You've just reminded me of that advert where the cart gets piled up with lager (was it 4X or 6X - an Aussie beer advert anyway) . then it topples over because they add on one bottle of sherry for the women.
Guinness or nothing. Ok, not nothing, was drinking Staropramen at Newmarket yesterday. A decent pint. Then a carafe of Merlot with the meal in the evening.
Drank John Smiths at York races yesterday. Horrible stuff but to be sociable I sank a few. Then later back into town and onto Black Sheep ale then a couple of bottles of Hobgoblin. Not sure what I drank after that but enjoyed them all.
Like Black Sheep and the dark Hobgoblin, Speckled Hen is an acceptable pale ale.can't drink lager too gassy.
Now that really is taking the piss. It's not even that dear in Scandinavia. Thank god I live in the Land of the Prince Bishops where the beer is cheap.
I had 8 pints of Black Sheep one night, wanted to fight everyone around me and ended up getting baaaahed..
