Many Belgian beers are better than bitter. As are many German ones. Though, of course, that is my personal preference. I always drank bitter when younger but as I have got older my tastes have changed. Tend to drink cider, decent ones not the standard pub ones, nowadays.
Wife bought one 8 years ago for commuting, 10 miles lots of hills, best thing she ever did. And they're better now than they were then.
Saw it too Balkan; after watching them in the flesh at the IoM I think an E class will be great sport.
Think I had too much cider at uni and in my early 20s. started to prefer general refreshing pilsner types now. I used to try and find crafted, artisan made beers and ciders now I'm happy with Coors Light, or even those stubbies you get from supermarket where it's about 2 quid for 12.
Coors Light is too light for me. Unfortunately the ciders I have come across and enjoyed most in Somerset, Devon and Dorset aren't sold on draught in pubs up here, where it is normally the usual crap like Strongbow etc.
Correct. The older ones are a bit heavy to ride normally though. I'd guess the newer ones are a lot lighter.
Yes, I normally get Cornish Rattler and Weston's Vintage when in Morrison's. Had one called Mortimer's Orchard, they are owned by Weston's, in Wales which I would happily drink if they ever sold it in any pubs round my way. Love it in Somerset, Devon, Dorset where you can get 7 or 8 different draught ciders in some pubs.
