Back in the day, I worked at the Rose Bay RSL. I was rostered to work in the top bar for a function. It had a temprite beer system and being 3 levels above the cellar meant it was a huge draw to get to the right beer flow. The Cellarman told me to draw the heads off into buckets - Resch's & Tooheys into the same buckets! Then they would be taken down to the cellar and poured into the Tooth's Old kegs!Its a funny beer Reschs on tap - you get a good one its like liquid gold but a bad one will turn you off beer for life. I'm a member of Reschs Appreciation Society and fortunately both watering holes in my town serve a really good Reschs. With my membership i get a schooner for $5 at the bowlo and $5.50 at the tavern.
At the Courthouse Hotel in Newtown we used to clean the lines every Sunday night with Bracton. The Customers always complained on Monday that something was wrong with their beers. That's cos the lines were now clean.
To keep this post at a footy level The brewery driver who delivered the Reschs kegs was Rocket Rod Reddy and the man who won our inaugural arm wrestling contest was Pat Jarvis (from the local Newtown police station via St George) He was a beast. Oh, how I'd love to have those 2 in our squad today!
