    How many have you tried, one?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    I was a cider head until recently. Have since moved to Heineken as its the only beer I can stand but I'm told by others that it's muck!

    Ha ha ha ha. Troll fail!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,568 ✭✭✭candy-gal1


    Cobra! :)

    Corona, with the lime!

    Innis and gunn beer with rum!

    And dont know if it counts as a beer, or half thereof, but Snakebite :D

    It's a toss up between:

    Thornbridge Jaipur
    Rogue Hazelnut Brown
    Fyne Ales Jarl
    Nogne O Porter
    Hitachino Nest Amber Ale

    Generally depends if I'm in the mood for something hoppy or something malty. Also like Fuller's London Porter ;)

    I quite like Budweiser and Coors Light. I normally mix them with iced water.

    I got hammered one night many many years ago drinking a pint of that through a straw. I robbed it of a random German guy :pac:

    Real men drink poiteen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Usally drink Guinness, although occasionally drink Tiger, Peroni, or Krononberg 1664. Although one of the nicest I had was a local ale somewhere in the SW of England, both the name and place escape me now, and a fruity 6 odd % beer brewed by trappest monks.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,249 ✭✭✭MaroonAndGreen


    Tuborg.

    Very nice and can be got for €3 a pint too.

    Yeah, itll do that alright :D


    Ah Snakebite through a straw, that takes me back!! :)
    Actually no I still do that now, just very much less of it though, both nights out and Snakebites!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,561 ✭✭✭Duff


    Paulaner, Heineken and Blue Moon are delish.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,059 ✭✭✭WilyCoyote


    Cobra or Kingfisher. Both before and after a nice curry.

    yeah the brew dock across from connolly station have it on draft - so does the black sheep on caple street. From the off-license the Pale Ale variety and the torpedo (coming in at 8%) are pretty good too.

    Takes me back too. Lethal. I never remembered much from those nights.

    Beer seems to be the topic where boards has its most jarring difference with the normal public. If you asked everyone on the street the beer they most often drink, at least 90% would say Guinness, Heineken, Smithwicks, Corona etc.

    On boards though, a sizable minority, if not a slight majority will name craft/microbrewery type drinks. Not saying either is better than the other, just that its interesting to see how craft beers seem overrepresented on boards.

    Porterhouse should have it too.
    O'Hara's red and stout and trouble brewing sabotage and dark art are a couple of my favourites at the moment.

    I remember being in the States years ago drinking cans of something called Moose Drool.

    Cant remember what it was like, I was in such a states.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,671 ✭✭✭BraziliaNZ


    I love cans of Lech. On draught it's Guinness. Although you can't get as good as Dublin here it's not bad in some places.

    Yeah but just because you drink those beers out of lack of choice in most (almost all) pubs (Heineken, Smithwicks etc.), doesn't mean they're your faves.


    Normally do =/= what you actually WANT to do.

    If I'm out I'll tend to go to pubs that I know have a decent selection of beers. If I'm in a pub with a limited selection I'll drink Smithwicks or Guinness. At home I'll always go for a nicer craft beer with 1or2 I've never tried before. But if asked the question "what's your favourite beer" I'll give an honest answer and am fully aware I'll sound like a hipster prick...

    Ah shure, they're just trying to 'outsophisticate' each other & show how cosmopolitan they all are.

    Haven't had a Smithwicks in a while. Might be time to get back to the auld Red Diesel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,673 ✭✭✭✭senordingdong


    Anything but Budweiser.


  • Posts: 24,714 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Guinness in the pub, Bavaria in the house.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,671 ✭✭✭BraziliaNZ


    I love Zywiec aswell. Polish beers are great. There's like 1000s of these ale things here in England but they're just not my bag really. The only ones I like are the chavvy ones like Tetleys and John Smiths. You get hipsters coming in asking what the guest ales are etc... and can they have a sample. Urgh. It all tastes the same. Like urine that has been soda streamed and then let go flat again!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 846 ✭✭✭kelbal


    Young's Double Chocolate Stout.

    Bought one of these last week. Absolutely fantastic. Don't be put off by the name, the chocolate is very subtle - gorgeous beer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,706 ✭✭✭fonecrusher1


    I loves drinkin a few Dutch gold before headin down the bookies. Then over to da chipper and more gold later back in mams at my place.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 625 ✭✭✭roadsmart


    'Stormy Port' and 'Buried At Sea' stouts from Galway Bay brewery,
    Double Stout from Sheperd & Neames.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,972 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    Chimay Blue or Delirium Nocturnum if I'm buying in a good offie.

    Beamish or Guinness in most pubs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,039 ✭✭✭✭Geuze


    I like:

    Guinness Extra Stout
    Guinness Foreign Extra Stout

    O'Hara's Leann Follain stout

    and I love geuze.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,899 ✭✭✭✭BBDBB


    surely the point is NOT to have a favourite, that way you can keep trying lots of different ones to try and find one ;)




    still looking
