named after the street number of the brewery, westend 107 has a lot more going for it than their draught, but not by much i tell you.

just another poor attempt to put a spin on the usual boring aussie lager style, it looks like any other. another pilsener that claims the use of saaz hops, but unlike say, tooheys pils, there is actually a trace of detectable saaz in there. ill give em a marginally better score for that. you can smell it and even taste it! alas the beer behind it tastes alot like dishwater. negligible presence of any malt, a little bit of rice there, but basically tasted like theyd gone a bit crazy on the cane sugar. surprisingly the little bit of hops i could get a hold of here totally saved this beer from total ignominity.

try 107 only if you want to see whether there are actually saaz you can detect in there as a drinking game. apart from that, you can get a six of pilsener urquells for about the same price. what more needs saying?
