I do a fair bit of work with engineers on engineering projects...

There's 1 batch of smart engineers that I know. They designed, engineered and developed their very own brewery. They also provide beer at special rates to contractors and staff. They are also a bit lax at sending out the invoices to staff. So far, I'm probably a slab in profit per month....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^I'm very envious you are a lucky bloke. The most I get is a discount on my Americano at Wild Bean.

Sounds good Chrispy.

The Heineken Keg on sale at $33 is good fun too. Available at most large local outlets.

Jeebers sounds like antipodean prohibition .. Mind you I heard how much beer costs over your way. However I think its expensive here, I miss my 4 pack of John Smiths for £1.88..I don't miss much else about the UK though.

Bit early for a beer isn't it Chrispy? I just came back in from a surf but mine wasn't a successful one as I got caught on the inside and got smashed a little, my board pulled away from me and came back at a rapid rate of knots and belted me in the mouth. I put a couple of teeth through my bottom lip lots of claret for a small wound..ouch!

Thats no good Kagey! Hope its not too sore and expensive !

A friend of mine has been practising his brewing for a while now and has the little creatures pale ale and copper pale ale almost perfect. Apparently there is a very vibrant on-line community with every one helping each other out - must be like The Breeze I was blown away by his products last time I visted him and can not wait for the next time - cheap as chips to produce as well. My previous experience of home brew 15 yrs ago was not pleasent.

The beer would be good antiseptic for the wound though.
