Boar's Rock Premium Lager

Post by anti-fsck »

Noticed this today in the local premium plonk shop, $10 for a half a dozen, so thought I'd grab a sampler.
It's a expat Canadian banker who owns a bulk winemaking business in South Australia's McLaren Vale that got sick of everyone asking him when the company would make wine under its own label, so brought out a Bavarian-style lager to shut everyone up.
Go figure ...

Dogger,

I doubt it is what you think it is, and it's not any good!

Too sweet, in my book.
