Mate; it's time you changed your drinking habits. Have you tried good Oz ales, like Fosters, VB, Coopers Pale Ale and about 100 other good beers ? They will put hair on yer chest and make a visit to any BBQ worth while. Saw a Pommy (forgotten what you call that mob from across that ditch you call the Atlantic) once dring from a can of beer with a straw ! That's about as lewd as you can get I reckon and says something about British Breeding ... DN
Is a Dog Piss Lager you turd.
It's okay in a pinch.
Piss weak in my experience.
Now that is just damned wrong! I hope you beat some sense into the fool.
(life sucks when the shed is 8' X 8' and already occupied by more boxes than got dropped on Omaha beach)

I do it just to piss off the ...welll you know!
The good Fosters in the UK is brewed in Scotland! You can really taste the difference.
As Keith said that's just larger and it's the 'ol gnats piss. Try Hook Norton beers, Jennings' brands, even Boddington's better than that "F" word

Not to mention they Brew it in N.A. for consumption in that market...not a bad idea imo. At least it's fresh and not beat to crap by a boat trip. I also rather like Tsing Tao. Pretty good Chinese lager.
You're a brave man...
...actually admitting to like lager...

Malcolm, bier is bier! I'm also fond of Pilsen but wish more americans realized that they are serving it TOO warm!
You make my point...
Beer should be at room temperature to be enjoyed to the full.
When it's chilled to the temperature that many pubs serve it, it becomes tasteless...
...that is probably WHY they serve it so COLD...
...if it COULD be tasted I reckon sales would slump.

Ahh, but some beer SHOULD be served cold. Pilsens especially! They are best served at or around 38-42F.
LOL...you've obviously had Buttwiper. I mean Budweiser, no really that's what I meant to say.
No doubt. Cool not cold is best imo...how I prep my pilsner is almost like some arcane ritual from the days of Alchemy.
All dirty water to me.
Come on you jokers, stop acting like Sheila's and drink a mans drink AND cold.
The main reason we like our beer cold is because of necessity. It happens to be hot most of the year (except in Melbourne and Tasmania) and a can of beer would boil unless it was cold. Nothing like drinking a cold beer when the sun is up and burning the cattle's bums and lizards are drinking all day.
I've lived in your neck of the woods and the only thing I could drink was Scotch - beer warm and useless I reckon. Tried that Bud stuff once and asked the barman what sort of a joint he was running! Anyway, each to his/her own...

The great mystery of Bud is how they get the cat to squat over the bottle.
Many years ago we fought off the Queens soldiers(also Queens in their little Red uniforms?). They beat their drums to announce that they were attacking us and ready to be shot. They wore little Red Military uniforms so we did not have to fear miss shooting them with our guns and we defeated them swiftly and soundly. Tony Blair? I don't think we need another idiot. In 15 or so years you will probably address us as "The Hispanic States of America". Do I really care who shot Kennedy?
And any beer that requires a lime and salt to kill the flavor must ber REAL GOOD stuff. (load of sarcasm)
No one has yet mentioned a "real" beer.
There are many small breweries who "do their own thing" and are often only available through a local pub - often their own premises.
I agree that some Scottish beers are great e.g. "Fraoch" and "Kelpie" and always have a few bottles around, BUT to serve them chilled - NEVER!
Malcolm
Is that why that part of NY where many British troops were shot and killed is called Queens, NY?
