Hoegarrden beer

Tawny Port - ten year old if possible!


A god port is hard to beat.

You may keep Hoegarrden though its too gingery and lemony for my tastes, can't beat a good strong Belgian beer, something over 10% is my fave.

Would be a pleasure!  Maybe in the Glue Pot before a game next season.

I have usually got an unfortunate driving/kids in tow situation on match days - I will have to try and get the wife to act as taxi one day.

Ive been drinking Doom Bar quite a bit up Old Town, like it a lot, so I bought a box from Majestic. But I think its been giving me a runny nose the next day.

Some people say the 'Reinheitsgebot' thing is rubbish, but I very rarely wake up with anything more than a dry mouth with those beers.

Ive got a great selection in the fridge, its saturday night and Im off to go pick one now. From Paulaner Helles, Becks, London Pride, Doom Bar, 1 x Fruh Kolsch and 1 Franzikaner wheat beer.

You're totally right. I've found if you stick to clean German beer and you often wake hangover-less. We spent a long weekend in Germany and had day sessions several days on the trot and I never had anything that could be classed as a hangover, despite having no idea how I got back to the hotel.

I was a die hard lager drinker for years up until a couple of years ago when I suddenly started to struggle with the gassiness. So after trying a few real ales at a beer festival, decided to give ale a go and now very rarely drink lager. As someone else has said, its great to go into a new pub somewhere and try a new ale, whether a dark porter or light summery ale. Not a member of CAMRA, have considered it, but its the stereotypical beardy folky sandal wearing type that puts me off.

I've developed a bit of a taste for Guinness recently, culminating on Saturday night in my first full session on the stuff, never had a worse dump than yesterday morning.

Guinness is very expensive out here.

It's a rare treat.

On another note, our cricket club have got Peroni on tap now. £4 a pint is hardly suprising for such a drop but the members price offers a whopping 5p discount at £3.95 a jar. Robbing cunts.

I couldn't find it anywhere when i was there! Is it quite accessible?

I'll drink most stuff apart from Rum - makes me feel sick.

Had a pint of ale - arrogant bastard 7.2% - knocked me off my feet after a few.
