jeremymacgregor87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 not sure if it technically is beer nicely done sir
Guest Gary C Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 I like all of the Wychwood ales. But I go through stages. The past six months I've mainly been drinking Amstel, before that it was Becks Vier and then Guinness during the winter. I've had a resurgent taste for Guinness over the past few weeks, so I think I'll move back into stouts and ales for the winter. I just wish I could afford Guinness. At £3+, lagers are much more cost-effective, but then they leave me with a gassy feeling. It's not too bad over the summer, but when it's cold outside I don't want to be stifling uncomfortable burps and hiccups. Unfortunately the pub inwhich I work, and drink, has let slip on their ales lately as I've found nothing that I could start drinking regularly. In fact, in all honesty, I'd rather not drink cask ales there at all because I know how often they fuck them up, so I'm only left with John Smith's and Guinness. Fuck it, I'll have Guinness tonight though.

Guest Gary C Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 My local beer Oakham Ales are my closest (I think). JHB is pretty standard, but popular.
ericsosh Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Rochefort. No matter if it's 6, 8, 10 or even 12: all of them are great.
keltoi Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 guinness but i got some dark stout home-brew just ready.
Guest theSun Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 lol landshark old rasputin is up there for me, but i've never had anything in the same league as a rochefort 8
goffer Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 too hard... some good ones I have had recently: Alpine - Bad Boy Russian River - Temptation Lost Abby - Angel's Share North Coast Brewing - Old Rasputin XII
Guest blicero Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 my favorite is the white ale..num num I've only ever had the Lacto Sweet Stout, and it was good but insanely fizzy. Is the White Ale as fizzy, or was it just because of the added lactose?
kakapo Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 I'll kick things off earth-shattering The Cantillon Gueuze is awesome too, if an acquired taste.
kakapo Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 You fucking asshole I'm sorry, you're right, the Cantillon Gueuze is merely quite good.
Guest blicero Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Strongbow But only when you can't find a proper Zima, right?
goffer Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 (edited) Forgot I ingested a good deal of artisan ales from the Jolly Pumpkin brewery.... for those of you lambic peoples, I suggest you check them out. Though they aren't brewed primarily with fruit, you do, however, get the refreshing tart notes of lemon zest plus sour fruit taste due to barrel aging : Edited September 17, 2009 by goffer
Guest abusivegeorge Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Strongbow But only when you can't find a proper Zima, right? As in Zima frame?
