ALDI beer - tried it?
« on: Oct 10, 2006, 08:42PM »
Honestly, it's not too bad at all, and who could complain? 24 bottles of light for $17, and that "Schloss" isn't bad for the $ either. wouldnt go near the spirits though, they'd be like guzzling draino i'm sure :P

Where do you get that stuff? Aldi supermarkets?

Supermarkets in Qld never have bottle shops in them, something to do with licencing laws :-\

How much is a slab of Cascade or Boags Draught  (or premo) in victoria?

Average prices of beer in southern tas are:

Cascade/Boags Draught:  $33

Carlton Draught: $35
Victoria Bitter: $35ish
Carlton Cold: $36ish
Tooheys Extra -just for da street cred- Dry: $39ish
Corona, cos its what all da metros drink : $ noidea/nocare


oh, and never forget that tassie supplies about 80% of the hops to breweries in australia ;)

You'd pay $40 for a slab of Cascade Premium or Boags Premium...  can get boags draught for $30 sometimes on special.

Carlton is normally under $35, sometimes $30
VB, no idea... tastes like piss anyway!
Carlton Cold, right on $30 most of the time
Extra Dry can normally be had for $30 as well
Corona, can honestly say I have NEVER had one.  Don't want to either.

EDIT- Coopers Sparking Ale is my current fav, low $40's a slab.  A fantastic beer and 1.7 standards as well, so go to smash a few before heading out :)

mmm beer.

all is good.

they don't sell the Aldi beer at my local shop, maybe I should heckle them. I'm sick of paying $3.30 for a schooner at the pub!

and a point on Coronas.
they are dirty mexican beers, that if you go to mexico you can buy one for $1, then go to the recycling plant and get 50 cents back.
why the heck would you pay $5 for a beer that is so shite you have to put lime in it?Gimme my guinness dammit [/rant]

i have different 'beer moods'

some days I like Tooheys Old, but other days it tastes like copper 'cause the publicans are dirty.

some days I'm willing to fork out the extra dollar to get some Peroni Nastro Azzuro.. I find it goes really well with woodfired pizza.

I'll also buy a carlton draught simply on how damn good their TV ads are, and I figure... more beer = more beer ads :P

Beez Neez is fair allright too, but its not actually sold in my town :(

hehe you found out my dirty secretion :)

little creatures started out as a micro-brewery in fremantle, right on the waters' edge, now theyve had to scale up somewhat to keep up with the new-found demand.
