Aussie Beer Tasting🍺! November 15th

Posted on November 19, 2019 by Lexis | Byron Bay

Friday we had our favourite activity… Beer tasting!

It was a perfect afternoon for a nice cold beer. We had 4 great brews for students to try.

Byron Bay Premium Lager

VB (Victorian Bitter)

Furphy’s Refreshing Ale

Stone & Wood Green Coast Lager

BBBco

Everyone was given a form with a list of beers we were tasting. After tasting the beer they were asked to guess the flavours, which state the beer is from, alcohol percentage, price, and rating out of 10.

Guessing the flavours was the hardest task.

Alba was very happy with the afternoon’s activity.

CHEERS!

Beer Tasting! Friday 30th August

Posted on September 2, 2019 by Lexis | Byron Bay

What better way to end a busy week than with a Beer Tasting session..?

That is exactly what we treated the students to on Friday afternoon. We made the most of the sun and sat out the front of school and sampled a range of Australian beers.

The beers we sampled were a range of lagers, ales, stouts, ipa’s and xpa’s. Most of the beers were local brewed in Byron, Ballina and the Gold Coast.

Everyone agreed upon their favourite beer being Stone & Wood’s Green Coast Lager, brewed here in Byron Bay!

Stone & Wood do tours everyday of their new brewery located in the Arts and Industrial Estate. Check out their website https://www.stoneandwood.com.au/byron-brewery/ or come and see me for more information 🙂

Beer Tasting! 12th April

Posted on April 15, 2019 by Lexis | Byron Bay

Today we had the perfect Friday afternoon activity… BEER TASTING!

We had 6 different beers to taste…

Amanda Mandarin IPA
Fixation IPA
Tooheys Old Dark Ale
Stone & Wood Green Coast Lager
Koscuiszko Pale Ale
Stone & Wood Paccific Ale

The students had to take note of what flavours they could taste and guess where each beer was brewed. We also tried to guess what the alcohol percentage was and the price per bottle.

All of the beer we sampled was from Australia! Everyone guessed mostly correct, except the Koscuiszko Pale Ale, as the label has a snowy mountain and we agreed that the name does not sound very Australian!

Byron Bay’s Stone & Wood beer was a crowd favourite – especially the Pacific Ale!
