Red or blue?

Once drank a bottle of it between a mate before a night out. The end result wasn't pretty and I can't stand the smell of the red one anymore.

Johner · 14-06-2013 04:05PM

It was blue! It's far too nice! Head is banging now.

Wonderful, I have tonsilitis... The quack can't decide if it's viral or bacterial, so erring on the side of caution told me to take antibiotics (no beer tonight now) and to get plenty of rest (impossible with 2 small kids to be entertaining) & drink plenty of fluids (except for beer). FFS....

Sorry to hear that mate, but just think,this time next week you will be right as rain, and the beer will taste all that nicer too!

carmanard · 15-06-2013 04:01PM

Bah, everything tastes like the smell of slurry... Were I not on antibiotics I would take advantage of the absence of my taste buds to sample some of that Molson Canadian lager I see them selling so cheaply around, just to tick the box of having tried it at least...

Its lovely! Mix it with coke and it tastes like vanilla. Or mix it with Club Orange and it tastes like a Super Split ice cream! Or red lemonade and it tastes like the sweets frosties! :cool:

Ginger ale. Had many a good night on it.

A squeeze of fresh lime if you have it too.

Its not even bottom of my list tbh

I'm guessing its Coors Light eile, i.e. alcoholic sparkling water

Having a Lomza export (non-pasteurised) here

More into craft stouts & IPAs these days but its a solid enough effort for a standard polish lager

Colonel Sanders · 15-06-2013 06:47PM

Isn't Breaking Bad back next month?

My television viewing (amounting to approx 6 hours a week apart from a bit of sport) usually revolves around Discovery History, BBC4 & Sky Arts. Will be good to get back into watching a decent series.

My wife brought me home a o haras Leanne foiliannes earlier I asked her to get me a few more on my 4th now and feeling tipsy great recommendation though guys damn nice

jimjamcos · 15-06-2013 07:55PM

Golf betting is ridiculous. John Senden is playing well, -1 and can be backed at 18's.
Tiger is 5 shots back on 4+, playing poorly and a couple of points shorter. Backing Tiger Woods in majors has to be the worst value going.

Savage, savage stout.

There's a few still on the list to try but as things stand the best stout I've ever drank

Saying that, I spotted Left Hand Milk Stout in super valu the other night. Plan was to buy a couple today and sample it, but fate conspired against me. It's at the top of next weeks shopping list though

Key lime pie is on the way!!! About time too. Hard to believe jellybean o.s. is getting out of date already? But i,m really looking forward to the klp update.android rocks!!!!!

Johner · 15-06-2013 11:26PM

I stuck to vodka tonight. Made a curry earlier and knocked the table over that I put it on. Not nice cleaning up a load of rice.

Is it worth my while waiting for the newest OS to be released, or just change now & hope the phone manufacturers roll out the update when it arrives?? Very tempted by the Samsung Galaxy S4, beast of a phone, but the fact that you've only got 9 gig space on it straight from the box is a bit crap. I saw that Sammy are rolling out a software update to let apps be kept on the SD card, which is a good move, but no idea if it'll be here any time soon... Getting bored of iOS & the new one upcoming is just Android Lite, so I reckon I'll be making the move....

It won't really matter when key lime pie is released tbh.it depends on what phone you have whether you get the update straight away.its to do with the manufacturers.I have a nexus 7 and a nexus 10 tablet,they are pure Google tablets,so they get the updates first.not sure about the Samsung g4. If you are thinking about getting the nexus 7 tablet,hold fire.there's a strong rum our of a new version being released soon.

Nexus 10 is on my "if I win the lotto" list, I've seen one in action, it's savage alright. Article I read earlier (probably lies) claims samsung said the S4, S3 and the Notes will definitely get the new OS... Basically I'm stuck on the decision of getting the Galaxy S4, or the HTC One, what's tipping the balance in favour of Samsung is the better camera, expandable storage & the fact that Samsung seem to be far more on the ball with software updates than HTC... It's a tough call....

Yeah,personally I would go with the sg4. I have the sg3 for the last year or so and I couldn't fault it.oh, and yes, the nexus 10 is beast.I downloaded a free clip in 4k, the newish format in film.its supposed to be 4 times better than 1080! The nexus 10 plays it without a glitch.
