The Critics’ Choice: Australia’s Best Beers

March 1, 2012 by Media Release

It’s not a Australian Brews News publication but regular contributor and co-host of Radio Brews News, Pete Mitcham, is the editor-in-chief and Matt Kirkegaard is a contributor, so you would expect us to say nice things about the upcoming Critics’ Choice: Australia’s Best Beers. Still, is a very fine piece of beerphernalia. With the voting being done by a panel of beer writers, judges, brewers and retailers, the Critics’ Choice is the perfect companion list to the people’s choice beers represented by the Local Taphouses Hottest 100. Together they are the ultimate list of what’s hot in the world of Australian beer!

Watch out for the beer countdowns at a good beer bar bear you, with the #1 being announced on March 30.

The Critics’ Choice: Australia’s Best Beers

Late in 2010 three blokes got together over a beer and decided to do the impossible.

They set out to gather together a selection of Australia’s best and brightest beer personalities  –  brewers and   beer  writers,  bottle  shop  and  venue  operators  –  and  asked  them  to  do  what  no  one  had  even attempted to do before; nominate their favourite beers and put them in order from 1 to 100 so that they may create a book from the list. Fortunately, two of those blokes were publishers. That book was The Critics Choice: Australia’s Best Beers.

Incorporating  tasting  notes  from  the  brewers  themselves  and  additional  comments  on  each  beer  by some of the country’s leading beer writers, The Critics Choice took beer from the pub and the BBQ and brought it to the dinner table and the Board Room, demystifying confusing terminologies and explaining styles, types and flavours.

For the first time the average drinker had a book that introduced a range of Australian beers, chosen by those  best  placed  to  recommend  them  and  presented  in  a  way  that  welcomed  the  newcomer  to  the world of beer. In addition, restaurants, cafes and bars now had a handy guidebook for new staff and for those customers ready to take the next step in their beer education.

The Critics Choice will again showcase the best that Australian brewers have to offer an ever increasing and  appreciative  audience.  The  Critics  Choice  is  list  of  beers  brewed  in  Australia  and  available  during 2011,  ranked  by  the  country’s  foremost  appreciators  of  our  unofficial  national  beverage.  With  style guides  and  tasting  notes  and  food  pairing  suggestions,  The  Critics  Choice  will  make  the  perfect handbook for anyone who enjoys a beer.

RRP $14 .95
Available  March  30,  2012  from  bookstores,  newsagents  and  liquor stores
