agree with this totally, i drink pale hoppy or fuity blonde beers, for the taste rather than the strength.
but, i am just sipping a jura at present, which is quite strong.

Love it, love it, love it!

Two bottles of Crouch Vale Amarillo and two Fullers Bengal Lancers whilst I ate a curry and watched the last episode of the Lonesome Dove mini series, now a glass of red and MOTD... All the time scoring brownie points, as Mrs Flea is out with friends and I'm looking after the mini Fleas! 🙂

I totally stopped drinking it when I got diagnosed coeliac and told to go on a wheat free diet. Turned to cider instead. Now I don't know if everyone realises this, but cider is made out of [i]fruit[/i]. So that had to go. I'd always assumed the gluten free beer would be manky, because making beer without wheat is a bit like trying to make some sort of meat substitute out of fungus. But it turns out, some of it is pretty bloody good. Ah beer, never leave me again!

I agree.
Been off it since Sept as going sober for Macmillan.
I would love my reintroduction pint on Sat to be Brains SA Gold...but as I'm not in Wales it will probably be a lovely Blue Monkey Infinity down the local ale establishment...can't wait 😉

Beer to me is a kind of easy Slapper: love it in the evenings, but not the morning after.

I remember taking some medication a few years ago that made bet taste ridiculously bitter for a few months. I was mortified.

Luckily, my tastebuds returned to normal operations eventually and I'm so relieved I can love beer again.

You don't know what you have until you fear you might lose it...

Had a post ride Sunday roast at the magnificent Royal Oak at Hurdlow with a mate today. Rather fell in love with the Thornbridge Cedar they had on. All sorts of flavours going on with it, shame I had to drive home and only had a half pint.....

Among the beers Wetherspoons are doing in their beer festival is this absolute belter.7.5% of West Coast citrusy style all for £1.99 a pint. If you like an IPA this is a stunner.
