Veggie patch - spring is here!

XXXX Summer Bright Lager

I know I'm challenging a lot of loyalties here, but let me say this, Summer Bright is the Aussie answer (finally) to Corona. There might be a bit of a difference but I guess we can live with it. Now, I'm more of a wine kinda guy but every now and then I end up in situations where you shouldn't ask for wine if you dont want to labelled a w**ker. Just grab a beer. In those situations, I wouldn't mind a Summer Bright. It's light, fresh and crisp. Add that magical wedge of lemon and voilà! Now the serious part - it's so much cheaper than Corona.

Another beauty by Ben Glaetzer

Bishop, by Ben Glaetzer. 2009 Shiraz. It's so much more than what it seems like when you first open it. It evolves into something much larger, much more lovable overnight. Beautiful shiraz. Available for around $30 AU, this is a great wine to stock up on.
Great on its own. Medium-bodied, gentle spices and mesmerising aroma. Berries are evident and the palate is full. All of that aside, it has that something special about it. Something that makes it a love t first sip.
It's no secret that Ben Glaetzer has been changing the way wine is produced and made in the Barossa. For a few years, he's been busy belting out wines that are more elegant than in your face. Lot gentler than what most people expect from the Barossa. Wines that are thoroughly enjoyable. This is a fine example of all that class and elegance that Ben has added to Australian wine.
