From: katlaughing Date: 11 Aug 01 - 06:57 PM Sorry, Charley, not my webpage and it loads pretty fast here, but I think it is because we have cable access. Another little tidbit we just heard on the radio, part of the severance package at Guiness is 14 cans of Guiness every week for ten years after being let go! Ah the joys of redundancy!:-) kat |

Subject: RE: BS: Kiwi Bloke's - Jet-powered Beer Cooler!! From: Gareth Date: 11 Aug 01 - 07:10 PM Actually Ral beer should be served at a temprature of about 50 Degrees F ( No I cam't spell Farenhight ) A heath robinson contraption wot I set up when I was Honary Cellerman at the Whitstable Labour Club, to cool the barrels, and let them settle quickly involved old sacking, dripping water and an eletric fan. Tap and spile the barrels. set up a water drip above the racking, swath the parrels in sackinf, play an eletic fan on them. It works. Mark you since the club moved to better premises, and got an air conditioned celler thing aint been so bad. Gareth |

Subject: RE: BS: Kiwi Bloke's - Jet-powered Beer Cooler!! From: Billy the Bus Date: 12 Aug 01 - 03:33 AM Yeah Gareth, You are right onto the essentials - the temperature of the beer... Guinness, or any other Real Beer chilled to 2°C??? My mind boggles - Simon probably puts ICE in his whisky!!! It just ain't right! "Cellar Cool" (a tad below "ambient") is the correct temperature for Real Beer, as you so rightly point out, Gareth. This can be achieved by the sacking, a water-drip and an open window (with a draught) - none of your Heath Robinson electric fans needed...;) Which is exactly the way my "booze-fridge" worked 50 years back. Alas, the American "lager-cold" chilled beer hit NZ about 40 years back, and the country has gone downhill ever since. And furthermore the Auzzies beat us at Rugby yesterday. Life's not worth living... Sam (a REAL Kiwi Bloke) |

From: Mr Red Date: 12 Aug 01 - 05:43 AM Billy the Bus Never mind Rugby is only a game, (I ducked) ***BG**** drown yer sorrows in a bottle or two of Tui Ale or is it no longer real? If you are near Hastings I'm told the Rooster Brewery is a might choice. |

From: Billy the Bus Date: 12 Aug 01 - 05:58 AM Mr Red, I'm not near Hastings for a few yonks back, when the "Tavistock Hotel" was over the corner from the stockyards... Personal question... "Tui" used to be from the Rangaitiki... From your part of the world... Who's building "Leopard" these days.... Kat... who started this.... Check the piccie for Leopards Out of confused puff SDm |
