Alcohol taste problem
« on: 31 March 2009, 21:15:41 »

I have got an expensive alcohol problem

Basically I have gone right off cheap canned booze

This means I now have to drink better stuff.

Had a nice cider last night

Just finishing a bottle of Budvar tonight

Got some Stella and Kronenberg to drink and I don#t know if I want to

Not a fan of canned beer - always prefer bottles.  Even my beloved Stella isn't so good from cans, better from bottles.  Still, its a damn sight better than the daft Stella at my crap local, The Chequered Flag.

Best Stella I even tasted was 100yrds from the Stella factory in Leuven ::)

I get the feeling that UK brewed foreign lagers are a pale imitation of the real thing

Ooh here's a subject I'm interested in!
I have to agree, Stella is better in bottles but for some reason I reckon Kronenburg ain't too bad in cans!
I was at a real ale festival on Saturday, interesting!

The 500ml bottle of Budvar was nice and reminded me that the occasional lager is nice

give up the daft pikey wagon, forget cornwall (you must have done that to death), and try somewhere different.  Bruge is recommended by me...

Martin, Go down to Stourport and go into a river side pub and ask for a pint of River Water.
That stuff could clean the underside of the Titanic and I bet they wont serve you to more than a half
Its scrumpy at its most lethal
