May 30, 201412 yr So Adnams Spindrift and Twickenham Fine Ales were not on the list. Excellent. I will start drinking more of those then Life is hard sometimes.

May 30, 201412 yr This article is psuedoscience/psuedomedical junk I'm afraid. In actual science, evidence is provided to back up claims - people can't just declare their claims to be self-evident. (ie all the anti-GMO stuff here) Ditto! JohnCommercial ASEL MEL Instrument"I'd rather have a skill I do not need, then need a skill I do not have"
May 30, 201412 yr I don't always drink beer, but when I do... craft beers for me, thanks. But that has nothing to do with these kinds of "oohh, scarey" pseudo-science articles. Scott
May 30, 201412 yr The Brits will understand (and maybe some other Eurozone types); thank god the "wife beater" was not on the list. Indeed. Filthy slop. McBeer tastes as bad as McFood and I avoid it like the plague. This has become a lot easier in Poland in the last few years with the explosion of the micro-brew beer market. After being a country of mostly awful Eurofizz, we've now matured into a serious real beer player. I have to work hard to keep the beer/flightsim belly down :-) The US craft beer industry is on fire right now. Even in Florida some reputable names are popping up, one being Funky Buddha Brewery right down the road from my house. Good stuff. True. Last time I was in the States a few years ago, I had no idea beer existed in the US. Thought it was just McMiller and that imitation Budweiser dish water. I was seriously impressed with the micro brew stuff I tried. I've never been so glad to be proved wrong in my life before. Gavin Barbara Over 10 years here and AVSIM is still my favourite FS site :-)
May 30, 201412 yr Indeed. Filthy slop. I don't think you interpreted my attempt at humor correctly... Where I stayed over the years, The White Hart, Hampton Wick, Stella, the Belgium beer, was referred to as the "Wife Beater" because of its alcohol content. When I go to my favorite watering hole here, I have draft Stella.
May 30, 201412 yr The Brits will understand (and maybe some other Eurozone types); thank god the "wife beater" was not on the list. stella artois? lol! yes, it really deserves that title!! very strong lager. in england they call the small size tin "wife beater" and the large sized tin "riot size" one of the reasons i chose to work in england though was for the newcastle brown ale. its the only beer i drink in one sense all booze is bad for us, so a league table is a bit pointless. none of it is good for us, but life is about moderation

May 30, 201412 yr I am very happy with the proliferation of craft beers, and bars that connect their taps to kegs of them. I've always been bothered when I ask "What's on tap?" and I get the decades-old recitation of "Bud, Bud Light, Coors, Coors Light, Miller, MIller Lite...." Why? Why pay $5 for a glass of that when it's about 70 cents a can in your refrigerator? Putting it on tap does little for it. Stone Breweries' Arrogant B*astard, on the other hand, is worth searching out. Although it is still pretty good out of the bottle, on tap it's great. Some beers, in particular Shipyard which is mentioned above, does not translate well to the bottle, but I often go for it on tap.

May 30, 201412 yr Moderator I remember in High School (remember, this was in the early 80's... 'hey, can you score a six pack for me?') the 'popular' barley pop in our group was Carlsberg Elephant. I could drink four (4) of them (12 oz. bottle) and have a pretty good buzz going. Never drank an entire sixer of the 'ol Pachyderm, but I did drink five of them once. Left the auto at the party, and proceeded to walk home without the need for Lighting apparatus! Of course, the Porcelain God and I had some words later on in the early AM... As I said earlier, I will stick with my favorite whiskey (with some moderation, of course)... Stranahans Colorado Whiskey. Smooth going down, and no ill effects afterwards! B)
May 30, 201412 yr Stranahans Colorado Whiskey. Despite looking at the prominent "Stranahans" sign at Coors Field through many Colorado Rockies games, I still haven't tried it. Maybe I should, though I'm a Macallan single malt guy when it comes to Whisky (without an e in the case of good single malts). Scott
May 30, 201412 yr Would never drink those from that list, I'm mainly a Stella Artois drinker. Some Steamwhistle and Sleemans as well, not sure how good those 2 are.
May 30, 201412 yr I don't think you interpreted my attempt at humor correctly... Where I stayed over the years, The White Hart, Hampton Wick, Stella, the Belgium beer, was referred to as the "Wife Beater" because of its alcohol content. When I go to my favorite watering hole here, I have draft Stella. Indeed not.
