Beer?

[User169]

Tesco are corporate scum of the highest order but they've got Duvel in at 3 for a fiver, be mental not to.

Desert island beer. No discussion. Unbeatable.

Mind you, I'm giving the Straffe Hendrik a run for the money at the moment. I like the tripel better than the quadrupel. It's really good on tap at the Halve Maan, which is worth a visit to Bruges in itself.G][/quote]

I'll be in Bruges tomorrow morning at 7am for the ronde sportive. Bit early for a beer! I'm deffo going to give the old strafe hendrik a go though tomorrow night, although I'll be in gent.

Bit of a shrine there! The bar I'm in right now has a good selection, including 666!

Hope you had some of that Rasputin, it's a taste sensation.

What did you make of the 666 Deepee?

Just checked €9.70 on XE and you're paying 18p more than I did in Newcastle, way aye man!

Was drinking Schneider Weisse Nelson Sauvin - not bad at all!

It's terrible, been out to the garage and all there is is 3 cans of John smiths smooth and a bottle of riddles county.

I have a glass of water on the go.

I have to buy a couple of crates of German beer for a party. Any recommendations for something easily available and popular? (Will be buying in Germany next week.)

Paulaner serve up the goods pretty well, I'm far from an expert on German beer though.

Had a couple so far tonight, blue monkey - sanctuary was a little disappointing, v hoppy for a session beer, went flat and dull v quickly. Peak ales noggin filler is a cracker though, rich and malty. Very satisfying.

On the weisbier front, Schneider Weisse is excellent and easy to find.

Prosit, guys. Paulaner, Schneider Weisse and Diebels Alt are on the shopping list.
