No idea. To be honest, it's extremely difficult to get decent european beers in this country. You'd think we were a million miles away or something. :rolleyes:Quote:
Tell me, does Germany still have its beer laws in force ie no chemicals? Or has too much competition ruined it?
I haven't even heard of this one. As far as our alcohol prices go, £2 isn't actually that expensive!Quote:
At the risk of starting someting... have u tried Canadian Moosehead? I really liked that but it is so expensive over here (ie Import only) say $5 a bottle (2 pounds roughly)
You wouldn't have. I don't believe it's exported. Indeed, It rarely gets out of Cornwall but it is a fairly new brewery and I believe it will spearhead a real-ale revival in this country! Their beers have a light, hoppy and fruity flavour that puts many other beers to shame. It's in a different league to McEwans so don't let that beer put you off if you ever come across some.Quote:

p.s. A bitter getting warm is not necessarilly a bad thing in this country, the flavour get's better!
I'm sure they still do. I worked over there for a year, and tasted the best lager ever - slightly lighter and sweeter than Cjeck beer. Those small indie brewerys are the best thing - amazing stuff...Quote:

lol thks simon.. i think it was mcewans lager :p Gaffer, i stayed in germany for a few months and yeah the beer is excellent... only prob is that it takes so long to pour!! lol And i love the trust system of handing ur coaster up to the bar.. wouldnt stand a chance in hell here.
Yeah, thats right, they tick the beers off on a coaster.... I forgot about that.
I love the fact it takes a minute to pout - that lovely creamy head...
Did you try schweinhaxen out there? (Pork Leg)
No Gaffer havent heard of that one.. beer and pork in one!! mmm .. which part of germany were u based in? I stayed mainly in Paderborn (nr Beilefeld but travelled around a bit)
Afternoon all :)

Do they still have the scanilty clad girlies printed on the Tennents Lager tins or have the limp wristed lefties got that banned.
