Endeavour and Goat

Beer Radar for TWTW 5th October 2012

By John Krüger

Life’s not all Watervale Riesling you know. There’s plenty happening on the beer front. Here’s a few beers to keep your tastebuds happy.

The 2012 Endeavour beers are out. The Amber Ale is still as tasty as before and it’s nice to try the 2011 and 2012 side by side. Thanks to Andy Stewart at Endeavour for lining that up for us. Imagine a beer version of those little Pascall Chocolate Éclair lollies.

The Endeavour 2012 Pale has had more of a change than the Amber. There’s a bit more alcohol and a bigger hit of hops. Namely Galaxy, which bumps up the grassy resiny characters. Still finishes nice and dry. Quite a joy to drink.

Mountain Goat are about to turn 15 years old. Fifteen years of great beer have flown by. Check out the celebratory Triple Hightail ale while you can. See goatbeer.com.au for details about their beer tour. Get in quick with this one, only 250 cases bottled! We can’t wait.
