A thread about beer

[KERRSURF]

Post one beer that you really love (if you really love Bud or Carling above all others then this thread will hold little interest for you probably)

I'm torn between a few but decided on Williams Brothers FRAOCH heather ale.

It's a 4000 year old recipe and damn it's good!

I like cold fizzy lager. And Spitfire.

This spitfire?


Like that too, had one or 6 on holiday recently.

Gonna post this one too, it's too good to miss out.


Roisin - The tayberry is a cross between a raspberry and a blackberry, originally grown in the Tay valley region of Scotland.

Roisin (pronounced Rosheen) tastes of all the good things a micro-brewed beer should (malt & hops) but with a distinct, delicate fruit aroma. Oh, and its pink!! It is best enjoyed chilled, but not freezing cold, otherwise we are wasting time and resources making it so good and flavoursome!

Better on tap in the lakes though...

I've tried that Wishbone, very nice on draught.

I can't drink that beer without thinking of the lake district. Others I like are London Pride and Old Peculier, but they're not particularly rare so not worth posting pics.

Sorry to disappoint but in the summer I generally drink lager - Real beer for the other 3 seasons..

Yep, that one. The Pilot in Berwick had it on tap the last time I was down at my mum's caravan, was good...

[Apache]

One is very difficult, so here's one of our local favorites...



St Georges Dragons Blood is an excellent 'porterish' beer made a couple of miles down the road too. Too low volume to have a pic on t'internet though.

And one from my home city...

I'm not interested in gold medals, just folks ideas of good beer, whats yours Goran.

Oh aye, you like a 'lady' drink.


That Cains Raisin beer looks to be worth a try!

Yes mate I have had a go at maybe half a dozen from them, I like beers at 4% or less some of theirs while lovely are a little strong.

We have a very blonde beer of theirs on at the min and it's real tasty however, it comes in at 6.2% so you need to be careful.
