If it was a boxer, it would be Gasius Clay. If it was a jazz musician, it would be Fizzy Gillespie and It’s personality would be ‘bubbly’. This is a long winded and pale ale inspired way of saying that the Coastal Brewery Boomerang Beach Pale Ale is slightly gassy, in fact, way too gassy.…
If you haven’t heard of Mahou before, you’d be forgiven for wondering if it was a beer made in Hawaii. It’s not. It’s a beer made by the Spanish in their capital city, Madrid. To be honest, I’d never heard of the beer until I was lucky enough to spend some time in Madrid on…
“Doss Blockos”. That’s the name of the beer we’re reviewing today, not some new phrase that the Spanish have invented for themselves…. East 9th Brewing Company, based out of Melbourne, are the dudes responsible for this drop of Pale Lager and checking out their website, I reckon you’d have to say they are a bit…
If you’re one of those people who think gin is only a summer drink, it’s time for a rethink! The latest boom in craft gin is precisely because gin is arguably the most versatile spirit out there. Drink it neat, with mixers (not just tonic) or in a multitude of cocktails, there really is a…
After browsing through the local bottle shop for some beer to drink while on holidays, I came across the six pack of the Cricketers Arms Session Ale. Having never had a Cricketers Arm beer, I thought I’d give them a go. Plus, the bottle shop I was in had them on sale, so why not?…

Another beer review for you this week, courtesy of one of experts, Andy. I have to admit, when it comes to choosing a wine, I’m more likely to pick up a bottle mostly due to a label that catches my eye. Not the name of the winery but more the label’s design. And so it…
Ladies and Gentlemen, fans of Dads Stuff, drinkers of beer, please welcome our newest beer reviewer to the team… Dan! Take it away sir… Matilda Bay Brewing Co is more famously known for its Fat Yak, Lazy Yak and Beez Neez offerings. I hadn’t even heard of Ruby Tuesday before I stumbled across it at…
Happy 4th of July to all our American readers. It’s only right that we celebrate with you, by reviewing a beer from the U S of A… it would be rude not to wouldn’t it? Speakeasy beers come from the West Coast of the America, in fact they were founded 20 years ago in San Francisco.…
