Demo'd a local brew the other day called Bighead,from Burleigh Brewing Co. Top notch like its western cousin little creatures,but $20 cheaper

$53 bucks from bws (no jeep affiliation)

What local drop do u sink with mates after a session? Extra points if it gives a competitive edge by pregame workout

Great Northerns.... good stuff

My home brewed Ginger Beer.... powerful stuff, my neighbours had trouble making it back over the fence after the last session, both citing "numb legs" as the problem....


And my latest (just sampling my first batch now) home brewed fejoa prison brew, tasty..... will wait till end of flagon till I estimate it powerfullness.



If splashing out for the bought stuff, any given craft brew on special at the supee is good with me!

Aaaaand to confirm, fejoa homebrew was awesome!


For you kiwis out there: Take the pulp out of a bunch of fejoas and chuck it in a pot with a splash of water.

Boil on low for an hour or 2.

Sieve off the juice into a plastic soft drink bottle.

Add a teaspoon of yeast (Yellow label bread yeast will work, or you can use brewers yeast).

Add a couple of tablespoons of sugar if you want to make it extra potent.

Release the pressure in the bottle a few times a day for the first few days, until it stops fermeting (takes about 5 days).

Drink it, add soda water to mellow it out a bit.


You could do a bigger version in a fermenting bucket with an airlock, but you'd have to secondary ferment it in the bottle to make it fizzy.


And flyingcab, yes my ginger beer is awesome. Sorts the men from the boys, and costs about 50c per big bot

I had a fejoa tree at my old house. Neighbour used to make awesome jam from them. Be an interesting brew!

I miss Boags St Goerge. Now days any ol beer or a Canadian & dry/Captain Morgans & dry

Matso's "Session" ale

You'd have to have a week long session on it to feel any effect, matsos worst beer to date imho

Thanks, I'm gonna give that a shot. Sounds more useful than fejoa jam

I was going to ask what makes it "prison brew" but I think you've just answered that, sounds good though

A couple xxxx golds on the beach while packing up works for me cheers

a beer you need to put lime in imho is bollocks, even the Mexicans recon its cat piss

That Ginger beer sounds epic, where can I get some .

I'm more of a whiskey guy.

Corona
Chang
1662
Matso "Smokey Bishop"
White rabbit "dark ale"

What about a pre-session beer? Anyone into doing that?

I think if you don't overdo it that a small drink before boardsports actually relaxes your muscles a bit and lowers your inhibitions a little opening you up to try new tricks.

Always smash a couple of cans of barbed wire prior to an arvo sess. Like my pre game warm up

... yep, me too, 4 is my perfect number to keep the ratio of attempts to actual high-ish, any more and I clearly kite too relaxed to give a sh!t ie fall alot.

Truth be know, I have been known to have a few before, during and after!

My usual beer is Heinieken when home, Bintang in Indo, 333 in Vietnam but I also believe, "when in Rome do as the Romans" so what ever the local is, I'm in!!!! It's all good!
