“Sod the wine, I want to suck on the writing. This man White is an instinctive writer, bloody rare to find one who actually pulls it off, as in still gets a meaning across with concision. Sharp arbitrage of speed and risk, closest thing I can think of to Cicero’s ‘motus continuum animi.’

Probably takes a drink or two to connect like that: he literally paints his senses on the page.”

GOODIESON'S SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS NOW

McLAREN VALE'S ONLY BREWERY, GOODIESON'S, HAS MADE A GREAT ALE FOR CHRISTMAS. USING ORGANIC HERBS AND PEELS FROM THE LOCAL MARKET AT WILLUNGA, THEY'VE FLAVOURED AND COMPOSED A CLASSIC TRADITIONAL YULETIDE BEER WHICH IS A SNIP AT $25 PER SIX PACK. IT'S THE PERFECT PLUM PUDDING SUDS FOR ZERO TEMPERATURES AND SNOW, AND SEEMS TO MAKE MORE PERFECT SENSE EVEN IF SIX MONTHS OUT OF KILTER WITH MIDWINTER.
