@Gizz,

Well I wish you a speedy recovery.

As for beer, I'm very fond of "real" ales.  I find lager to be full of chemicals and lacking in taste - although I am partial to a pint on a warm summer afternoon.

Though my all time favourate was a brew my Grandmother made up about 5 years ago as a one off, utterly evil stuff (It got you from the legs up, you head being the last to be hit) and a great taste :-)


Yeah, I find some Belgian beers do that.  You drink a pint and feel fine but the legs become a little rubbery.  Minutes later it's like being bludgeoned on the back of the head.

:pint:

I do love real ales and continental beers (particularly Belgian).  

However, I cannot understand the attraction with Stella Artois, it tastes of chemicals and each and every time I've been on a night out and something wrong has ocurred, Stella was involved at some point.  

Won't touch the stuff.

Here's my current faves (can't be arsed to see if I've posted in this thread before):

1) Summer Lightning - light coloured, hoppy ale that tastes delicious and leaves you wanting more.  
2) Hoegaarden - Wheat beer, crisp and slightly bitter/sweet in taste but deceptively strong.
3) Archers - No, not the spirit!  Slightly dark beer with a gorgeous aftertaste.
4) Co-op organic beer - The current PMC fave despite it's humble label.

Yeah, I recall (well, to be exact it's more of a dim recollection) a similar occurrence during a stag weekend in Berlin in March '03.

Newky Brown...  Brings back many memories (quite hazy) of my student days.  I keep meaning to try some but am slightly bothered by the thought that the flavour might not live up to the rose specs of nostalgia.

Blob, do you have a particularly expensive taste in wine (or beer for that matter)?  Wine has got to be cheaper per unit than beer.
