I've tried loads. Guiness, Brown Ale, Kroninburg, 1779 or w/e it's called, Stella Artois, Carlsberg, and many others. Tasted no difference really.

You tasted no difference between Guinness and Carlsberg? Weird... But anyway yeah, the lagers you mentioned there don't have too much between then in taste really: they're all similar in flavour and insanely popular in the UK for a reason - it sells. Certainly not grounds to entirely dismiss beer when there's an enormous range of flavours and styles out there that are absolutely nothing like those that you've mentioned.
 
Well your last sentence will be proven totally wrong once you've tried beers that don't taste like diluted urine (such disgusting drinks include: Carling, Fosters, UK Carlsberg). Fair enough if it isn't your thing; though I think you should give a couple of revered Trappist beers a go some time. They're absolutely brimming with unique flavour.

I hate you. Fosters is nice i'm drinking it now <ok> I thought you weren't a drinker Tash.
 
Yeah <laugh> I used to get them from time to time when I had a spare 10p. They and Dandy Bars were easily the most tooth damaging kids snacks ever invented. Those Dandy Bars pretty much were made out of acid and were so sticky that if you chewed into them once, you almost had to physically prize your jaw open again <laugh>.

Haven't heard about Dandy bars for years! I always struggled getting the wrapper off as it would be glued to the damn bar half the time!
 
Yes its alright on its own. But in Fabios in Durham they put lime in the bottle and its ****ing rank.

Although I prefer lime to lemon, I wouldn't want it in my beer, I bought a Morgans Spice and Coke in town, the barman rubbed a lime around the rim of my glass, it was rotten! Ruined my drink.

Toxic Waste was pretty rough. You could see the holes it corroded in your tongue and gums. I can remember one of my mates put as many as he could fit into his mouth in one go, his face was screwed up cause they were so sour and blood running out of his mouth. And they always said smoking was bad for us...

One of my mates burnt off a tonne of his taste buds doing a similar thing. Anyone remember Brain Lickers?
 
<laugh> Remember those chocolate ***s? ****ty chocolate (could've had tobacco in for all I know, it was horrible) wrapped with what I hope was edible paper. They'd never make anything like that now.
