Hi Kane. Thanks for this list. It’s excellent. There are some absolutely superb IPAs here. So proud of what’s coming out of Australian breweries at the minute. That 777 IPA is awesome, as is the Viking and Holgate’s Road Trip too. And I could drink that Imperial Winston all day! Thanks again for adding these.
Cheers – Jim

-Riverside 777 IIPA
-Bentspoke ‘cluster 8’ IPA
-Hopdog ‘horns up’ rye IPA
-Mountain goat ‘rare breed’ rye IPA
-Shenanigans ‘imperial Winston’ IIPA
-Ekim ‘Viking’ IPA
-Holgate ‘road trip’ American IPA

Just to name a few! 🙂

Hi Stuart – thanks for the chuckle. You’re absolutely right, the Four Pines Kolsch isn’t a pilsner, it’s a golden ale. My mistake, which I’ve changed now. Just so you know though, this post wasn’t “sponsored” or just sponsored for that matter. Wish it was. Wouldn’t being paid by all these breweries be marvellous? I’m glad to think you saw my preferences as extreme though. I must have a very forceful writing style. Just so you know, your URL isn’t working. Should probably fix that up, mate.
Cheers – J

Nor do 4 Pines actually use Kolsch yeast to make this.. and thus technically not making your favourite pilsner a kolsch. Or even what makes your favourite Kolsch, an actual Kolsch.

You gottit, kiddo! Yes, a light, clean-flavoured lager or a spritely pilsner is a great starting point. Think of it as a sparkling wine of the beer world! Mind you, I think you’d like the right golden ale might be a good fit for you too. Nice sweetness, not too hoppy. I believe the James Squire’s and Little Creatures’ golden ales are quite approachable – and easier to find than some smaller craft brews.

I’ve had the odd beer here and there (usually on a hot day), but it’s good to know what I should actually order so I know I’ll enjoy it. Lager or pilsner seems to be the go for this novice, right boss?
