    We have had the random keg from Seven Sheds & Van Dieman, but not in the last year or so at least. The bottled stuff doesn't make it to Sydney. I do like the big format bottles from Seven Sheds.

    >Red Hill Double Barrell Imperial Stout<

    Is that one of the infamous barrel aged versions?

    If so, then the question bodes............................


    Can I have it?

    Yes you can have it. Yes, it is one of the BA versions of the beer.

    Down to 4 boxes left. One should land on Monday.

    Still waiting word on the last box to go out.

    Good, quality boxes so far.
    Should have some boxes arriving this week, if not today. 4 People left who have not gotten their boxes.
    3 NSW people, and 1 WA person left to get boxes.

    Just been bombed with an awesome box from sinkas. Thanks Case! First box i've received from Australia Post in ages that required them to put "heavy" on it, when i opened it i could see why:

    The Beers:
    • Sando Stout (never heard of this Sri Lankan stout - with 2004 on the label - that says "can work as a mild relaxant and give a very satisfying sensuous experience"...almost sounds like a happy ending)
    • Little Creatures Pale Ale
    • Blackwoods Meadery Dry White Mead 2005
    • Matilda Bay Barking Flamingo
    • Bootleg Oatmeal Stout
    • Swan Valley Sorachi Ace Saison (the experimental batch from an unnamed Swan Valley Brewery...another beer i never thought i'd get a chance to try, cool!)
    • Bootleg Raging Bull
    • Billabong Blonde
    • Nogne O Red Horizon (blown away and scared by this at the same time!)
    • Feral Golden Ace
    • Billabong Nelson Sauvin Ale
    • Feral Hop Hog (want)
    The Swag:

    • 2 x Duckstein 500ml German steins!!!
    • The Monk USA Beer Week T-Shirt (awesome!!)
    • Gage Roads Playing Cards
    • Weyermann Malting Company pen
    • BFM Coaster
    Blown away by this!! Thanks again!

    Just opened up the Red Horizon can and its a homebrewed Barleywine inside which will be great to try. Possibly a starter at a future Barleywine tasting!!

    I'm not sure if they still operate, there's plenty of comings and goings that are hard to keep track of.
