BREWDOG

ZEITGEIST

Get a few of these bad boys in your beer cellar

in preparation for winter, this beer will warm

you up and rip your tastebuds a new one!

You’ll get the Chocolate & Coffee predominately

on the palate, with a pleasant creamy mouth-feel

to finish the job..

Serving suggestion: let this one sit out of the

fridge for 10 minutes or so to bring

out some of those toasty malt flavours.

SINGLE --- $3.99

4 PACK --- $14.99

MAC’S BLACK

This New Zealand Brew is another good

one to put away for the Winter chill..

Don’t be scared off by the idea of ‘Black Beer’

if you’re not a stout person, this beer has

a inviting hop bitterness that backs onto

a long lingering dark malt character

that powers on through the tasting.

And for this price, it’s an absolute bargin!

WAS $59.99 Per Carton of 24

NOW $34.99

PER CARTON!

$9.99 PER 6 PACK!

Cheers & Happy Drinking,

The Awesome Foursome

Nillumbik Beer Bulletin Four

A while ago there was some debate online as to who

might qualify for Australia’s Top Beer! The Competition

was fierce, but I have short-listed these four beers

 in the hope that you will decide for yourself.

*Also, this is probably a good time to mention

that we have started a beer Blog

@ www.buybeersonline.blogspot.com.

It will contain most of the information that you

already receive in the beer bulletin emails, but also

a few extra reviews and some new beer additions added

to the shelves of Nillumbik from week to week

McLaren Vale Ale

In January, the Vale Ale was voted winner of the

hottest 100 at St. Kilda’s Local taphouse ‘Spectapular.’

If this isn’t proof enough of quality, Chef’s & critics

alike are raving about the beers’ balance and for lack

of a better word, “matchability” with food.

“A great beer that will refresh, satisfy and cleanse

all at the same time. Award winning,

I think so.” -According to www.beerbureau.com

Four Pack $16.99

Carton Price $59.99

Feral Hop Hog

Classic full-flavoured American Style IPA, this one really

packs a punch. Great hop-driven bitterness teamed with

a floral bouquet that opens up nicely with bitter orange

zest when served in a Tulip or Pilsner style glass.

Great anytime or enjoy this beer with a hot Indian Curry.

Four Pack $16.99

Carton Price $59.99

Stone & Wood Pacific Ale

Voted No.1 in Australia’s Best Beers ‘Critics Choice

TOP 100’ This beer has a massive drinkability factor.

With the addition of Galaxy Hops & dry hopping in

its final stages, this beer brings about a distinctively

fruity aroma. Perfect as a session beer, or get yourself

into some of the Stone & Wood lager.

Six Pack $19.99

Carton Price $69.99

Little Creatures Pale Ale

I believe we’re all familiar with Little Creatures, anyone

In the craft beer scene will sympathise with me when I

say that LCPA has been key to the conversion of many

‘old school’ beer minds, and will always be remember

as one of the first big classic Pale Ale styles to hit the

Australian craft beer scene.

Six Pack $19.99

Carton Price $64.99
