I developing a real taste for a dark beer. Stouts and porters. Had a Murphy's last night. Very smooth. My daughter's been raving about Kilkenny, which she had in Canada. Can't seem to get it here.

 

Just had a wee look and your right, can't see it anywhere, used to get it in Tesco, Asda etc, but not now it seems.

[jimmyjambo]

Had this a couple of nights ago, absolutely lovely, a hint of maple syrup about it

[Notts1874]

I you see this anywhere give it a go. Tastes like Jammy Dodgers

Bought this wee Sub machine for draught beer in the house. Buying the Torps for it is a wee bit pricier than bottles...but the quality is worth it.

 

Fresh cold Birra Moretti in yer own gaff.

Takes a wee bit of practice to get the head right but when you do its a great bit of kit.

Definitely make sure you have the machine and the Torp cold before pouring.

The Moretti is the bollox.

Had a can of their Marshmallow Porter recently. Absolutely vile, had to chuck the stuff down the sink!

Sister used to live in England in the 80's and carling black label was  amazin when she brought it back up the road.

These days its awful,flavoured water at best.

+1 for that. I used to drink it in the early 70s and it was excellent. Damned hard to get it on tap in Scotland back then though - the big breweries all had 'geographic' distribution agreements which would be out and out illegal now. Always looked forward to visiting my cousins in Coventry.....

[benny]

A good pint of Boddingtons is my favourite.

Tenants ice cold and Belhaven best up here in Scotland.

Recipe is exactly the same 😉....It's always been shite 😂.

I had barney's version, at summerhall. Tremendous.

Its International Beer Day.....im sure you all knew that anyway. Here is a breakdown of the most popular beers per region according to a poll. I would think CGA data would give a slightly different answer.

 

One thing it does show is that we mostly like shite tasteless lager.

 

 

[jambos are go!]

Virtually gone tee total but still can't resist a pint of Tennents Lager when I have a real thirst. Always delivers. 

[Forza Cuore]

Tennents give me the shits. Figures as it also tastes like shit 😂

Thought Wales was meant to be impoverished? Peroni indeed... 

[A Boy Named Crow]

I don’t know how popular it is in the UK, but over here, pacific ale has really taken off. It started I think with Stone &Wood, but there are loads of brands now. Absolutely cracking on a hot summer evening!

I would rather drink my own urine than Fosters or Carlsberg.

Really, if there was a choice of Fosters , Carlsberg or my own pish , I would have to but not want to drink fosters or carlsberg , you can't get pissed on your own piss ..seemingly 

[Dagger Is Back]

Had a pint of this in the I&G pub last night. Had to get another few bottles today.

 

 

[the general]

When in London I was drinking a beer from Uprising brewery called White Riot and it was really nice 

Also tried Brixton pale ale ... very drinkable

I agree with you regarding Fosters but, what’s wrong with Carlsberg? Not the 3.8ABV, I hasten to add (it’s very poor) but the Carlsberg Export is a good pint.

[Jambo-Jimbo]

Currently drinking a bottle of this.

 

 

It's a Lithuanian Blackcurrant Stout, although I don't know where they get the stout part from as it's just like drinking alcoholic ribena.

Just ordered one on the strength of your posts.

 

Got one of the compact black subs, 5 x Moretti, and 5x SOL for £117 notes.

 

Bit of a Williams Brothers man at the moment but quite like a refreshing lager once in a while.

Once you get the hang of pouring (doesn't take long) it's well worth the investment . Tastes so much better than cans or bottles. Nice wee thing at parties for folk to pour their own beers. Enjoy 👍

Much as I hate to admit it, I was quite enjoying Brewdog's Elvis Juice at the weekend. Quite a strong brew at 6.5%-ish, but lovely and refreshing on a summer's day.

Like drinking Best just now, was sick off getting bagged up drinking lager or cider so gave it a go and now wondering why it took me so long to try it.

If I'm out all day drinking I'll go for Best. 

Light with a refreshing taste, and weak enough that 12 pints won't do you too much harm the following morning.

Before i started drinking it id maybe have 5 pints max then move onto the nips, now i can drink Best all night if i wanted and as you say doesn't give you the worst of a hangover either.
