Like both ale and lagers me, Stella used to be the best lager by far until they ****ed about with it. When it was brewed to 5.2% vol it was nectar, now it's gnat's piss just like mainstream lagers. To be honest anything brewed under 5% vol is dishwater to my pallet <ok>

I always had you down to be a Carlsberg Special Brew drinker...

You generally don't find anything on the continent that's weaker than 5%. I agree, anything less is piss water.
I have to admit welly, I was a Special Brew boy for a while. I remember the first thing I did when I stayed in Cali back in 2001 was hit the liquor store to buy a 40 ounce of Olde English (malt liquor) before we'd even got to the apartment from the airport. I then sat on the porch drinking Boyz in the Hood style. <gangster>
 
We have Julbrew out here it's 4.7% and a half decent lager, apart from that it's just local spirt 'sum sum' and palm wine. Not a lot of choice but better than nothing. Had the opportunity to drink some of your Adnams whiskey recently. Ain't half bad to be honest.
 
Ghost Ship, Wherry, and Calvor's Lodestar are nice pints.

Peroni, San Miguel, Kronenbourg, and (winces) Fosters are not bad either.
