Peter, thanks, it's off! And it came off pretty much exactly as you describe. Pics soon.

BDC, I haven't seen Fosters for years; think it's purely marketed overseas. Probably no better or worse than some of that soapy water that is heavily pushed in the States. Our beer industry is fairly similar to yours, with a vast and excellent selection of small-scale hand-crafted beers readily available. I noticed on my last trip there that IPAs were riding a wave of popularity, at least in the states I visited (Montana and Alaska). Same here, along with APAs, PPAs and just plain PAs. Been some great heavy beers matured in retired whiskey barrels lately too. After yesterday's sump job I just enjoyed a couple from my local brewery, James Boag, one of the best commercial-scale breweries in Australia because we are lucky to have excellent quality fresh water here in Tassie. Cheers, J.
