazy IPA then if you like XPA. Sounds weird but give it a go. I just had a few Brooklyn hazy IPAs. I don’t usually like Brooklyn much but it was a decent beer

Enjoy. Yep even more reason to try some hazys then. Some good stuff in Aus & NZ but I prefer the U.S stuff

The bottle shop on Klein's Rd Northmead always have something weird and wonderful for me to try so I'll shoot down and see what's what

Great stuff. I’m sure you’ll find some really nice beers. I personally think the higher the alcohol content the nicer the beer is a lot of the time. Just more flavour

And Okinawa dry very easy to drink if that's 2 watery

If you want a nice beer that taste like beer kozel would be the go obviously not jap but good beer flavour without fruity shit

Also love this , brewery is nearly 1000years old they been making beer since 768 or something and doesn't taste like a hipster shook up a bottle of passion pop and stuck it up his arse and shat it out and decided to call it beer, ( no offense to hipster who like putting passion pop bottles up their arses and thinking it's beer)
