Thought the idea is to drink before the New Year?
And after.
And during.
And forever
@silverx: And beyond
@customundo: And to infinity

Have a Drink on Me :D
Bon Scott was the best. Brian Johnson not so much
not to be confused with Carlsberg, this is called Karlsbräu anywhere outside of Germany.
I bought one last year for Christmas/nye, and dropped it. Spurted everywhere.
This year, i bought a bitburger, and it went flat 2 beers later. That was after 40mins. 1st beer was all froth.regarding the froth, we buy a small amount of clear plastic tube that fits over the tap. then this fills from the bottom of the glass. no more froffy beers
It'd be unAustralian not to buy this.
Or South Australian, seeing as we can't
Angus Young doesn't drink at all. Bon Scott choked to death on his own vomit. Can't think of a worse product for them to sell really
I saw some ACDC endorsed Sav Blanc not too long ago which seemed even more inappropriate.

They don’t have use it make money off it.
is the keg got a lid that can be refilled?
No once emptied that’s it carnt refill
you can refill them with liquid but it's a massive hassle
so do you need to refill from the tap hole or need to make a hole on top?
If its similar to this design then yes. https://youtu.be/_0i5FmfF-l4
Interested in this myself to fill them up with home brew, but never tried it.what type of alcohol do you homebrew and how do you do it?
how much cheaper is your homebrew?
BTW how is the taste compared?
Type? A bit of everything from ginger beer to mead to cider to wine. I have not tried much "normal beer" yet as its more complicated. Or at least it can be if not using a pre made can.
How to? search on youtube for the type you want to make, there are heaps of info out there.
Price? depends a lot on the type you are doing. My ginger beer only cost me some sugar and yeast, as i grew the ginger.
Taste? That's the beauty of home brew, make it to your own taste! I put chilli in my ginger beer, makes it firey hot and gingery! not many would like it that hot, but i love it!
I personally spend about $35-40 in consumables on a brew and that makes 23L of good craft quality ale. It can be as cheap or as expensive as you want it, depends on your goals. A basic decent brew to replace swill eg. basic Coopers tin homebrew might cost only $20 or so. Same with the taste, it's up to you. Overall it's not hard to make something good. Controlling the temperature is a good deal of the difference between okay and good brews (different yeasts produce different flavours at different temperatures) so brewing in winter or in a spare temperature controlled fridge helps there.
If this is the same keg from their Oktoberfest then it's horrible. Too effervescent. Don't super recommend but the novelty of having a keg is pretty fun.
if it's just foam it's too warm or you arent pouring it properly. fully open or fully closed, not half way
Silly question but once opened does all of it need to be finished in one day as in for a group of people or can one person drink it over a few days (I'm assuming there will be a loss of fizz and also taste as in Pepsi/ coca cola)
I'm not a beer drinker, was thinking of gifting it to my dad, who drinks a glass of beer at lunchtime
No worries mate, once it's opened you will most likely pour it down the drain.
If you love your dad, don't buy him this swill.
Hope better than the AC/DC Back in Black Shiraz, which is a flop.
Don't recommend this piss, especially in a 5L keg… RateBeer 5/9 - Untappd 2.97
It's $27 for 5L…
5L of still water is 4$.
ALDI sells full strength Rivets for 28 dollars per case of 24 cans 365 days of the year
And rivet is 2.4 on Untappd…
Don't get me wrong, I get around them both, just saying that for the price, don't expect your local brewer's IIPA for flavour…
Australia's best selling beer is no better

That's hardly surprising; I've tasted Great Northern.
Yeah tastes like cats piss.
carlton dry > great northern
Great Northern is Australias best selling beer?
I'm not downvoting BUT am curious why so many upvotes?
$27 for 5L of beer isn't overly special - few reviews on the beer but those that are about say it's below average. Seems the keg or AC/DC endorsement is giving it a bit of a novelty rise.
Dam Queensland
Isn't the beer spelled with a C as in Carlsberg? Or is this an "inspired by" type like Hugo Moss or Emporium Armani?
"Or ray bins
Damn you Aldi. From Adelaide.
I asked a store manager in SA, turns out they want liquor but it's the SA government that's not allowing the sales.
Well yeah, alcohol is banned from all supermarkets in SA
Can you put this in the fridge?
I would like to chill it first before having it…
Yes.
For sydneysider: no stock in Rydalmere; at least 6 left in Eastwood store - bought one from there. Thanks op.
A head bangingly good deal?
