THIS JOURNEY IS NOW COMPLETE! This was a challenge I undertook from Feb 2011 to Feb 2012. Thanks to everyone that kept me going! Feel free to read through and comment, I am now also periodically adding reviews here as I sample other beers that I did not come across during the challenge.

Mclaren Vale Ale
Gettin my Popeye on in this one.
Wow. This was a bit of a surprise. Didn't really know what to expect due to the ambiguous packaging of this beverage. Theres no info or de
scription on it at all except for the words 'Be Honest. Be Silly. Be Kind.' Sounds like good advice to me.
It has a fairly heavy flavour to it, with some undertones that I can't quite put my finger on. I think it's the malt, it's more at the forefront of the flavour than the hops. There's also a subtle fruit flavour in there, but it's faint. I don't mind it really, it's different and has an original flavour which I respect and it will garnish some bonus points.
7.75/10
