Is it VB or VX? Australia’s most iconic beer, Victoria Bitter, has released a new twist on the beloved classic. Victoria Bitter Xtra comes in 250ml bottles with 6% alcohol compared to 4.9% in classic VB. We put the Man of Many team to the test to see how well they know their VB. #vb #victoriabitter #victoriabitter🍻 #beer #vx #vbxtra #australia #australianbeer #tastetest #manofmany #manofmanytastes https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cpv6yA4PATq/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

Getting the drinks ready for the next few days has been a hell of a lot of fun. Getting to share a couple of Magnums as well is such a great feeling. Beer is always best shared. Made a real conscious decision to go lighter this year with the exception of what I think might be in the Carwyn Cellars box. 40 degree weather is not Imperial stout weather. #beer #craftbeer #australianbeer #victoria #christmas #australia

Now the next step in the #Beggsbeeradventure is to hit up this from Last Word Brewing. The cherry, raspberry and acid are producing a real Cherry Cola vibe which is something I am here for. There might be some bottles of it still hidden around Melbourne if you’re lucky. This continued raid on my cellar continues to end up with some real beautiful beer. Australian beer is far more complex than stereotypes would indicate. #beer #craftbeer #BeerAdventures #australianbeer #LastWordBrewing

Tonight’s #Beggsbeeradventure involves one of my favourite breweries in Boatrocker. If you live in Melbourne and haven’t been to their Barrel Room I’d definitely recommend it. This bottle of Time Lord is right in its sweet spot right now. Just a beautiful level of acid and funk. Definitely going to enjoy documenting my beer adventures here and hope others might enjoy them too. #Beer #CraftBeer #AustralianBeer #BeerAdventures #BoatrockerBrewery

Sometimes part of the fun having bought a hell of a lot of beer (and continuing to try to support local bottle shops and breweries) is the surprises you find in various locations and fridges. I truly forgot I had this. It’s a beautiful, balanced yet funky mess. Sometimes keeping beer like this does truly work. Brewed in 2017 and is absolutely world class. https://www.boatrocker.com.au/products/6-bretts #australianbeer #beer #sharingbeer #mybeeradventures
