1314346 2012-11-26 19:43:00 The one beer I liked was Lion super it was around in the late 70s. Only needed a few jugs to put you on your ear.

Can't understand why it was taken off the market and morphed into Steingrenades

You wouldn't know because you were not in NZ at the time. It was popular but removed because of its strength, I remember well starting drinking at lunchtime on Saturday and be totally flako by 5 pm. Normally with DB draught I could last to about 3 in the morning before falling over. Sometimes would get the drinking yourself sober effect
Taste isn't everything with beer its no good if its weak as cats piss. Cant drink for effect if the body is getting rid of the alcohol faster than you are tipping it down your neck. They go about youth of today binge drinking meh the pansies today wouldn't have even made the grade in my day.

The beer might be good but there are bad reviews for Tap Haus. (restaurants.nzherald.co.nz)

I used to drink steingrenade bottles. We had a saying then with aircraft S&S and RPs, Safety and Servicing Notes and Replenishment Procedures. Scupper Stenies Rape and Pillage. Steingrenades were alleged to make you do stupid things on the piss and I swear its true when you see a non or light drinker go ballistic after scuppering a few steingrenades.
