Beers

Monteiths Golden - Loving it.

Tuborg and Steinys on Tap - mmmm

Orangeboom on Tap = delisch in bottle = mm not bad

Guinness always a good meal, just found out some ladies like em with grenedine

Stella is the Parnel Lion Red. STELLA IS BALLS.

Mac beers went down hard after they sold out, (Monteiths kills em anyway)

Just wanted to talk about beers today.

Forums: The Bar,

cough cough *boozehound* cough cough splutter

;-P

Excellent topic .. perfect for the bar!

Monteiths Original ... my tipple of choice at the moment.

And Tennants lager (in the UK) came in the most attractive packaging ...

surely stu you've tried the golden? orig is a good drop too don't get me wrong,

For me a good beer should be a like a hearty meal or at least equivalent to 2 weetbix . . . . mmmm malty!! And you shouldn’t be able to see through it – the darker the better!

guinness my man!

Speights Old Dark -- combination of taste and price-point for home comsumption
Wanaka Tall Black -- top choice if feeling wealthy
Nelson Bays Brewery Exclamator -- chocolately doppelbock with the 8% kick; good-time guaranteed; 2L rigger enough to get several people sloshed
Speights Distinction/Monteiths Original -- widely availabel tap beers of choice
Emersons Oatmeal Stout -- delicious meal in a bottle
Beer Chang -- excellent with dodgy curries on Thai airlines

mmmmmm

Best beer I've had was in France - Penfolds Special Christmas Ale 97' (I think it was an English beer though?)
you would of loved it Limegreen

best thing about dark beers is you can load up your fridge with em' and when your mates bowl around your beers stay in the fridge cause all your lemonade drinking friends are saying "wheres the Tui?"

Also good for partys cause no-one nicks your beers.

heheh. all very true.

i just can't manage more than 3 in a row. i get too full and need to have a lie down.

like I keep saying. all you need is a "Big Can Ran" or twenty.

I wonder if certain members familiar with that phrase are still kicking.

Carl with a K is the Big Can Ran king.

mmmm big can rans.

Amstel Bier - Not the light shit they are selling, just the normal Amstel lager

That and real Heiniken (made in Holland)

Reinneck, Joseph Keutz, Hawkes bay draught, double brown, and NZ lager

//Reinneck, Joseph Keutz, Hawkes bay draught, double brown, and NZ lager

MY MAN!

dad???

Can you still get HB Draught?

Anything near-frozen with the word "Beer" on the label, even if it looks suspiciously like a tin of paint thinner.

I know it's considered wrong in some circles but I reckon the colder it is, the better it tastes.

. . . and the good thing about paint thinner is that it doesn't freeze!

"Bittersweat" more man in every can

It has been homebrew heaven at my flat.
Pretty good stuff indeed especially when you can proudly say "I made it...with love".
Though there is the odd mishap. One of my flatmates was making a mexican lager that decided it wanted out of the bottle. He had them stored under his bed. A couple exploded. Ha, ha. He also took to a few bottles with a BB gun, they exploded in one shot. Actually now that I think about it they seemed pregnant, bulging like they had been facehugged; secretly harbouring deadly aliens. The cat has been acting funny but the cat has always acted funny. The cat is always keen to get in on the homebrew.

I know it's australian & I bring shame to myself for even mentioning it, but its gotta be said - Coopers Pale Ale, preferably on tap, is the finest beer I have ever had. Followed closely by montieths gold, then perhaps becks - but only on tap mind.

Yup, no shame in that- excellent beer, easily their best IMHO.

oh and Becks yes lovely and waaaay cooler than Heineken

I have been known to chug a few becks, stella or heinekens back manamana!! mmmmmm

double browns hahahahaha fuckin great!! GO BLACK GO BLACK!!!!

personally i'm quite partial to the 2L refil pay less bitter flagons, for $5

I remember those!!!! Rheinek under the GI tunnel and there was only one man in GI who could score them when we were 13 and it wasn't me!!!! hahaha

I've got a thing for Export Dry, but that might just be because it gets me drunk quicker than any other beer. Also because I am girlie, I am full of love for Corona and all Monteith's specials, except for the Radler. If I'm drinking cheap jugs, I'd prefer speights to export gold or tui please.

You should try Heineken for a night - or Stella that'll throw you around just nicely

mmmmm....cheap jugs

Heineken's okay, but Stella is yuck.

// I am full of love for Corona

a couple of Corona's are ok now and then, but it's hardly a real beer don't you recon?

But it's tasty and helps one's intake of vitamin c!

so is ribena :P

And I drink that too, but it needs vodka for the same effect. Plus ribena doesn't make me feel like a poser in the late eighties.

Chimay anyone - they have a 12%er taste like kava though

i'm off to Gailbraiths after work.

mmm chimay blue arrgggg or Duvel??

isn't there 3? i only know them as blue whit and red

yes indeed..

nice, gotta love those monks eh

Don't mean to sound like a Ponsonby knob gobbler but if there is one thing that goes perfectly with beer its a brutally hot curry!! I went to Sawadee in Ponsonby once and ordered a dish called Chicken Fai Gai which is the dish they entered into a competition for who cooks the hottest thai (cause I'm such a well hung stud). I had four mouthfuls of that shit and I've never drank so much beer following in such a small space of time!!! I left the dish and tucked into my girlfriends (dish) (girlfriend at the time not her ..... but her dish)

hoegaarden very underated beer (on tap)

i'm going to De Post after work

oooo damn i could do some beves after work!!! Friday is pay day so must be patient!! I reckon a pub on Friday!!

you are the only person i know that likes beer more than me.

friday arvo could be on.

count me in

Friday???? its tuesday tonight.. if theres ever a night to go out to the pub and get sloshed and with all this thought of beer ...... manamana you trying to brainwash us?

// i started this topic on tuesday and i'm going to talk about it all week so by friday there will be some messy cunts.

Bro I am so going out tonight. And tomorrow. And Friday (though that will most likely be a quiet one). And then Saturday. You have truly inspired me to drink fuckloads of beer and for that I thank you. I will commence this bender by performing the 100 beer shots in 100 mins routine tonight.
