I used to drink nothing but the creamiest of bitters, but recently discovered Grolsch, which is amazing. The nicest beer I've ever had.

I'm not much of a drinker anyway, usually preferring a nice cold glass of Sprite to a mug of ale, but I could drink Grolsch by the gallon.

[Paradigm]

I don't really touch anything other than bitter if I'm going to have a drink. I find it has a much nicer aftertaste than any other lagers or beers. I'm a sucker for Worthington Creamflow, but I'll try any nice off-the-shelf big-bottle ales and stuff.

[Sng]

I like Harveys.

Speckled Hen is good.

Nothing better on a night out than Stella and a fight, mind.

[CrispinG]

Stella is some fucked up, repugnant shit.

I don't know how anyone can drink that Eurotrash pish.

[Sng]

I don't really. I don't drink any lager to be honest. Not these days! I prefer bitter.

Yet that gives anyone a gut, so I do drink lager on occasion. It's great on a hot day.

It's hard to judge stuff on tap anyway. Best lager I've had was a fucking Fosters from some pub in London. It was PERFECT. It's all about the... things downstairs. Keggy thing, and pipes.

Carlsberg Export

Grolsch

Orangeboom (Thats always on bogof in Morrisons)

[Looper]

Fuller's Organic Honeydew Ale

Spitfire

Desperado

My favourite lager is probably Asahi, but it's a bastard to get.

It used to be, but most supermarkets seem to do it nowadays.

[Sng]

Where do you make up all these names from? It's the same with music, gotta avoid the popular ones to make you look special.

Admit it, you all drink Carling 90% of the time!

Desperado

My favourite lager is probably Asahi, but it's a bastard to get.

Is Desperado the revolting stuff which has tequila mixed with beer?

[CrispinG]

That's rich. Speckled Hen indeed, you bumpkin ponce.

[JPickford (retired mod)]

Holt's Bitter.

[Sng]

Only said it to fit in. I'm not a big fan of it. Harveys is sent from the Gods, though.

My tastes in music are rather ordinary, but beer is one of the few things in life I'm snobby about.

Carling is wazz.

[Halonic]

Its winter so Hobgoblin is back, yay!!!!

[Wickedkitten]

Waggledance and Golden Glory.

Golden Glory is ace because its got a melony undertone which is actually quite nice.

[Poppalarge]

I am a fan of leffe, but currently i'm enjoying asahi

[Spacehost]

My usual is a Tennents 80/-, I think they call it Ember or something. Creamy like you won't believe. Can't believe it's made in the same place as Super and Special.

But, really, you can't beat a pint Budvar. Makes the usual bog-water drivel folk call lager cower in the corner.

[Luke]

I really liked the beer they had in Romania (and it was cheaper than the cheapest chips) they don't seem to export any though, or nobody imports it

[JPickford (retired mod)]

they don't seem to export any though, or nobody imports it

Or both!

[nohsa]

Stauder

[Fondue]

Summer Lightning.

Golden Glory (the slightly peachy one).

Well, almost certainly, but was it the chicken or the egg?

Enville Ale

Firestone Double Barrel Ale

Holt's Bitter.

Holts is only for when you're feeling poor.
