    Cahling.
    Bud.
    Fosters-probably the worst.

    Lot of competition for the last two spots.

    San Miguel is by far the worst. Followed by Carlsberg, Bud, Nobelaner and any smoke beers cos I just don't like them.

    OK, just when you said about the fillings I presumed it was drinking from cans, I am fairly sensitive with my fillings too, but have never had it from a glass of beer poured from a can.

    Some hits I found

    http://www.buzzle.com/articles/beer-cans-vs-bottles.html


    I think they mean sipping from the can there. The can is "cut" at the outlet so it should only be exposed to that tiny bit of metal when pouring. They could come up with a plastic ring pull system.

    They still do have aluminium kegs in some countries, dunno if they line them like the cans.

    Thanks for that Rubadub. Out of gratitude for your noble research efforts, I'd better try a blind tasting.
    Curiously, I'm sipping a Leffe, from the bottle. I'd swear I'm getting a metallic taste :eek:

    Truely a horrible beer. I had it many years ago & i distinctly remember it having a disgusting sour whiskey sort of aftertaste??

    Absolute piss.

    I think some of the mainstream stuff constantly mentioned here probably doesn't need to be mentioned anymore,so..

    1. Heineken - still has to make the list regardless of the above^
    2. Miller - see Heineken
    3. Lowenbrau
    4. Hoegaarden (a possibly controversial entry)
    Joint 5. Castle/Peroni

    Budweiser
    Dutch Gold
    Staropramen
    Blue Moon
    Coors Light

    Seriously??? :confused:
    If any Czech beer has to be on this list then let it be Krušovické


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,477 ✭✭✭grenache


    Budweiser
    Dutch Gold
    Staropramen
    Blue Moon
    Coors Light
    The others fair enough, but Blue Moon? I think its a lovely beer, with unique flavour.

    Here's my top 5:

    1. Dutch Mould - by some distance

    2. Coors Light
    3. Budweiser
    4. Bud Light
    5. Prazsky

    I forgot to mention Desperados, don't know how I forgot it first time, it really is foul beer.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,662 ✭✭✭RMD


    Jesus, no bad mentions of Bavaria yet, a good run for the cheap drink fans. It's the only drinkable cheap lager IMO, dutch and tuborg both taste like watered down piss.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,274 ✭✭✭Curry Addict


    so we all love Tennants then :D

    O'Kells, a muck beer from the Isle of Man. Probably one of the only Pints I ever refused to finish. Horrific stuff altogether.

    Most beers from Southern Europe, e.g. Peroni - how can people say that this flavourless pisswater is a premium beer?.

    Most beers in Norway. Christ, for a place that charges about 7 quid a pint you'd think they'd manage to put something decent in the glass. One is called Aass. Drop an A, and you're closer.

    Bavaria - actually gives me heartburn.

    Bush - an american beer that has even less flavour than Budweiser. I honestly thought I was drinking carbonated water.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,510 ✭✭✭Max Powers


    1. Coors light
    2. Bud
    3. Fosters
    4. Miller

    Care to explain ? I'll agree that it's not the best beer altogether, but it really has its merits. Cloudy, not-do-subtle but well made spices mix, refreshing and just slightly bitter... One of my faves on sunny summer afternoons !

    Bud
    Michelob Ultra
    Harp Lite
    Miller
    and there was one my mate gave me once, thin it was russian, stuff was horrible.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 774 ✭✭✭daveyeh


    Dutch Gold
    Coors Lite
    Fosters
    Carling
    Tennants


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,851 ✭✭✭Cill Dara Abu


    Bulmers- Cannot stand the taste
    Carling- Like drinking bath-water
    Harp- Tasteless muck
    Miller- Tangy ****
    Stella- Horrible


  • Registered Users Posts: 189 ✭✭LaBaguette

    I sense something wrong here.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,205 ✭✭✭Benny_Cake


    Fosters
    Stella Artois
    Tuborg (at least what we get of it in this country)
    Budweiser (especially draught)
    Any Thai Beer, but especially Chang (there is a good reason why Thai people put ice in their beer)

    Singha beer, a Thai drink is actually delicious. Very nice flavour.

    Fair point - I was mostly thinking of Chang and Leo, I was travelling on a tight budget!! Although I have to say the Singha export does taste nicer than the Thai Singha.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,213 ✭✭✭bobbysands81


    1. Bud/Bud Light... If it was free I wouldn't be able to drink it...
    2. Coors/Coors Light... as above
    3. Fosters.
    4. Sol/Sol Light.
    5. Any Chocolate Stout.
    =5 Peroni.

    Tennants - Definitely the worst tasting beer ever made. Even tried it on tap in scotland, was actually worse than the on tap stuff sold here!!

    Carling - Extremely offensively tasting - just shows you how dumb the English can be as its their best selling beer!

    Budwiser - Horrible, horrible stuff, dont know how people actually choose to purchase this product.

    Carlesberg - how can they market this stuff as probably the best larger in the world, it is absolutely disgusting.

    Dutch Gold - What can I say about this beer??? It pushes tennants hard for worst tasting. I know cash strapped students who refuse to drink it, and thats saying alot!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 948 ✭✭✭Antrim_Man


    Miller
    Carlsberg
    Fosters
    Carlsberg
    Miller :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 845 ✭✭✭yupyup7up


    1 - Hackenberg - Just pure and utter muck
    2 - Budweiser - Gives you the worst hangovers you'll ever have and is just basically piss
    3 - Miller - Extremely weak and bland beer, f*ck all alcohol in it
    4 - Bavaria Special Blonde Beer - its a syrup, not a beer
    5 - Duvel - its just bottles of "bad taste" from your mouth

    no having said that, i'd still drink em all(i hate bud because of the hangovers.)

    BTW stella is a lovely, underrated beer IMO

    Paulaner for the win :D

    HOLD ON! carlsberg is a nice beer! a few beer snobs on here...

    1) Harp-ic


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 948 ✭✭✭Antrim_Man


    1) Harp-ic

    Harp Export 5% is a good beer but hard to get these days.

    Oh dear! This line of comments is definitely the strangest thing I have come across on here for a while.

    Duvel - one of the best beers in the world - is slated, while Carlsberg and Stella are praised?? Don't really know what else to say about that!

    Granted, as with all of these things, it's a matter of taste and will differ from person to person, but this is just bizarre.
