I drank it down at Robe over Easter and it wasn’t too bad.

Normally don’t like the fruitier beers but this wasn’t too bad.

It was a bit like the Coopers session ale but better.


Not a fan at all of furphy. Just doesnt taste right to me.

amber_fluid wrote:Yeah it’s definitely brewed in Geelong but isnt that where little creatures is brewed?


Little creatures is originally from Fremantle, but have opened a second brewery in geelong (and thats when furphy was released)
All owned by lion nathan anyway


There you go, all sorted.
You normally like those fruity beers Benny?

I was hungover from drinking Reds Friday night so it went down alright whilst hung over and having a few bets Saturday.

There are good tasting lagers too, I just didnt think this was one of them. It still wasnt that bad tasting but for the price it wasnt good enough

Thought Furphy's Refreshing Ale was rubbish.

Really enjoying NEIPA style beers at the moment. Jedi Juice the pick of them.

At $100 a carton it would want to be good.
It is still beer after all.

How did you hear about the Jedi Juice?
You in some sort of beer club?

Circle of friends.

My mate started a Facebook group called "I am drinking beer", and we just post photos of whatever beer we're drinking to see what's going around.

Tried the James Squire Tropical Pale when out for Dinner tonight.
Not bad actually.

Worth a try.

I'm still devastated they replaced the Swindler Summer Ale with the Tropical Pale but it's still pretty good.

Any 'session', 'tropical' or 'summer' ales are rubbish.
