I don't mind honey in beer, but the light wheat stuff stinks. I've home brewed and added honey with some pretty good results.

Never went inside the Rocket Room. The doors were locked.  Ended up sitting on the patio of this Brass Monkey place smoking and heckling the other folks there.

Would have to say that I'm impressed by the beer in WA.  There isn't really anything good that gets exported to the US from Australia.  All I kept hearing about was VB and Coopers.  

After looking at a map and the inside of my wallet, I doubt that I'll make it to the Little Creatures Brewery.  

I'm sure its expensive as well, but I did hear of a Belgian beer bar around town as well.  Anybody know bout this place?

He could buy our worst beer available and it'd be better than American dish water.

Ouch.
Come on now, there is plenty of great American beer and there is a shit ton of nasty ones as well.

So far the good ones here that I've enjoyed are

Little Creatures Pale
Fat Yak Pale
Coopers Pale Ale
James Squire Pale
James Squire Amber

The bad

Swan
Hahn
Beez Neez

The ok

Coopers Sparkling
VB
Tooheys

and yes, I had to spend a weeks wages to have these and the Rocket Room wasn't even open when I got there.

Has anyone been to the Little Creatures Brewery?  I might have to venture there next.

Thanks!

Unfortunately I won't be able to make it to the shows.  Thanks for the recommendations here in Perth!  I think I'll be trying to make my way down to the Rocket Room this evening.

Any local brews that you guys would recommend as well?

Cheers, this is my first post and wanted to introduce myself here. I'm from Northern California and I'm traveling across AU on a rock tour.

I found this site through themetaltravelguide.com.  I'm looking for some good metal/ punk/ rock bars or good places to drink. Any suggestions?  I'm in Perth for the next few days. What are some good places around?

Any suggestions are appreciated.
