Hi all, went to the launch of the State Library’s WA Beer History collection in the foyer.

The beer, ‘Otherside - Gilded Ale’, was brewed based as close as reasonable to a 1913 recipe. Tasted a bit like what i remember Swan Gold to be.

There was a recipe for Cheap Beer. Great example of old cursive for people who saw the post a few days ago about reading/writing in cursive.

Very interesting panel of interviewees. The most interesting panelist was Phil Sexton, of Little Creatures and Matilda Bay fame. I’ve since found this podcast, he talks about some of the same stuff for those interested. https://open.spotify.com/episode/17fMfjOdcvCxMb7BZ5EWiu?si=2CQAVsKyS5SsZtpHOh95hA

All in all a great event.
