Toinho 2,210 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 We generally don’t do schooners in Perth. Pint or Middie. But then you find some fancy bar who is like no we do a schooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus you have goon which is essentially our white lightening/special brew. Sydney is terrible to party in, or at leats was, lockdown laws were stupid and ruined Kings Cross Jesus no jugs here for that! also on the schooner debate pretty sure pints are rare in Melbourne and Sydney? @Devil-Dick Willie @Harry could be wrong!!

I like flake but that is probably because I'm australian and that is typical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind tiger. For Asian beers, Asahi, Bintang, Kirin, Sapporo, Tiger, even leo Chang is to be avoided. It is known even in its own country as "Elephants piss". Very patriotic. For Australian beers, they mostly blow ass. VB, Tooheys new, XXXX, Byron, great northern, Crown, carlton dry... all dogshit Coopers, Furphy, Kaiju all very solid to be fair. Tooheys extra dry is drinkable, but so is ass juice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best Southeast Asian beer, imo, and it doesn't have that sweetness to it like most other beers from the region. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
