I bought some Fosters just because it was on offer.

BlackSpur

Good man! Whereabouts?

nicklouse

nothing wrong with some Lager occasionally. But fosters!

your punishment is 3 pints of Ale to be taken orally on Friday.

missmarple

Magners is the way forward, none of that naff rubbish.

supersonic

£2.99 for four at costcutter. Which for a 4 pack nowadays is quite xheap.

Carling £4.50 the robbing gets!

I hope you are washing your mouth out with Greene King IPA.

MrChrisP

Get yersel down to Lidl. Grafenwalder is 50p a can and it's better than Fosters by a long way. They also have some pretty good deals on the ales as well.

Nothing wrong with Redstripe, thats a cracking lager?!

And nothing really wrong with fosters, my favourite chilled larger is heineken, not for strength, for taste, or coors lite

Andy

Coors light +1

Nope, but I like ice-cold lager, can't drink anything (apart from red wine) that's room temperature...

Most USA lagers I have had have not been good - Budweiser, Coors, Miller and some others.

Agreed, Coors being the only one I really like.

I do like
Stella Artois
Heineken
Carlsberg
Oranjeboom (probably my favourite draft)
Peroni when served ICE cold

But I do like Guiness Extra Cold too

My favourite lagers are the ones the Commercial does in Chap (do visit if you find yourself in this part of the world!). They import in a lot of continental lagers, this being my favourite:

Veltins is fair.

Might have to take you up on that.

GHill

Haven't had a good lager for a long time, micro brew with lots of hops is king round here (except with the college kids).

Coors I used to drink that by the case when i was young and it cost 16/18 per case for 24 bottles .. Budweiser , I liked Bud Ice better though

Do you remember Molson special dry I thought was exceptional beverage and variety Canadian Molson Special Dry ...

Innes and Gunn do a exceptional Beer that's finished in Whisky Casks .. Case is expensive costing £30

Gazlar

Heinekken or Amstel for me as my picks, the dutch know how to make lager properly

VWsurfbum

I like most lager to be fair, as long as its more than 4%?

the one i always love if you can get it is "Desperado's" Flavoured with tequila, has a very distinctive taste which is strangely adictive?

tlw1

As long as its cold................

But soft spot for Leffe Blonde

But not if you go over the dam to enjoy a glass or two of them, lol

Another top Dutch beer tip, try the Brouwerij t'Ij in Amsterdam, a little brewery in a windmill on the east side of town not far from the zoo,they have a lovely menu of beers and its great fun trying every one of them, but get there early as it gets busy

Magners is for people too gay to drink real cider.

What is REAL Cider then? Strongbow? Tastes like p*ss, and thats on a good day. Bulmers also exhibits the same taste.

stevet1992

Rattler beats all cider ... hands down ... no back chat :twisted:

Or should i say .. Cyder

MacAndCheese

I think he means the type of cider that brewed by incestuous cousins in cornwall, in a shed. Its so cloudy it could be mistaken for milk shake and when you sniff it you go blind. That's my kind of cider.

Beck Vier is my current fave lager, but you beat a good pint of smiths smooth or guiness

Cant stand Stella, Bud anbd the likes
