I tried to reference The Australian article of the same name. Max Allen wrote it for the Food & Wine section of The Weekend Australian, 3-4 October 2009. But do you think I could find it online to link to this blog post? Nahhhhhhhhhh. I may as well plagarise, since apparently The Australian couldn't be bothered posting this article to its website, but I can't be bothered so I'll just say it's about cool wine labels. Not just cool wine labels, of the type designed to attract young 20 something drinkers, but cool wine labels that are backed up by decent wines. I decided to try some of the bottles mentioned, just to make sure the wines were decent chop.
I've tasted the Ad Hoc Wallflower Riesling and The Killer Pinot Grigio but have yet to lay hands on Mother's Milk by First Drop or Monsters, Monsters Attack by Some Young Punks. The Some Young Punks Website is quite annoying with its applets and suchlike, but with names like The Squid's Fist, Double Love Trouble, Drink'n'Stick, Naked on Roller Skates, Quickie!, The Fire In Her Eyes and Passion Has Red Lips I've gotta get my hands on some.
By the way, Ad Hoc Wallflower Riesling and The Killer Pinot Grigio are heartily recommended. Both can be purchased at Dan Murphy's.

When I read a review of the Some Young Punks' range my first thought was "crap, why didn't we think of that?"
So, Senji, why didn't we think of that?
I know. It's terribly clever. What else goes well with alcohol? Penguin novels?
Tramampoline! Trambampoline!

I say we just spend our evenings reading this site and drinking alcohol.
[Developing a product would then require that we sell it, run a business, and etc; who's got time to work AND, as you would say, fabulise?]
