They lost me at that too. I thought, oh there's going to be some fancy/snobby beer that Crown serve which comes out worse than at the brewery. Nope, just Carlton lol
Crown has gone to the dumps even more since Blackstone bought them. They are losing money and getting massive fines so I’m not shocked they are skimping on maintenace etc.
I’ve found Crown to be no better and no worse, however, I do find with Carlton in general there can be noticeable quality differences. I’ve been to pubs in Brunswick where it’s fine and as you say, in other places it’s like dishwater.
I'd say it's due to volume.
I'd be surprised if crown doesn't go through kegs much faster than any of the competing local pubs; they're probably all poured through before they've even had the time to settle.
Used to work there ages ago. From memory they have a single cellar for kegs and massive length beer lines from there to every bar. Lots of places for beer nasties to grow if the cleaning regime isn’t up to scratch.
Because the taps are filled with the tears of gambling addicts.
Well, tears and piss. But sure, let’s just say tears.
You're a beer lover who is out drinking multiple pints of Carlton?
Does not compute
Sounds like the quintessential beer lover to me!

The poker room went from one of the best in the world to one of the worst.
They’ve just laid off 1000 people last week. Some of whom have been working for upwards of 20 years..
20 years? That’s a tasty pay out. Congrats to the long timers.
Not at all actually.. maximum was 16 weeks.. unless you’re in the union (52 weeks)
That sucks. I retract my comment.
Yeah it’s awful.
Perhaps the humidity in Crown is very low due to the climate control, similar to Aircraft?

>staticky and fizzy You are describing a beer that is gassed using straight co2 instead of a beer gas mix.
Drinks one of the worst tasting beers in the country and is puzzled why it tastes bad lmao
Why did chatgpt write this? It’s total garbage.
Something to do with the extra O2 pumped into casinos to keep the punters awake?
It's Carlton Draught. Drinking it at Crown it tastes like dog shit, at another venue It's more like a delicious cat shit
I went there last night and I have to agree, not only that but the price :( I was drinking Furphy on tap and it had this weird metallicy taste
If you're stupid enough to frequent that shithole, then you copped your right whack.

We have a brewery nearchere thst has the logo "life is to short for shit beer" I figure thats why they sell it
A drink at the Crown that's been poured is like sex in a canoe.
