Food, Drink & Dining Out Favourite Beer II

Even in hot weather those big stouts go down a treat.

Agreed. I don't get it when people say stouts are cold weather only. Pigs' arse!

That said, it's probably harder to drink as many in hot weather though.

They brew Guinness Foreign Extra in Malaysia and it is very popular.

6.8% and goes down a treat. Wish they sent it here.

Bourbon County Stout FTW!!!

Once the hot weather kicks in I'll have to start grabbing some Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc. Coopers have recently started pumping it out, I tried it at a Beer and Cider Fest earlier in the year and while it's probably not for everyone it's a nice light (not in alcohol) drinking beer.

Hmm. I've heard that Kronenbourg is the French equivalent of VB?

Kronenbourg is pretty average, However 1664 Blanc is a different beer, I've actually been keen to try it but haven't seen it, Not interested in hunting it

They sell it by the slab where I work. Will grab a bottle soon, see how it goes I guess.

Dan Murphy's should have it. I tried the James squire summer ale last night, from memory it was quite similar to the Blanc

Is it a wheat beer?

Just an average lager.

Tastes O.K. in France as does Heineken in the Netherlands.
The problem is that a. The imported stuff doesn't travel. b. The locally brewed makes it taste like cold water with alcohol.

 

[Catfish Alley]

It's a white beer. It's pretty fruity but goes down ok on hot days.

I see...........Didn't catch the Blanc first time around. Blanc = White

Had Howe Sound Rail Ale Nut Brown tonight. Really good! In fact, their whole range is very tasty. If anybody is travelling around Whistler I recommend their brewery/pub/hotel in Squamish.

Never seen them in a can before. Haven't had one for a while. They are pretty good. One of those beers you have to specifically be in the mood for I think.

Think you can get Torpedo in the can in the USA. Would love if we got that in a can. Would also like Bitburger 500ml cans here.

I've only seen the Nevada range in bottles around here. Got the Bitburger cans though. They are pretty cheap.

Love Bitburger/Konig. Bottle can be skunked sometimes though.

when i was in the uk, back in 2000-02 i would drink either kronenbourg or stella and they tasted alright there.

actually didnt mind the slab of imported kronenbourg i got from aldi a couple months ago, if only for something different.

 

[Catfish Alley]

Heiniken and Kronenbourg are fine. Not great, but I wouldn't turn it back if offered one.
