Totally agree. Guinness in Dublin, with Irish live music around tastes better than in a spoons in England. Now the drink itself maybe a bit better there anyhow, but the experience lifts it. Same as drinking a stein of Hofbrau at the Hofbrauhaus... -
Naisy'sCharitableLeanings replied to the thread Your First, Last and Best Beer.Franziskaner? Really good weißbier, that. I got back into it when I went to Munich a couple of years ago. Might now be my favourite style of beer. Happily, a few of the supermarkets carry a few different brands - Weihenstephaner, Paulaner and...

First: probably a Zima (not beer) or Coors. The first I remember was in a dive across from the university dorm when the drinking law in Louisiana was still very confusing and most bars didn't care how old you were if you could walk in the door...

A proper decent lager or pilsner is absolutely glorious!! I've done a 360 over the years. When younger it was purely (crap) lagers.. As I got to 30's it was trendy IPA's and ales.. Now in my 40's I've gone back to lagers and pilsners. There's...

First memorable: (excluding the sip of my da's homegrown, after hours of nagging as I say on his lap aged 3) Old Peculiar - pub somewhere near Inglesham. Velvet, warm, smooth, flavoursome. Latest: Oakham Citra in the Old Kings Head in...

its exactly the sort of comment i'd expect from someone who just drinks Guiness There are loads of good UK interpretations of Germen/Czech lagers too

I would rather not have a drink than touch stuff like Carlsberg, Carling and Fosters because once you've had good lagers, you realise how terrible they are. Like @COYBL25, I know lads who drink the stuff and come out with phrases like, "That's...

Proper lager, the German stuff, is as good as any beer in the world and I say that as someone who doesn’t really drink lager.

Some lagers (namely the common brands) are terrible to be fair, but a blanket description doesn't do the good ones justice. Some of the German lagers are incredible!

Old Hooky is cracking beer. My dad used to get a barrel in for the Xmas period. I can't remember my first beer, I was allowed it as a kid occasionally. My last beer was some 8% IPA called Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man that I...

Hobbies and gratitude. As we age, stress becomes the silent killer. I never saw myself as "old", but I now realise that I can't work with the same "busy energy" of someone 25 years younger than me - and nor should I. I am far more effective than...

Both of these together really. Having a free day to yourself with no responsibilities to attend to is bliss. Wanna stay in bed all day? sit in front of the TV, play video games, read a book, sit in silence or go for an aimless 3 hour walk to...

Nice to reread a favorite book again. I never used to do this. I appreciate that my 8yr old likes things I used to like, such as toy trains and Scooby Doo. It’s fun playing toy trains with him or watching Scooby Doo as an older adult.

Caring less and less about what other people think of you.
