    Cider is pretty close to alco-pops.

    Vodka-Martini, shaken not stirred. James Bond drinks it, therefore it must get special dispensation.

    Basically, anything mainstream American should be banned. Microbrewery stuff is perfectly acceptable though.

    I think corona falls under the "it's not a beer if you've to put fruit in it" category.

    Good article - gotta disagree with the person who said Harp though - its rocket fuel plain and simple - it's a silent killer. My nominations for the list are Corrs Light (because it a pregnant womans drink) and Bud because it is pi$$ - also barcardi breezers are shyte and should never be drank by anyone other than a good looking female. Also any lads who drink bottles of lager instead of pints are an absolute disgrace. Even women drink pints and not bottles for gods sake. I mean ill never understand why someone will pay 4.50+ for a bottle of lager when they have the same lager on tap for 20 or 30 cents less. Them lads should not be classed as drinkers no matter what drink it is. the only time you should drink bottles is when you are driving. simple as that.
    *only joking about the last bit

    In fairness though, beer often tastes far better from bottles than from dirty taps or the dregs of a keg.

    Plus, some pubs will often have a cheaper beer hooked up to something like Carlsberg and try to con you.

    Edit: Typing in blue must surely be considered unmanly!

    I drink bottles when I'm dancing, which I only do when I'm rat arsed.

    By the time i drink bottles, I usually think I'm John ****ing Travolta:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,385 ✭✭✭ThunderCat


    fair enough i agree with the blue writing - it should have been a more manly shade of blue at the very least. i kinda do see the point about bottles in pubs when the pints are shyte but ive been drinking in old mans pubs the last while and all the pints have been fantastic so ive fogotten how dire things can be out there. the pints in some places are a disgrace to be fair. the pub in the college i went to springs to mind.

    anything that promotes drunkenness and letchery should be allowed. except bud, cause its ****e.

    I am new to BGRH but anyone hate Miller I think its rotten.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 947 ✭✭✭mikewest


    Being pedantic the thread is about banned BEERS from BGRH therefore discussions of cider, alcopops, cocktails
    >

    I agree with most of the recommendations so far but a special place in hell must be reserved for Michelob Ultra and if anyone remembers it Kaliber. There is also an honourable mention required for worst beer in the world Murree beer from Pakistan.

    being more pedantic the thread is actually "Banned drinks from BGRH". Therefore slagging off cider is, as always, perfectly acceptable.

    Agree. Rotten aftertaste.

    well thats a given


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26,566 ✭✭✭✭Fratton Fred


    Miller is one of the few lagers I actually like, only from bottles though for some reason.

    I've usually got a fridge full of that and/or stella.
