    Stonehouse/Guinness/Beamish. In that order.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 76 ✭✭Mehh


    Guinness in a good dingy Dublin pub is hard to beat. Drink Heineken otherwise.

    I think Krusovice is the best of the Czech beers and I drink a fair bit of Bavaria, it may be cheap but it tastes just like Heineken.

    It's not bad for an italian beer but I couldn't imagine not drinking any other beer :D

    Red label Peroni or Nastro Azzuro? Nastro isn't bad, but I drank loads of Peroni in Italy a couple of years ago. Very tasty beer that.


  • Moderators Posts: 24,367 ✭✭✭✭ChewChew


    well I have 2 six packs sitting in my fridge. chilling.

    Heineken and coors light.

    I usually go for coors when in the pub, purely for taste.

    So what should I do tonight?? Coors or heineken??

    Well if you don't like the taste of beer you should drink something else instead of wasting your money on Coors. :p

    I was in California last summer,used to drink Natural Ice..you get about 12 cans for 5 dollors..5.9%..it was unbelievable!!!


    In the club Heineken


    Offy...whatevers on offer...Bottles of Bav are good!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23 PmcG01


    The New Zealand dark ales are superb. Real flavoursome beers and you get some good micro brewery brands that are worth trying.

    Used to be Guinness & Heineken man but once I got into the darker ales can't go near Heineken anymore. Although Nastro Azzuro does deserve a mention.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    I have progressed from cheap cider (Druid's etc) when I was a teen, onto Bulmers when I started to get some money (late teens), onto Dutch Gold or Tuborg ((when I realised cider was p!ss, but no longer had money) and then onto Miller (when I got money again).

    So that's the one for me. But, in all honesty, I'll drink any beer that's put in front of me (so long as it's not Bud).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭Stky10


    DUTCH GOLD IS LIKE JENNA JAMESON'S SNATCH JUICE.

    yummmmmmmmie

    Interesting comparison considering she's been the worlds biggest cum-bucket for the past 10 years. Whatever floats your boat I suppose.

    Guinness is good during winter, but I'd also like most German & Belgian beers like Erdinger, Becks, Duvel, Leffe etc. I've recently developed a taste for Kopperberg as well for the summer months. I wouldn't touch Heineken/Carlsberg. And to whoever mentioned Harp, they need their taste buds ripped out.

    I enjoy a dark ale, are there any New Zealand dark ales available in Ireland?

    None that I can find, unfortunately.

    Although.

    Sam Adams Black Lager is a damn fine substitute imo. I found it in Molloy's offo.

    A-ha. Brotherette Watna will be sending me some supplies as soon as she's settled in NZ.

    Some of the beautiful Monteith's Black will be winging it's way to my place. \o/

    Would have to be Corona with lime.. but a few Duvel's from the Porterhouse can be quite refreshing!

    For everyday drinking, Guinness. Except in hotels where it's usually sh1te.


  • Posts: 8,016 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Overall it would be Erdinger. BUT it really does depend what mood im in. If im going for one or two its Guinness & if its out in a beer garden/BBQ etc its Pint bottles of Bulmers.

    I couldn't possibly choose one above all others. However, this weekend I was BBQing it up, and I'd the following:

    - Carlsberg
    - Hoegaarden
    - Erdinger
    - Miller
    - Tesco's Bier D'Or
    - Cobra

    Carlsberg is my regular (when I'm not drinknig Guinness, which is most of the time now) so I'm used to it and it shant be compared, but of the rest I probably enjoyed my Sunday morning Erdinger the most. Cobra is quality, those little Bier D'Or bottles are surprisingly decent and Hoegaarden is tasty, if a bit too challenging to drink all the time. Miller is fairly unremarkable.

  • Registered Users Posts: 215 ✭✭daniel91

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,567 ✭✭✭Martyr


    bottles of kristalweizen : Schneider weiss, Erdinger, Franziskaner, paulaner

    Guinness stout, chimay..

    the german beers might cost more but i'd rather pay 2.50 for a pint bottle of good beer than pay 4.50 for some cold water down pish at the pub.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 269 ✭✭m3llowship


    Franziskaner is right up there. Erdinger too and Paulauner. Spaten isnt too fa behind.

    I have a serious love for Sam Adams Boston Lager and their SUmmer Ale as well. Hooked, so I am!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,181 ✭✭✭Iang87


    ok this needs to be broken down.


    Warm summers day - Pint bottle of Bulmers
    warm summers evening - Draught Bulmers
    House Party - Bottles of Miller/Bavaria/Bud/Vodka
    Casual evening out - Draught Miller
    Not so casual night out - Draught Miller/Vodka
    Holidays in the sun - Blue Wicked/any girly conconction
    Everything else - Extra cold Draught Bud
