Beer?

[User169]

View attachment 88833 Not sure if it's allowed on this thread however I recently found a very nice cider mix drink. Introduced to me by a friend and I'm totally hooked. As the warm weather is coming good over ice

Looks alright to me, but there are some elderly purists on this thread ( @threebikesmcginty , @rich p , @theclaud ) who are a bit curmudgeonly and less open-minded than me - just ignore them though!

Oh my!! That's quite a collection.

I miss that place...

You start letting in cider winos, and before you know it those lager boys will poking their snouts in

I have decided to never again drink buy a bottle of beer that can't be arsed to put something by way of a logo on the bottle cap.

What's brought that on? You'll be missing out on loads of good stuff. My general rule is avoiding comedy names like Old Gruttocks Leg Over and shïte like that.

I would only buy "Old Gruttocks..." if it had something like OGLO written on the bottle cap.

I am just adding a bit of frisson into my life; there might be a beer I enjoy, but if the beermaker is too lazy to provide me with a stylish bottle cap then I'll just not buy it and forego the enjoyment - however, if a beermaker has gone to the trouble of sticking some nobber art on their bottle cap then I might just buy a beer I have never tried and find a corker.

I'm a twat.

True, although being irritated by Brewdog's marketing/naming cost me a good few years of appreciation of their product.

To hopefully show what a broad church the beer thread is.......

Following @Delftse Post and @threebikesmcginty 's second-mortgage beer purchases, I popped into Aldi and bought some Hobgoblin (£1.17/bottle) and Hobgoblin Gold (£1.24/bottle).

Acceptable "feet up watching Britain's Got Talent" beers

If I was watching Britains Got Talentless I'd want a glass of hemlock.

I liked this thinking it was a ludicrous proposition, then thought "wait a minute, I'd better use google just to check..."

Dear lord. What a sheltered life I lead.

Next year - man with collection of beer bottle caps with logos entertains Cheryl Cole.
