I've met you Sippo and you don't have a beard, or wear tweed jackets with leather elbow patches.
Why are you interested in CAMRA?
Good beers. One thing I hate is pubs that don't clean their pipes. You should go to a beer festival. http://www.photosaroundswindon.co.uk/galleries/2008a/index.html

I guess I'm lucky in that I can drink lager, bitter, stout or mild as the mood takes me, so long as it's good stuff. Walking down the pub on Friday after work, it's a nice feeling deciding what I'll drink. I've been drinking a lot of black lagers recently...however, I will now open a bottle of Ukrainian wheat beer.

I was drinking quite a bit of Farmer's Christmas Stout this week in an old man's pub in Maldon. The beer was excellent, although quite pricey at £3 a pint.

Likewise...depends on mood, pub, weather, time of day, time of year etc.

Totally agree Beer festivals are quality. Chippenham used to have a decent one, not sure if it's still going. Dodgy beer lines are shit but sometimes its a dodgy barrel as well which pub managers should declare as ullage and gets picked up or disposed of by a technician.

absolutely. I default to Guinness, but will drink anything that isn't made of apples.

At the beerex the ciders were immense. Real Cider I mean, not strongbow/magners/other crap. At 7.8% you cannot go wrong.
Well you can like me, because if you drink too much your gut kills the next morning.

Some of the ciders down here are fucking lethal. There's one called Black Rat. I've seen hardened beer drinkers reduced to gibbering wrecks after a session on that.
Nasty shit.

If you're gonna drink cider then there is only one choice, Cheddar Valley.

In nmy early/mid 20s I used to drink lager in summer and beer/ales in winter as a rule, but as time has gone on I've dropped drinking lager almost completely. In summer these days I tend to go for IPAs...which I'm really quite in to now. A great style of beer.

Wash four pints of that down with a couple of bottles of Natch and see if you can still find your way home :-)

I used to drink guinness in winter and lager in summer, but I tend to stick to the black stuff all year round now. Can't beat a Guinness.
