MickyB Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 None - Cider (Merrydown and Weston's) and spirits all the way :) Actually, I once found a Russian Beer that didn't taste like...well, beer. That was ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrothgar Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 My homemade stuff beats almost anything that you'll find commercially... With this said and done, here are a few of my favorites: Delirium TremensOld Rasputin Russian Imperial StoutChimay WhiteFull Sail lager In general, I'm partial to any on tap, especially if its brewed locally.However, Australian beer is an exception to this rule. As far as I can tell almost allAustralian beer is piss... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echognome Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 The beer in England is generally much better than in the States. However, in the states you can find many more better beers from, e.g. Germany, that you cannot find in England. I certainly miss The Brickskeller in Washington, D.C. Nothing on tap but the selection of international beers was second to none: http://www.thebrickskeller.net/_wsn/page3.html My favourite beer of those that I've tried is Paulaner Hefeweizen. There are quite a few local brews here that are just excellent on tap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshs Posted March 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 I think my once a year wine shipment from australia is arriving today! As usual, half my order is wines from my favorite wine maker, Ben Riggs. I also got a bottle of Domaine Sathenay Peche de Vigne Peach Liqueur, since I have a sweet tooth at heart. Party at my house tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberlour10 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 German "ALT" beers brewed strict under the "German Purity Law" of 1516(the oldest food-releted law does still exists) pure nature! Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 You should come to Germany :ph34r: MANY good beers around here! My personal favourite is Warsteiner, next comes Paulaner Hefeweizen christallklar. All in all I like redwine more... Caren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 The beer in England is generally much better than in the States. That's debatable. Well, it would be like arguing whether Germany or Brazil have the better Cricket team. Anyway, I still drink beer, although I spent a year in England. Hefeweizen (helles), of course.

Walddk Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Carlsberg .... probably the best beer (lager) in the world. Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigi_BC84 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 However, Australian beer is an exception to this rule. As far as I can tell almost all Australian beer is piss... Indeed. (It also made me pee more often than "regular" beer.) --Sigi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigi_BC84 Posted March 11, 2006 Report Share Posted March 11, 2006 Hefeweizen (helles), of course. Do you drink it with coke, banana juice? To those of you who might wonder: It is very common in Germany to mix all kinds of beer with coke. Wheat beer actually is mixed with banana juice even. Very tasty. --Sigi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pclayton Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Fond of the grape, not of hops. Unless: 1. Its St. Patty's day (or Im at a pub) and I will have a Guinness in my hand most of the day. 2. I'm doing landscaping in the yard. 3. Visiting my wife's family (where my choices are crappy wine or Coors Lite; I'll take the latter). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceptic Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 well I can see we have some very astute people here Josh, Theakstons Old Peculiaris spot on good choice (you may wish to try Greene King Abott Ale in there, my favorite all time beer, Consiliation Ale is a close second) Richard, Australian beer is like piss (almost correct, but some of it is not that strong) most English Beers (of note) and I can list probably 20 - 30 of the top of my head that would come in the top 100 beers in the world. England rules as far as beer is concerned, I am not biased in this opinion, I am just stating a fact. I find it offensive that wine should be mentioned in a beer post, you should start your own post under good quality antifreezes, with special consideration for Czech wine as a first rate engine treatment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarenAgree but when you are in Germany Belgium is not very far and I'm sure we have a lot of the best beers in the World (even if we don't have the Carlberg, he Roland ! :lol: ) Alain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr1303 Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Inch's Cider, made by St Austell brewery (in Cornwall) and the only place I've ever seen it is in the Rock Inn, in the little seaside village of Rock (the amount I drink when I go there shocks even me).

spwdo Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Again i have to point out to sceptic that belgian beer is the best in the world, he is rather sceptic about that but recently west-vleteren was voted again best beer in the world. noone except me(on this forum, hmm false, think Free has consumed a lot of those, prolly also to blame why they were sold out of west-vleteren last time i went for it) probaly tasted this beer since its brewed very limited, a real shame but i`ll buy you one when u visit belgium. as for other beers, try a trappist.6 out 7 of those that were awarded the honour of allowing the beer to be called trappist are belgian brwed beers. Chimay, orval, Westmalle, Achel, rochefort and best beer in the world west vleteren off course are excellent choices. other country`s , must say that the czech -republic has excellent beers also. Need more info on trappist check the link, found a site that has info in engish aswell http://www.trappistbeer.net/trappist_portalEN.htm have fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
