As I have spent the last few weeks getting myself in tip top shape ( physically) I have refrained my self from any Alchohol including my only love beer! With two weeks to go before the big one ,over the weekend I decided that self depevation was a sin and on easter sunday had a few beers.... well quite a few really, and as anyone who is in the no, when you dont drink for a while your capacity to absorb copiace amounts of Alchohol dimishes resulting in.YOU getting rather P****D to quickly!
Never being one to miss an opertunity, and the missus giving me the (green light) nuptals where definatly on the horizon, so on getting home and down to the nitty gritty, I had a little problem. This has happened before, several times but I have narrowed it down to one thing "Kronenberg", it makes me into a raving stallion!
I could have a picture of Jolene blalock, and Tricia helfer in my mind and me being the meat in the lesbien sandwich and I still wouldnt consumate our evening out. Generally ( on a normal day) like most men there is a time scale for these sort of things were both parties are satisfied, but when I drink this particular beer, I can on for hours! Does this happen to anyone else?
Other beers also have an effect on me, Grolsh gives me the calcutta two step. stella makes me chunder, carling ,well....its just rank, fosters leaves a taste of metal in my mouth. I did go on the wine for a bit but kept falling a sleep, could it be an age thing?or should I use myself as a guiny pig and approach the brewers about this? * free beer*

The new Artois - Peetermans is my dream beer.
All the taste of Stella but doesn't have that loopy chemical that turns you into a raging psychopath after 6/7/12 (delete as appropriate) pints!

Red Stripe has a similar effect in terms of staying power........

Real ale is where it's at, folks. Had a cracking couple of pints of Adnams Broadside on Monday... sheer heaven.

If it's lager you're after, however, I've still not found a better one than Kirin Ichiban... it really does show the mass-produced boys how proper lager should be made.

;)

If you buy bottled broadside it is 6.2% abv.

Remember more is more.
 
6.2%? Crikey! The Broadside on draught in the pub on Monday was only 4.7%, but I could already feel that after a couple of pints.

Still, the really punchy stuff is the India Pale Ale brewed by Meantime, and for sale on draught in the Greenwich Union, my erstwhile local (and somewhere I still head back to). That weighs in at a meaty 7.5%... a couple of pints of that and I'm reeling!

:p

Spot on there Matt.
If it's an ale, it always has to be Broadside.
That's about the advantage of having parents who live in Adnams country, a decent pint of Broadside is never far away.
In fact, I think the next time I am down I will definitely have to go to Southwold for the day for a Broadside frenzy!

Was that the place we went to before the Gills game last season? Cracking pub that was :)
 
yeah we probably are but not everywhere does it and so it's a nice treat, really refreshing and easy to drink but has a good taste even after 8 of them!
 
Yes indeed. A major consolation for next season, if we do get relegated, is that we can have two trips there - Millwall & Gills.

:D
I thought you'd prefer to 'get stuck in' at a local Millwall boozer Matthew?
 
I think the majority are missing the point of this thread. Its not what beer you like, its what each beer does to you.

Carling gives me the squirts
Stella makes me lose my memory
Davys Old Wallop makes me lose my legs
Kronenberg makes me lose my inhibitions
 
no i mentioned coors as it gets me going!... stella definitely gives me the rage, carling gets me good ****ed but a bit sleepy. don't drink fosters or carlsberg. cider gives me weird dreams and kronenberg gets me battered pretty quickly. for a session i tend to drink san miguel, coors or stella and if im out with the bird then it is definitely coors or san miguel as it increases my performance!
