Qantas Centenary Lager

Perhaps centenary refers to how long it takes to be served...

I think you're on to something. They're saving it for international travel to resume. It will be the beer they serve in J post departure. Fits the bill with the timing of that service :)
 
I checked BN J lounge tonight but no dice

Was the look any different when you asked for spirits? :rolleyes:
Just to note, spirits are still served in lounges, it was in the air that they have been removed.

Someone I know travelled JQ on the weekend though and they're still selling them onboard, so while that's a different topic to this, it's clearly not a COVID issue or even a galley space issue.

At this rate of blank stares they wont have it for my next flights in over a month from now!
 
And now the clock has struck midday, I can confirm it's exactly what you'd expect from a James Squire mid-strength lager. A little on the bitter side, quite crisp, not much else - nothing phenomenal but drinkable. Was served with a commemorative coaster.

On the drinks trolley in Economy Class. Didn't notice the cans in Business Class, sitting in 4C.
Already had two on the flight, handed a third, didn't want another toilet trip, brought it home unopened.

In BNE J Lounge and sampling ... agree with sudoer -slightly bitter (not enough to say "hoppy") but otherwise quite unremarkable. Disappointed I didn't get a coaster!!

Just tried this for the first time in the SYD Qantas Club. I actually quite like it! Sure, it's nothing all that special but it's refreshing, bitter and drinkable as others have said.

I wonder if it tastes better when it's poured fresh from the tap, as opposed to drinking it out of a can in the air?
 
I've not had the opportunity to try it yet. Wasn't in the SYD business lounge when I asked (told it's a QC offering), wasn't onboard and on the return journey the Darwin QC had never heard of it!

I tried it about two weeks ago onboard, didn’t have it at the CBR J lounge just prior so can’t comment on exTap quality. I imagine I will partake in one if it’s onboard in about an hour...

I agree, I quite like it as well. Quite tasty.
