A couple of random beers available on special this month.
Kosciuszko Pale Ale
I had the Kosciuszko while I was in Corryong recently, it's a good drop. I haven't heard of Wakachangi before.
Requires a free My Dan Murphy's membership.
Don't forget to use discounted Woolworths Wish Cards.
I think it's fine, just a bit basic for what is usually a premium priced pale ale. If it's not on a special like this, it's pushing up to Stone & Wood territory, which I don't think is worthwhile. Around the same price or cheaper is Mornington Pale, which I think is much more flavoursome and interesting.
Must agree. I got my mornington peninsula delivery last week and have thoroughly enjoyed both their pale ale and brown ale. At their normal pricing it's a bit expensive for me but one of the better ales I've found in that price range.
Price has come down a little bit in some places since they joined Tribe - I get it at cost from my folks' bottleshop, but cost price is under $55 so they sell a slab for around $60. Six pack is $20.
Big fan! Thanks OP
Kosciusko is a solid pale ale, especially in the warmer months
This would be good on a road trip from Darwin down to Alice springs
That's an oddly specific reference.
Probably a really nice road trip though
In case anyone's expecting anything of the Wakachangi, it's kind of a joke beer back home in NZ. Nothing special just your standard lager with a funny label.
I'm not trying to be a salty beer snob just making sure people are actually aware of what they're buying
FYI Link below is NZ satire:

I didn't even know it was real until I saw it here - seen it advertised on the Alternative Commentary Collective and just assumed it was made up.
Haha cheers, it's worth buying for the box alone!
I've visited and enjoyed their beer fresh at the Banjo Patterson Inn, but Kosciuszko is another fake craft beer, this one owned by Kirin/Lion and brewed (other than the label image would suggest) in Camperdown or Geelong.
They had Kosciusko in the Qantas Club for a while. Drank plenty of it. Very enjoyable for the price.
I wonder how many Australian's and American's will actually be able to say Kosciuszko the correct way it's meant to be pronounced, after the famous Polish explorer, and not Kaw-zee-osko.
How do you pronounce it?
I was pleasantly surprise with Wakachangi. It's pretty nice.
"quite nice beer" -Wakachangi
I got a 6'er of Wakachangi a few months ago for $11. Overpaid. Still have one in the fridge I can't bring myself to drink.
It’s $24.99 for me after login with membership, deal expired?
Yep. You should report it.
I really liked it but it's got alot of bad reviews. Each to their own I guess, I thought it was a good crisp tasting beer.
