    A long, long time ago Flying Dog used to be available around here. Will it get distributed here again? Or has it been lost in the entire Innspire debacle?

    Don't know but Gonzo was indeed very tasty (had to order that one from New Zealand)

    Innspire screwed that bad boy up.

    Hmm, Not trying to hijack the thread but does anyone know any other beers that Innspire had that are no longer in Australia?

    Might just be it as the new importer has picked up a lit of the old innspire range

    Innspire stopped bringing it in like 2 or 3 years ago, IIRC. Gonzo and Raging Bitch are quality. I see the Calibre dude around a bit, I'll ask him if he's likely to try and get it back in Oz.

    From my understanding FD were very much soured on Australia due to Innspire.

    Innspire had a rare talent for screwing over both brewers and consumers

    From everything I got told that stuff was all grey. Tomme said none of his beer ever made it to Australia. They are looking at it in the next 2 years though.

    funny not what the email i got said after i emailed them when i got the 2 year old bottles from beer masons.

    got told they sold it to beermasons for a beer club but had no idea that it was stored for so long and still being sold 2 years past its best.

    saying that i have enjoyed a fair few of the ones i did get early in the piece. look forward to them being here properly

    Fair enough. I heard Tomme say otherwise. What did they say about the 2 year thing?

    were not happy, not happy at all but were glad that someone let them know what was going on.
    i think because they were told that it was for a club but didnt explain that they would also be selling it as retail.
