    Jebis Stroh is serious stuff... the bottle looks like a cologne bottle for a reason...

    You can also do circus tricks with it, involving flame.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,989 ✭✭✭✭Giblet

    They sell that trappist beer in the porter house, its good stuff. i drank a shedload of it one night..i forget what happened next :rolleyes:

    If you want real beer there is only one and its called "De Kanon". Its made by Grolsch and you can only get it in the Netherlands. Its the nicest beer I have ever, its kinda of sweet but packs a real punch. I think its around 11.6%, everytime I go to holland usually bring a case back, its terrific.

    Couldn't have said it better myself.

    Bud, sex on the beach, and tequila. You'll rarely find me drinking anything outside of that list.

    I was working one day and there was a Bud promotion on. The winner won with the tiebreaker:

    Budwiser is the King of Beers because, it goes down like water.

    I thought it was quite apt :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,989 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    Yeah I like Bud, but it ain't the king. Just nice n easy.

    My god bud is rotten, leaves you feeling like **** too, if you want something that does down like water you need to drink coors light.

    Also I think you need a shiney nike tracksuit and a burberry cap to get a pint of bud.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,842 ✭✭✭steveland?


    I've been meaning to try Coors Lite but can't shake the feeling it'll turn me into a woman...

    I've kinda gone off Bud now though, can't drink it unless it's in a proper Bud glass...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    I dont drink coors light either but have done before, it goes down like water and it tastes nicer than bud

    I love my guinness and wine haha


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,842 ✭✭✭steveland?


    I've found recently I can't drink beer if it's not in the correct glass. It just doesn't taste right.

    Actually everything tastes right out of the tasty Harley Davidson branded Miller glasses I stole from work :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    lol maybe you should see a shrink for that :)

    No, thats Bulmers :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,842 ✭✭✭steveland?


    I found in work the majority of people I had to ID were Bulmers or Bud drinkers...


    Another completely random bar-trade fact from steve


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    lol i'll add that to my toilet reading facts book

    I do find most skangers drink bud though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,842 ✭✭✭steveland?


    It's true yeh. I used to drink Heineken when I started drinking (too classy for Dutchy ;)... no that's a lie my stomach just can't take it) and I only tried Bud cos they didn't have Heineken on tap in UGC and I got the closest thing to it, Bud.

    I was hooked since then.

    I find recently though that I can only have about 4 pints of Bud though before I kinda just can't drink it anymore. I gag a little just drinking it...

    I've switched to Miller recently which seems to have cured my gagging problem...

    But any time I do find myself gagging it's time for the auld JD and coke


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    If you get onto guinness you will swear by it, I certainly do. It's so much nicer than having a pint of beer/lager. If I was to drink lager it would be heinken and if not heineken it would be carlsberg.

    Love my wine, drinking some now as we speak/post :)

    I drink Guinness the odd time... I always just end up full though as opposed to drunk.

    The last time I got drunk on Guinness was after work one day we had a lock in, just me another guy and the manager. Got out about 7am and walked home in the blinding sun...

    Next day all I could taste was the Guinness...

    I only really drink Guinness if a few of my mates are drinking it or if I see a pint and it looks tasty....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    You only drink it if you see a few of your mates drinking? peer pressure! :)

    Alot of people say that they feel full after it this isnt the case with me, I could go out and have 12-15 pints of it on the binge and feel ok apart from being totally pissed haha.

    Must admit the next morning the guinness taste is really bad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,842 ✭✭✭steveland?


    I can drink Guinness till the cows come home (or i take them home..... :eek:) and still not get drunk.

    The main reason I wait till someone else is drinking it is so I'm sure it'll be fresh. I've seen and served a few bad pints in my time and I wouldn't get a pint if other people were coming back with bubbly overflowing pints with huge heads... I know sometimes there's nothing you can do but meh...

    Guinness tastes wonderful but it has to be pulled right by someone who gives a cr@p about what he's serving. Plus you really have to know if the place has good pints.

    I never really understood why some places have better pints than others but one of the auld lads in the bar in work told me one that it depends on how far the cold room is from the taps, which I suppose is logical cos it means less crud in the lines...

    My fave is Staropramen. Although a bit pricey, I made sure I got in a few half litre bottles for Crimbo. After that I tend to go for Heino. Don't really mind Bud but prefer the original Budvar.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,756 ✭✭✭I am MAN


    Yep two nice beers that I would drink now and again, I worked in Dunnes offlicense part-time last year and we got tons of Staro on offer and i bought two cases, was like 24 euro for 24 bottles, lovely stuff.

    Reminds me of a joke:

    The leaders of the big beer companies meet for a drink. The president of Budweiser orders a Bud, the CEO of Miller gets a Miller, the head of Coors orders a Coors, and so on.

    Then the waitress asked Arthur Guinness what he wanted to drink, and much to everybody's amazement, Mr. Guinness ordered a Coke!

    "Why didn't you order a Guinness?" everyone asks.

    Guinness replies, "Naah, if you guys aren't having beer, then neither will I..."

    They're called 'urinals'


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,989 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    I'd prefer a Bud over a Heineken. Heineken tastes rotten, like it's gone off or something. I dunno how people can stand it really.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,989 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    I got given alot of trappist beer tonight, I'm REALLY happy. Quality ale.

    Excellent stuff man!

    The belgians really know how to make great beer.

    Got a load myself the other night.

    Big 75cl bottles of:

    Chimay Grande Reserve
    Leffe
    La Chouffe

    And then 33cl bottles of:

    2 x Chimay Trippel
    2 x Het Kapitel
    Hoegaarden

    Suffice to say I was VERY drunk indeed, but woke up yesterday without any hangover at all! Thank god for the purity law in Belgium, no chemical crap allowed in the beer there! All the chemicals, that's why Budweiser and other filthy American beers makes you feel like absolute ****.

    And heiniken is just as bad, it's ****ing ****.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,989 ✭✭✭✭Giblet


    Ah, just polished off a bottle there. It was like having another Christmas dinner. Very nice.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,130 ✭✭✭✭Karl Hungus


    Ever tried La Chouffe? I only tried it for my first time there the other night, and it was absolutely gorgeous! Tasted more like a fine champagne than beer really.

    I live a couple minutes away from the Porterhouse North, perhaps I should try this Trappist stuff
