James Squire Amber Ale
James Squire Golden Ale

VB
Tooheys New
Carlton Draught

:barscarf:

Can't be sure about the last three (only list them because I seem to drink them regularly), but the top two should be high on anyone's list of brilliant beers.

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:

Tankhouse - good rich Canadian beer.

Excellent choice, I actually live quite close to the Mill Street Brewery, I had no idea they actually distributed in the UK.

Aside from that, I'm a fan of:
Hobgoblin
Fiddler's Elbow
Dogfish Head 90 minute IPA
Waterloo Dark (Another local brew)

1. Summer lighting ale
2. Harveys
3. Guinness
4. Heineken
5. Krouenbourg 1664

I usually hate most ciders, but stomford press is quite nice, especially after a dehydrating walk to the pub

I had it in Canada with BBQ. What a good brew!

Good to see Irish Gooner likes Harveys, another really good pint.
