Tonight I’m watching footy at my local while sharing beers from my cellar. This is the perfect start to the holidays.

Have got to say if you can find these at your local go out and purchase them. The 4 pack has been some of the best beer I've enjoyed this year. #beer #ozbeersky kaijubeer.com.au/collections/...

Did a Crafty Pint Pint of Origin deep dive this afternoon and was suprised to see what venue was equal second in terms of being a venue for the longest. The longest is The Royston which has been a part of #PoO since 2013. The next 3 longest came along came in 2017. #beer #ozbeersky
