Beverages and Blades - Traditional of Course

Here's an option from Leinenkugel's that I had not seen until this fall. I think it tastes really good, and very "stout-like", but part of the "stout experience" for me has always been the very dark color of the beer. This isn't the first non-dark stout I've had, and I've enjoyed the taste of all that I've tried, but I wonder what the point of "blond" or amber stouts is.

Find it amusing that Aussies name beers after ex Prime Ministers :D Can't imagine the French getting a wine together named after Macron, unless it was vinegar 🤣 Still, wasn't the late President Jimmy Carter's brother advertising beer at one time? Is there a wine or vodka in Aus named in honour of Gough Whitlam? Should be as he advanced the cause of republicanism and got dismissed by Queen Hag II puppet the governor general for his pains. :rolleyes:

Will, you have quite a memory. Billy Beer was 1977. I was 9 years old so I never tasted it. I saw some cans that friends collected over the years.IMG_3836.jpeg

Will that is because most politicians aren't beer drinking legends.

The fastest person to down a yard glass – early years​


Hawke’s reputation as a beer lover began while at Oxford University in the UK. In 1954, he sculled a yard glass (two and a half pints) of beer in just eleven seconds – an achievement that earned him a spot in the Guinness Book of Records.


His beer appreciation continued throughout his time at university and early years as a union rep.


While he made the responsible decision to put his beer drinking tendencies aside throughout his nine-year leadership of Australia, his various appearances throughout the period often involved beer drinking supporters. Even once his leadership was over, Hawke was right back at it, and his reputation as a man of the people continued
