I know a guy who bought an $80 box of beer from a microbrewery in the Macedon Ranges and they all contained sanitiser! :? :shock:

Caused by the stuff being exposed to light (due to the clear glass) and a chemical reaction called "bananarama".

Toohey's do approx 32000 bottles per day during the peak season i.e. NOW - That's a lot of cleaning....... :shock:

I had a bottle of coopers sparkling a few months back and it was like popcorn, that buttery diacytal taste. Haven't had one since.
