BEER

[FishHook004]

then we would have something to read about that is more intriguing than you conversations with pam

[kerosene]

Okay then.

Since we were talking about Leinenkugels yesterday, I bought the Honey Weiss last night. I'll start with that one later today.

You don't like my conversations with Pam? Come on now. I was bored!

The aussies here should agree with me that Australia has been going through this micro-brewery, boutique beer phase the last few years where beer has become less of a tradesmens hard earned thirst drink and become one of those fine things to enjoy and talk about and try different types like red wine for example.

After that boring paragraph I've put myself to sleep and can't think of anything worth mentioning.

Oh Little Creatures Bright Ale, Pale Ale and Golden Ale is a winner and its brewed here in Perth.

Feral White
Mash Golden
Fat Yak

All nice beers but what I have in my fridge now is Cooper's Clear, which is kinda average but I keep finding myself buying it..

[plthijinx]

Miller Lite

Bud Light

Or whatever else ya got layin' around.

[Pico and ME]

Dos Exxix when I want something fuller tasting and Blue Moon when I want something more refreshing.

[Pico and ME]

HA! I found this when I googled my use of 'fuller tasting' cuz It didnt look right to me.

Well kerosene... I guess we both cope with boredom in different ways, I post threads about beer while you engage in conversation with Pam lol... to each his own huh?

Not sure you could exactly call it conversation. I was just messing around.

I had no beer at the time, but I got some later, so I didn't have to talk about John from Denver and my snow house.

This stuff was pretty good. Kind of sweet and, yet seemed very flavorful. I can't tell you what those flavors were, but they went down well.

Ha! You mean the poor foreign broken English girl who is somehow familiar with Natty Light and John from Denver?

Dude, like Natty Light is the drink of choice of some of my younger friends: they're professionals, veterans, gorgeous, and think that Natty Light is the beer of all beers.

Natural Light, to those not in the know. One of the cheapest.

(I just got an email from one of them: may drink some with them later.)

[FishHook004]

I love them nattys that's what I drink when I'm broke lol

In college we drank Old Milwaukee Light. Old Mud, we called it. We always said "it just doesn't get any better than this." At 4 bucks a case or whatever, it surely didn't!

In HS: Little Kings or Genny Cream Ales. The tiny bottles were cute.

[Pico and ME]

Were Little Kings in high school just a midwestern sort of thing? I loved them too.

I'll drink Bud if someone else is buying and that's ALL they are buying.
But it tastes like gnat's piss.

Excepting Budweiser Budvar, naturally.

My favourite beer has to be Fruli Strawberry Beer.
And I'm not one for flavoured drinks (tart fuel), but this is a white beer from Belgium, laced with strawberry juice.
It's deceptively strong, in that you feel like you're knocking back pop... then after a couple of pints it's your turn to get a round in. It's a different story when you stand up Trouble is, it tastes too good to drink slowly.

Hoegaarden is very nice - another Belgian white beer this time without flavouring.
It's quite citrussy.

Otherwise, in the local pubs & off-licences without a specialist selection, I'd go for Stella or Staropramen. Kronenburg at a push.
