    Mr Banks Brewing Co, review by Emily Speakman

    Do you like parties? Is the best bit cake? Well then, this is the beer for you.

    Local craft beer bar/store Hopheads (with venues in Point Cook, Altona and now Yarraville) collaborated with Mr Banks to create Pineapple Party Cake; A DDH Oat Cream DIPA (For those playing at home the acronyms are Double Dry Hopped and Double India Pale Ale).

    The hops in this beer (Talus and Citra) give off some grapefruit and citrus aromas.

    The flavour is enhanced by added pineapple juice…and that is what it tastes like. An upside-down pineapple cake with a big old scoop of ice cream.

    Be warned, at 8%, it’s probably one for the weekend.

    Our content is a labour of love, crafted by dedicated volunteers who are passionate about the west. We encourage submissions from our community, particularly stories about your own experiences, family history, local issues, your suburb, community events, local history, human interest stories, food, the arts, and environmental matters. Below are articles created by community contributors. You can find their names in the bylines.

    Did you know?

    It's hard to find local stories because major news suppliers have economised by cutting local journalism. In addition, social media algorithms mean we have to work doubly hard to be seen.

    If you loved reading this article please consider donating to the Westsider. Support from you gives local writers an outlet and ensures an independent voice can be found in the west.

    If you're a business or community group, consider advertising in print or online, or becoming a community partner.
