Do’h! It only took this long. Beer, long the source of cheap kicks in the Western World (for want of a better place), is officially having its classification changed in Russia from, err, ‘foodstuff’ to ‘alcohol’. Well, ok.

Shopping for prescription drugs and cheap beer just got a little easier!

This is the moment Slater cursed out a nasty passenger over a plane intercom, grabbed some beer and fled down an emergency slide at Kennedy Airport. In Chinese.

Wild imagination and fearless innovation has been fueling the masters over at BrewDog to engage in what they like to call ‘extreme brewing’ for some time now. They’ve pumped out such off-the-wall creations as ultra bitter, ‘hopped to hell’ India Pale Ales, and a 32% imperial stout known as the Tactical Nuclear Penguin.

Every Aussie home should have one of these Barlite Beer Bottle Chandeliers. It’s a shrine to lazy summer indulgence. Now, if only they could figure out how to make a barbeque light fitting?

Back in April, we told the tale behind the creation of NELSON beer — a collaborative, user-feedback Australian brew. Now, in preparation for Melbourne’s Spring Fashion Week in early September, this same Beta beer has slipped into its most recent attire, designed by Melbourne-based fashion house, Trimäpee.
