Sydney Morning Herald Beer Review

Postby bolwell » Wednesday Feb 13, 2008 11:38 am

Article in yesterdays Herald by Willie Simpson reviewing some of those new lemon and salt flavoured beers. He was somewhat less than flattering. Also called into question the ethics/legality of naming a beer Bavaria when it is made in Holland rather than Germany

What about a certain PA claiming to be made from the 'crystal clear water of the snowy mountains,' but is actually from Newcastle?

The Bavaria Brewery has been operating under that name in Holland for close to 300 years. It's not like it is some modern marketing gimmick to help sell the beer.

:D No, it's a 300 year old marketing gimmick to help sell beer.
