Hangovers... cursed be the day that the lord saw fit to set those crule, mercyless creatures on the human race.

Cheap beer kills me! I know that may sound stupid but i have really noticed the difference. A brewer friend of mine explained that most cheap beer (in the states anyway, most beer is p*** here!) use corn malt instead of wheat as it is cheaper to buy in bulk. The sugar is harder to digest and so if you have a lot of it you end up with a nasty headache.

So i have been sticking to ales and dark beers since and things have gotten better!

I also see ads on the tv all the time for 'chasers' a formula that you drink before going out on the town... think it is a crock myself though!

Drink a pint of water for every few beers you have.
I do that and feel nothing in the morning apart from the tiredness..

Last week I only had 4 cans and a few bottles of the urine labelled as Stella Artois, and I was dying the next day. Dying. Then the week before for my birthday I was mixing beer & vodka, downing all sorts and drinking way too much generally and I was fine the next day. Beggars belief tbh

Has anyone tried those hangover defence pills?

I tried those pills last night for the first time. Didn't think of them until about 2am so I emptied the capsules into a glass of water and drank that. Wasn't hung over today but that might be something to do with getting out of bed at 4pm. And to be sure they work, you'd have to try them consistantly for a good few nights out. I think they're expensive too (got mine free!)

Those "pills" cost around 3e.
2 in a pack, you drink them within an hour of your first drink.
They are full of vitamins which help you for the morning..

Of course you cant go and get smashed thinking these will keep a lock on pandoras box..

The amount of **** that goes into our beer over here is crazy. The buds, heinekens and Carlsbergs that we buy here are not the same as the buds, heinekens and Carlsbergs bought there

I think you've just shown us all that its all in your head.
Yes German beer cannot contain any additives but that doesn't mean you can't import beer with additives etc.
Since all those beers you listed aren't German then I think you've shown us all that the answer of additives equals hangover is in fact not true.

Nonsense man! Myself and some drinking acquantances once tried this experiment and only drank overpriced German pilsners, and we were still dying the next day. You're not drinking enough! :v:

Goodshape · 28-11-2005 05:40AM

Were you in Germany at the time? The exported stuff wouldn't be the same.

Can't speak for Germany anyway, but Czech beer doesn't give you much of a hangover (and certinitly isn't 'over priced').. it's also fairly free of preservitives.

NO! i know these arent german beers but these beers are also made in germany. All of the beers above that i drank were produced in germany. the way budweiser is produced in Ireland, its not an Irish beer is it. They arent german beers but they are produced there

"I think you've just shown us all " that you jump to conclusions

Also, i was in Hamburg at the weekend again, i just came home last night. was out on a mad one all weekend and feel great today. I was drinking becks all weekend if thats of any relevance to anybody

It maybe just a personal thing but the weekend before i was dying on sunday after beeing out in dublin.

" in 1516. This decree established for the first time that only barley (later malted barley), hops and pure water could be used to brew beer. The use of yeast was not yet known at that time. The success of the fermentation process was left to chance, as the brewers unknowingly relied on yeast particles in the air. Today this Beer Purity Law is the oldest still valid food law in the world. In the eyes of the European Union, however, this law was inhibitive to competition. Now, as a result of the EU ruling, beer may be imported into Germany which was not brewed in accordance with the Beer Purity Law, as long as this fact is clearly stated.

oh god
