Dan Murphy's is selling single kegs of Bitburger beer for $24.90 but also selling a case of two kegs for $27.90. Doesn't take too much calculation to realise that for an extra $3 you end up with Bitburger at $2.79 a litre.
I actually quite like this beer but understand that it may not be to everyone's taste. For those that have previously bought this beer and liked it or willing to try it out, you're on a winner!
Only problem I see is that stock is dropping quickly, if you want some check the online stock for your local Dan Murphy's and click and collect to secure it.

    I tried a case of this the other day and 3/4 of it is still sitting under my bed.
    I couldnt stomach it.

        Back in the 70's in the Airforce, the guy in the room next door used to keep a six pack under his bed. About 7am I'd hear a psheeeeht as the first can was cracked … at room temp, every morning without fail.

          It's pretty sad being in the Airforce drove him to alcohol. Although, who is to say he didn't have a problem before then.

    Mixed reviews about this beer.

    Sorry, new to this beer in keg. Only thing I am thinking, how will you drink cold beer, I mean can you fit it in Fridge and what if you can't finish whole keg, how long does it stay fine in Keg

    • ilikeradiohead on 05/01/2015 - 14:50
      +2

      I think it's fine for a while. It's essentially a rudimental keg, so that air shouldn't be getting in when you pour beer. I'm not an expert on it though. Additionally, if you see TA's comment above the expiry is in Feb 2015.

      And yeah, you have to chuck them in the fridge for ~5 hours before drinking.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/01/2015 - 15:24

      5L kegs aren't that big. You should be able to make room in the fridge for it.

      Think about it. A 3L bottle of milk fits happily in most fridge doors :)

  • pointless martyr on 05/01/2015 - 14:51

    $5.58 per litre really isnt that cheap. Imo better off with the boags $10 off woolies deli deal - last day to buy is today, last day to use is next tues, $4.28 per litre. Better beer, better price, former subject to opinion of course

    • WatchNerd on 05/01/2015 - 14:53
      +1

      No that wouldn't be cheap. Lucky this is $2.79 per litre.

    • mikzter on 05/01/2015 - 14:55
      +1

      If you buy a case you get 10L for $27.90, that's what the post is all about.

    • [Deactivated] on 05/01/2015 - 15:09
      +6

      The maths is simple.

      2x5lt = 10lt
      24x375ml = 9lt
      24x355ml = 8.52lt
      24x330ml = 7.92lt

      So unless you can get a slab less then below, it's cheaper
      375ml slab @ $25.11
      355ml slab @ $23.77
      330ml slab @ $22.10

    It doesn't taste like Australian beer if that's what you are asking but if you have had German beers in the past and liked them you should like this. If you have fruit and veggies in the fridge, turf them out and put the keg in, it's far more important and nutritious.
    I'm not sure how long it will last in the fridge as it's never been very long in mine once opened. I would say you would still get maybe three days out of it. It will taste the same but will probably go flat like any beer would. Open it when you have a party !

    • [Deactivated] on 05/01/2015 - 15:10

      3 days? was that during FebFast or something?

    As a craft beer lover, I was surprised to find this actually tasted pretty good for a high selling (in Germany) lager. Definitely good value if you're in need of a keg or two at some stage!

    Tap was fiddly to get working, btw.

  • Danger on 05/01/2015 - 15:59

    Can you use Tap King for this Keg.

    • alextmb on 05/01/2015 - 16:04

      No - different system on the Tap King. This is a self contained keg with its own tap.

        "that's what she said…"

        Ah there it is again, my pet hate; completely nonsensical/random use of the "that's what she said" line/gag. I'd love to know what you actually think the line refers to rastaman! Also, there's a hilarious episode of 'The Office' (US version) that you need to watch. In that episode, the main guy repeatedly demonstrates that he doesn't actually understand the joke, by dropping the line in situations where it makes no sense to do so, in a misguided attempt to appear 'cool'.

        Which obviously has the opposite effect.

        • [Deactivated] on 06/01/2015 - 01:01

          completely nonsensical/random use of the "that's what she said" line/gag

          That's often the point, dude.

          It's meant to be ironic use of the line. The irony itself is then the joke.

          "That's often the point, dude."

          Nah, it ain't Waters… it's meant to be used when it's humorous to imagine "her" saying it with reference to some sexual act/situation/attribute etc.

          If it is used in these situations, and/or any other time as well, i.e. at random, then it loses all meaning/humour-value.

          Obviously jokes should not be taken literally, but there needs to be some potential thought/humour involved, otherwise it's not a joke; it's just a "script" (like "OMG", or "what evs" etc.).

          That's my point, dude.

          EDIT: I've decided to run a special screening of "The Office" episode alluded to above, at my house, for all OzBargainers; because I realise that many find long-winded overly intelectualised explanations irksome. Said peeps may be more receptive to my point when it is illustrated via a humorous screen-production. Copious amounts of Bitburger will be served.
