at a recent festival of the sausage we opened a couple of two/two and a half year old beers, they had held up really well especially considering that they had just been kept in an outside shed etc etc.

I just bottled into a case of coronas.
Isn't it good to watch. I'd never seen the rush of bubbles when capping.
The labels will spoil the colour. Might need to make a batch of strip labels...
By the way Yardy...

found a couple of longies the other day on a job site. the bobcat mustve dug them up. they were full of dirt (what a surprise) and had the dates on the bottle. 1961 and 1958. The bottles have "this bottle is the property of the NSW bottle company pty ltd" engraved on them. havent used them yet. have soaked in washing detergent, napisan overnight and bicarb as ive got no bottlebrush yet. could take years to clean

I did a brew of pilsner at Billabong Brewing in Myaree (Perth) about 18 months ago. The staff there said that the beer MUST be kept refrigerated or it will go off..................
Bollocks to that I thought, a bit of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in the bottles will keep it preserved (acts as an oxygen scavenger). Being the slacker that I am, I didn't bother with the vit. C in the end & have kept a couple of doz. bottles in my bar for all that time at room temperature. I cracked a few the other night & they tasted fine to me, although there is a hint of cloves in the taste.
