I know it has only been 2 days... It should be a week. But this week I've had maybe a bit to much beers. But they where worth reviewing. So here we go!
Beers of this week # 2. Whoooops?!
As you can read in my travel blog for this week. I've had some different beers and I wanted to start out with my best one. A hopped down stout called Malpractice
Malpractice - Doctor's Orders Brewing.
| Style | Stout - American / Hoppy India stout. Blending IPA. |
| Alcohol | 5% |
| Brewery | Doctor's Orders |
| Location | NONE!! but Sydney on paper.. |
| Description | India Saisons and India Stouts. Brewers putting twists on heritage styles and looking to give them a new home. Enter another such exhibit. A dry stout packed with an abundance of hops including hops in the latest more potent form, hop hash. We hope you can taste and enjoy the deviation from tradition. |
| Description on Brewery | Doctor's orders brewing is a affectionately referred to as a "cuckoo brewer" . The analogy with a cuckoo is that we don't have our own brewery (cuckoos take over other birds' nests to lay their eggs). We take over our mates' breweries to personally brew our beer. We are inspired to brew beers that are based on emerging, Historical and/or rare styles that usually come with a twist. Released seasonally. |

| Smell & Aroma | Sweet! for a porter. IPA smelling |
| Bottle design | I don't like the can design. I only got this beer because the barman recommanded it. I do love it. So it is a shame it does not reach me as customer with the design |
| Appearance | The beer looks like a 100% stout. It has all the foam of a good stout aswell. You would not expect how it tastes on the look of it. |
| Taste | Amazing taste. Its sweet?! Instead of bitter. But still has this stout taste.. It is hard to explain. But the best way to describe this beer is A stout that you can drink on the beach. A stout-light. But without being boring. |
| ▇ ▅ █ | ▇ ▅ █ |
| Notes | Amazing overall beer. Needs a new design. Will drink again. |
| Online Rating | This beer gets a average of 3,75/5 stars on Untappd |
| Rating | 3.75/5 I am very strict on my ratings so 3 is considered good. 4 is excellent and 5 is perfect. |
Żywiec Porter by Grupa Żywiec.
| Style | Porter - Baltic. |
| Alcohol | 9.5% |
| Brewery | Grupa Żywiec |
| Location | Bracki Bowar. |
| Description Internet | Żywiec Porter, pronounced "je-vi-ets", is a dark, strong beer brewed according to the traditional recipe from 1881, with the Munich malt and special malts for caramel and color plus the highest quality aromatic hops. Everything together creates a unique combination of taste. Production of this Porter was moved to Bracki Bowar in 2004. |

| Smell & Aroma | I had the most intense hayfever.. sorry.. |
| Bottle design | The design really spoke to me. I only later figured out this was a polish beer. For a polish beer it looks very premium. |
| Appearance | Dark stout. |
| Taste | Alot of carbonation. But in a good way. It feels a bit like bubbels. |
| ▇ ▅ █ | ▇ ▅ █ |
| Notes | By far my favorite beer from poland. |
| Online Rating | This beer gets a average of 3,5/5 stars on Untappd |
| Rating | And that is pretty accurate. I give this 3.5/5 I am very strict on my ratings so 3 is considered good. 4 is excellent and 5 is perfect. |
Phat Mongrel Fox Hat Brewing
| Style | Stout - Oatmeal. |
| Alcohol | 6.5% |

| Location | Willunga, SA Australia |
| Description can | A big Phat rounded American style stout, finished with a nitro charge. to the eye A deep black abyss hissed up coffee coloured nitro bubbles, topped with a rich, creamy head. up your nose The initial pungent and complex hop aroma gets piny and resinous before fading to the rich, Roasted chocolatey malt body. in your mouth The assertive hop flavours and 70 IBUs of bitterness on the front mellow to a sweet, phat, chocolate and toasted malt combination, while the 6.5% ABV warms you all the way down. |
| ▇ ▅ █ | ▇ ▅ █ |
| Smell & Aroma | I had 2 beers already and I was in a club with live music. But I trust the very describing description.. |
| Bottle design | I got this randomly without choosing this. I think it looks okay. Could be more grabbing. |
| Appearance | It was in a can. But the description above shows it pretty well. |
| Taste | Suprise. I dont think I've ever had a nitro shot beer.. The best thing about this beer is its 70 IBU and really really good after taste. It warms and melts the back of your mouth. |
| ▇ ▅ █ | ▇ ▅ █ |
| Notes | I already had 2 beers |
| Online Rating | This beer gets a average of 3,9/5 stars on Untappd |
| Rating | I give this 3.75/5 I am very strict on my ratings so 3 is considered good. 4 is excellent and 5 is perfect. |
As I think this post is already long enough for this week. Im not going to go into detail on the other 3 beers. But here they are!
- Long reef pale ale - 2,75/5
- Bob blackmans - 2.5/5
- Arthur blackmans - 3.25/5
I also will be trying to participate in the #BeerSaturday challenge. from @detlev.
Doctor's orders, eh? Sounds tasty!
They taste better as they sound or look!
Doctors orders are generally very good beers, some of the Doc's early works were amount the best beers in Australia.
Did not know that.. I'll keep an eye open on others. Do you know any good other Australian beers?
