Genuine Malayan Tiger? Vietnamese Bah Me Bah (I will not translate but it's like the words for cheap Russian Vodka)?

Ah - the Guinnesss noh - I've me T-shirts for St James Gate and a free pint on entry - and a pleasure it is to discuss something politically meaningful here for a change.....

D'ye think they'd recognise me two days in a row in the same T-shirt.....???? Or if I went around and came in again and again on the same day????

Night all - the ex wants to go to bed and I'm using her computer at the farm.....

I love beer, but prefer wine these days.

A bottle or two a day will do me.

Can't remember the last time I woke up with a hangover though (maybe when I was 17).

I don't really like beer much....

I went from being a once a week 6-pack of boubon and colas drinker when I was 22, to a once a fortnight beer drinker as a 34 year old. The change was pretty quick for me to get a liking for beer. After that, I hated the taste of bourbon and colas. My last 6-pack of pre-mixers were at the start of January, and I just couldn't drink it all in one night. Beer is pretty easy to drink, and I don't get the hangovers that I would get from pre-mixers.

It's bloody awful. Australian beer must be the worst in the world - I mean this. I can't figure out the huge foreign sales of tasteless CUB beers like Fosters and Crown lager.

The worst beer I've tried is XXXX.

The best clear beer I've tried, without a doubt, is Beer Lao.

It comes from one of the poorest, least industrialized countries in the world. It beats all those big selling Asian beers like Tiger and San Miguel, and it definitely beats the big selling world beers like Heineken and Stella - which aren't all that bad, but not as good as Lao.

Cambodian beer isn't too bad either - maybe it has something to do with the French influence.

Mind you, I haven't yet tried a Vietnamese beer I'd drink more of.

Vietnam - and China - has some of the cheapest beer in the world, but it's flat and metallic.

Beer Lao - I'd love to think of a good marketing campaign and import the stuff. The problem is, the only beer that seems to take off is crap beer like Crown lager.

And if it is just marketing (and nothing to do with taste), how come the biggest selling beers come in such plain packaging?

Look at VB. It might as well be Home Brand.
