Topcat Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 After my recent holiday to Belgium i'm on a mission over the next year to try a whole load of new beers/ales What's everyone's preference? I usually prefer my largers, but don't mind the occasional ale, Blue Monkey Brewery (Nottingham) always seem to agree with me. And I found A brilliant beer in belgium. Duvel 8.5% but smooth taste, shame it wasn't cheaper over there. 4 euros for a stumpy bottle Quote
Topcat Posted August 11, 2012 Author Posted August 11, 2012 I do like Guiness, but after 3 or 4 they lay heavy on my stomach. Been to the shops earlier and bought several different varieties. First up Wells Banana bread beer. Halfway through the bottle and it's bloody lovely, but wouldn't want more than a couple i can tell. Quote
Topcat Posted August 11, 2012 Author Posted August 11, 2012 Probably regarding as weird by most but i actually prefer Guiness and black. Quote
glrnet Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 We all already knew that, are you at the dogs!!? ALL DRINKS!!!! Quote

Topcat Posted August 11, 2012 Author Posted August 11, 2012 Mulled wine at christmas goes down a treat! not sure about by the pint though Quote
Wasso Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Yup at the dogs having a few Carling!!! Shattered from today been up since 7am organising driving just shy of 100 miles of twisties. Missing the remaining south east crew at the big meet! Quote
mbcx4jrh Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Another vote for Bombay Sapphire... but also home made Mojito's, made with chocolate mint from the garden - it's the cat **** that gives it the edge.. On a more beer type night then Fursty Ferret is my prefered ale.. Of course, anything is better than nothing, Quote
chettle Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Im not really a drinker anymore, but always seem to have a bottle of Grey Goose about and Passoa. An occasional Monkey Shoulder always goes down well Quote
Topcat Posted August 11, 2012 Author Posted August 11, 2012 Never had Bombay sapphire, is it that different to other gins? I'm quite partial to a gin and tonic. Quote
taffyjason Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 it has much more flavour, if you look at a bottle in the shops, you'll see the spices it has added, makes a Gin a party Quote
mbcx4jrh Posted August 11, 2012 Posted August 11, 2012 Bombay Sapphire with Indian Tonic Water. Slice of lime. Couple of ice cubes. Repeat until lathered... Quote
