Anyone ever drink Thai Beers, Chang or Singha?
I haven't had the guts to try stuff from Asia yet. I hear tales of a wicked hangover. [img]confused.gif[/img]
Was working so not that much fun.On Friday went to Intrepid Fox for a few beers with some glammie friends,and on Saturday went for a meal with a mate after work....and Sunday.....the best of all!!YESSSS!!!Went to park to see all the babyducks,awwwwww,they're the cutiest things ever...awwww :-)
Carl, my local pub sells all the Belgian ales, three different Chimay's, Duvel, Leffe Blonde and Brune, etc, etc.
You ever tried Hoegaarden? That stuff is weird. Not my kinda thing.
Btw, I was sure proper Guinness contains about four times the calories of a regular lager (approx 200 cals a pint for lager, 800 for Guinness). Loads of iron n stuff, that's why they recommend a glass to pregnant mums. Maybe I'm wrong? It is a bit scarey to think how many extra calories I've had lately!

Carl... I'm guessing who ever served you the Guinness had watered it down tremendously, Guiness is thick gloopy stuff, it's reknowned for being very heavy on the tummy, like a meal in a glass LOL!
As for drinkies.... I've just found a nice lil entree of 'Amaretto Liquer' *yum yum yummy ... also, can't beat a nice Black Russian or Rose' Tequila [img]smile.gif[/img]
Jesus how anyone can drink/eat Guiness iz beyond me. Bloody awful!
I haven't been able to enjoy a nice pint of Heinekin now in over a week due to an infected tooth.
Stacey, you could be very well right. I know that there are a few versions of Guinness, and what we get here in the States might be different, as it does travel a bit and I have always heard the only way to truely have a Guinness is to go to the source, being Ireland. But I am guessing what can be found throughout the UK is very similar.
Spice, as mentioned to Stacey, I think we get a different critter here. I have been putting down the Guinness for sometime now, and I do like it, but it doesn't hold a candle to some of the other Stouts I usually drink, either in taste, thickness, color, smell, or anything. But since Guinness is considered the King of them all, I am guessing those that say Guinness is wonderful "over there" are VERY right.
Andii, Heinekin? You mean skunk in a bottle??? [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Oh, and Stacey, your local joint sounds HEAVENLY!!! Yes, I LOVE Hoegaarden! A beautiful Belgian White that is a KILLER summer beer. Lovely stuff. That is one that I can get on tap just down the road from where I work. I can get some very nice stuff from them, and the talk is pretty good there as long as I go at the right times. But I hardly ever go, as I have a better selection in my house and at MUCH less cost.
Skunk in a bottle? Well, i never found no fur in mine mate.... or funny smellz [img]tongue.gif[/img]
It always has that "fake import" taste to me. But hey, if you like it, rock on! Could be a bit different over there. I guess even McDonalds tastes different in your part of the world.
Carl, have you ever had Blackened Voodoo? I started drinking that a few years ago and like 6 months after i did it just vanished from these parts.
