The Beer Thread

[Sparkler]

Yep dedicated to beer in all its varieties.

Some of my favourites include Murphy's and Beamish Stouts, Smithwicks ale,Bishop's finger,Palm Belgian beer,any of the Trappisten Ales,when it comes to lagers then my favourites include Tiger Beer,Kingfisher,Brahma Brasilian beer,I've also tried several eastern european beers and they seem pretty good. Another I have tried when I've been lucky to be in America to get it is Blue Moon Pumpkin Ale

What beers do you like and which should we all steer clear of?

Guinness

 

[Sparkler]

Guinness is okay but the others are much tastier IMO. I know several people who have been converted to them from Guinness due to a smoother taste.

 

[Boomer]

Not much of a choice here in the states though. Yummy stuff dood.

Green King IPA
Any beer which has the word "ice" in its title
Magners Irish cider (sorry Irish people but you should be ashamed for marketing successfully this overpriced weak shit onto us!)

theres worse beers to stir away from here in America. This tell you how large beer makers rank in the US.

I'm sure there is! There's some good micro breweries in the USA but generally I find commercial American lager worth steering clear of and even worse than the shit the Aussies turf out!

Yeh we have some nice Micro Brews

 

[Peter Parka]

Not a big favorite amongst real ale drinkers but I actually liked Petes wicked ale when I tried it and, no, the name had nothing to do with it!

 

[Dana]

Anyone watch The Thirsty Traveller?

Budweiser (the American shit not the real stuff which is quality)

[Sparkler]

Magners Irish cider (sorry Irish people but you should be ashamed for marketing successfully this overpriced weak shit onto us!)

Depends what you call weak Peter,Magners is 6% so a lot stronger than most beers on the market.
