    I'm embracing Heineken Export in bottles at the minute, previously disliked but it's a grower.

    Possibly cos it's on special in Shark Bar when the footies on, but that could be coincidental..

    Heineken taste better bottled than draught, their dark beer is good too around 8% in alcohol volume - they have the licence for loads of European brands

    Aye, gota be bottled like, funny how some are better in bottles, some on draught.

    Grolsch is one, good in bottles, average in cans, lifting on draught. Weird.

    Michelob is ok for a Yank beer made by Anheuser-Busch brewery - reminds me of a joke about a German named Helga going into a Brit pub on a hot day and saying she needed a cold beer to cool her down and the bar barman says - 'Anheuser Busch'? -Helga blushed and she replied to hot for your schwanz Dummkopf!

    I enjoy beer too, enjoy some IPA, great stuff but here's the kicker, wine drunk is better than beer drunk. Trust me it's a different kind of drunk.

    WMS get out of the 70's and stop walking round as if your carrying wardrobes under your arms FFs. If it makes you feel more of a man nite the top off the bottle of wine and drink it directly from the bottle ;)

    My lass loves the Wychwood Brewery. Loves her beer. Not for me, it's like a meal in a glass. Lager or spirits for me.

    For a light red Pinot Noir is my grape of choice. For some more unusual whites look at Alsace Riesling or Gerwertztraminer (sp?)

    There's a homeless chap I tread past every morning on the way to the gym, he likes one called Lambrini or Lambrusco... he seems not fussy between the two and judging by his state I'd imagine you'd have a great night on it mate.
