I have to travel overseas from a non Sydney airport and baulked at the cost of flight+bags.
So naturally I checked the buses and was also shocked at the cost.
Then I checked the train and found out it came out much cheaper than the rest of them.
Is the XPT really that bad in terms of customer experience? Why would it be significantly cheaper than a greyhound or flix bus with a similar departure time.
So I brewed a batch kilju with bakers yeast (I'm cheap) and despite the abv (10%) being pretty low compared to what I usually drink (spirits and occasionally wine) it felt like it affected me much harder than if I drank a similar volume of higher abv drinks.
Does Kilju have a higher amount of fusel alcohols than say your standard store bought wine? Or maybe the usage of bread yeast increases fusel alcohol production? Perhaps it's temperature, but the temp range I was working with was 16-23 (so not that high).
The Kilju also didn't taste like the sewerage some people seem to claim. A 2 week brew with a 12 hour cold crash tasted sort of like a blandish wine. Definitely drinkable.
