Have you ever noticed how small the opening is to the top of the bottle of Asahi? No? Just me? Next time you have a bottle, look! Asahi Super Dry is one of those beers that tastes delicious on tap in one of those posh glasses out of the fridge at the pub. But I…
CRICKETERS ARMS SPEARHEAD PALE ALE REVIEW
I remember first trying Cricketers Arms Spearhead Pale Ale in Melbourne ages ago. When I found it in NSW again recently I had to try it again. From memory it was really good, and that was the case again when this time. It’s not as strong in flavour as other Pale Ales, but it’s got…
MEETING THE MAN BEHIND RIVER COTTAGE AUSTRALIA
You may have seen him on the Lifestyle Channel as the man who lives at the incredible River Cottage Australia. Paul West is a not just a TV host, expert chef and budding farmer, he’s also a Dad. We sat down with Paul to ask about life on the South Coast of NSW and how he’s adapted…
3 PUB CIRCUS – HAIRY MARY PALE ALE
If you’re the type of person that buys a new beer because of the label, then it’s likely that at some point you will find yourself with Hairy Mary Pale Ale in your fridge. It looks great, but sadly that’s the high point. I found this pale ale pretty bland in flavour compared to others out…
LORD NELSON OLD ADMIRAL REVIEW
Dark, caramely, smooth bittery flavours. This is as tasty as it is thirst quenching. I would go as far as saying this is my favourite Lord Nelson brew. There’s no bitter aftertaste, but there’s plenty of taste when you drink this delicious beer. Lots of malt, almost a sweetness to it, I would highly recommend…
A SPEAKER THAT SWIMS? JBL CHARGE 3 REVIEW
There’s so many different bluetooth speakers on the market these days, it can be hard to choose something that’s right for you and your family. At Dads Stuff HQ we’ve tried a few different well-known brands, some of which are better than others. When we were asked to take a look at the JBL Charge…
YOUNG HENRYS HOP ALE REVIEW
If, like me, you’re in your late thirties, have a child, and aren’t exactly ‘pub fit’ then you can definitely be forgiven for feeling a little light headed after a bottle of this Young Henry’s Hope Ale. It’s delicious, packed full of flavour but at 6% made me notice the strength as soon as I…
A WEEKEND ROAD TRIP TO DUBBO
There’s so many options for weekend road trips out of Sydney, most people head to the coast, north or south, and it’s quite understandable. The beaches are great, there’s so many of them, and the roads are (usually) pretty good. Heading west is usually restricted to the Blue Mountains, but once you cross them and…
MURRAY’S ANGRY MAN PALE ALE REVIEW
For a beer that brand itself as being a ‘knock out cold’ it’s surprisingly mild in flavour. Saying that, Murray’s Angry Man Pale Ale isn’t unpleasant, it’s just not one of those face slappingly fruity pale ales which are prevalent these days. It’s tasty and light on the palette, would match well with most foods…
PRANCING PONY AMBER ALE REVIEW
I’m not usually one to categorise beers on when you should drink them because of the weather, mainly because I don’t want to miss out on my favourite brew because it’s just clicked over 20 degrees. I will however make an exception for this Prancing Pony Amber Ale. That’s because it’s deliciously warming and tasty,…
