Title: Richmond Lager
Post by: one-eyed on September 03, 2008, 02:17:05 PM
I heard in the background something on the midday news about Fosters reintroducing Richmond Lager. I wonder if we will have any involvement?

Yup, Fosters are definitely brewing another batch of it.

Not sure about anymore than that.

Ch 10 showed it briefly on their news. It's a different label to the above one but still has a tiger head on it. The tiger head looked a bit like our old early 90s logo.

I work for a fosters warehouse (hopefully not much longer :thumbsup) and we definantly have it! We got about 12 B-Doubles full sent to our warehouse but we still havn't sent any out to the dan murphy's and liqurland's we supply so they must be waiting for a specific time to re-release it.

To be honest, I don’t know if this is a genuine beer, or a re-badged beer aimed at Football supporters. But, it is nothing new here, it follows the tried and true CUB style of beer. Aroma is sweet almost a hint of tropical fruit, skunky and a hint of metal. Pour is light amber with a thin chemical head. Flavour is slight corn syrup and sweetness upfront followed by the snap harshness of Pride of Ringwood hops. I really can’t understand this, the flavour is the same as other CUB beers, it’s labelling is blokey like other CUB beers and is priced in the same category. My only guess is someone in Fosters likes Tigers, or The Tigers and has rebadged the beer accordingly.

I moved from VB to Carlton Draught once they changed the VB recipe and lowered the alcohol content. Just not the same beer. Don't mind a Melbourne Bitter either. :thumbsup

I moved to cider at the same time they butchered VB. Dirty Granny or Old Mout. Just over the whole generic beer scene.  :sleep

If you want to try a nice beer which is a bit different, try Hitachino Espresso Stout - magic  :thumbsup

Well let's hope CUB do something with it then, rather than registering the name so fine establishments such as our CLUB can't use the name or product...

This was on tap at the London yesterday. It was so popular that they bloody ran out of it just as I was about to order a jug. Was a sign of things to come I guess.

Richmond lager.

Appearance was cloudy and golden with a coppery-orange hue; moderate, bone-colored head retention.

Aroma is very hop-forward but in a gentle well crafted manner. There is no obnoxious bright green hop attack, rather, a soft blanket of perfectly picked hop bouquet. There are wonderful notes of fully bloomed flowers and RIPE stone fruit with the citrus quality of the hops rounding out the nose.

Taste is pleasantly sweet caramel on the attack followed by, as they say, "wave after wave of hoppy goodness on your palate." The balance of bittering hops, aromatic hops and malt notes is the best I have ever enjoyed.

As soon as you swallow it's then you realise how poo this beer really is, as its sits heavy on your stomach, enough to make you sick for days.
If you like the look of this beer you'd want to drink it fast as after 2 sips it starts it lose its head and gets flat pretty quick after that.

Note: don't be fooled by this beers great looks and intoxicating aromas.
It will let you down every time your game enough to taste it.

That's what they were serving at the London on elim final day. They definitely have it on tap in and around the Richmond area. I don't think they sell it in bottles though in shops

Great with noodles.
