🍻📅 Beer47 Weekly #9: Craft beer success, smoky beer, vocabulary, & more

And corporations are taking over craft brewers to dip into that market as it bubbles up
XXXX The Australian word for beer
It's XXXX Bitter is made by Castlemaine Perkins, who is owned by Lion, who is owned by Kirin. XXXX Bitter is about as corporate as it gets. It also seems like Australia is inundated by Lion tied houses keeping the new local breweries out of most bars. It's rather unfortunately.
