:finger: :lol:


In no particular order:

Tribute Cornish Ale
Guinness
Pilsner Urquell
Kuerzer Altbier
Kreuzberger Molle
Päffgen Koelsch
Affligem
M&S County Carlow Stout
Hooky Gold
Bitburger Pils




:cheers:
marc, do you know anywhere in London that sells that Paulaner Pils you & Rob were telling me about a while back? The one Rob said tasted better than Shakira’s fanny. :lol: Pretty sure I remember someone telling me that Hen & Chicken place across the roundabout from H&I station sells it :?, but if I’m down that end of HR I may as well just pop in to the Wig & Gown instead - the beer in there is always so fresh. :lol:
Yep, I know that the Hen and Chickens had it, haven't been there for a while though. It is good, but just couldn't squeeze it into to my top 10

And re the Wig :lol: :lol: - if you're going there, do it before the end of the season. I have promised swale that if we win the league, I'll run naked down holloway rd and into the wig. :oops: :shock:

:wink:

rebel, I would be interested to know what foods you like...Murphy's nice, but the rest (esp john smiths) barely taste of anything...AT ALL.

Have you been tested for taste buds? :lol: :wink:

Czech beers are all great...Kozel, Gambrinus (who sponsor their Premiership), Starropramen, Pilsner Urquell...all quality lagers.

I am surprised that a lot of german beers were named (there are better german beers than Radeberger or Bitburger).

My 5 favourites:

Becks
Jever
Budweiser (Cech)
Franziskaner
Guinness
