Dear, Dad. It is with great regret and sorrow that I'm writing you. I had to elope with my new girlfriend, because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mum and you.[/size]
I've been finding real passion with Stacy. She is so nice, but I knew you would not approve of her because of all her piercing's, tattoos, her tight Motorcycle clothes, and because she is so much older than I am.[/font]
[/size]But it's not only the passion, Dad. She's pregnant. Stacy said that we will be very happy. She owns a trailer in the woods, and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. We share a dream of having many more children.
[/size]Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn't really hurt anyone. We'll be growing it for ourselves and trading it with the other people in the commune for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want.
[/size]In the meantime, we'll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS so that Stacy can get better. She sure deserves it!
[/size]Don't worry Dad, I'm 15, and I know how to take care of myself. Someday, I'm sure we'll be back to visit so you can get to know your many grandchildren.
[/size]Love, your son, Joshua.
[/size]P.S . Dad, none of the above is true. I'm over at Jason's house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than the school report that's on the kitchen table. Call when it is safe for me to come home!
[/size] [/size] [/size] [/font]

I am very partial to Norfolk Wherry, or Albion beer - yum! The local pub also sells a beer called Doom Bar - it's cornish, quite tasty, and you can't go wrong at the price!
My preferred alcoholic beverage is Breton Cider. Not your piss poor, slightly boozy apple juice that tastes like goats piss, or the overly sweet Stella Artois cidre (poncy stuff for Belgian poofters!), I'm talking a glass of cold, Val de Rance Heritage Celte cider, made not 10 minutes from home in Brittany, from apples around my home.
Or if I'm really, really lucky, it's the cider my friend Maurice Boixière gets from a farmer down the road. The famer only makes something like 100 bottles a year, but my god, is it tasty! Christ knows what the alcohol content is, but after a sip or two, you really don't care. :)

Maybe even two.
;)
Tiger or Corona have been the cooking lager of choice recently, Stella is silly expensive here atm but that usually has a place.
Hobgoblin, Old Peculiar, Broon Ale in bottles.
Basically as long as it ISN'T Bud, Miller or Tennents I'm happy to sup it.

Went to a little bar in Enschede in Holland one time where they sold something like 180 different bottled beers - wish that was my local! They had the correctly logo'd glasses for many of them too. They also had some old Brit bike in a glass case on the wall, very early, 1920s/30s or something like.
Post by: Tefer on 26 April 2014, 03:11:20 pm
Tefer - sounds like we are the same I am drinking that Amigo at the mo and looking forward to it in the summer after a nice ride, I like inns and gunn too.

Looks like in you're picture fazersharp, all your favourites are temporary out of stock :b

Pretty-much all of the Belgian Trappist beers, which are easy for me as I'm in the Mosel Valley, close to the Belgian and Luxembourg borders, where I stock up. Also like heiferweissen (wheat beer) and Alt (pale ale) here in Germany. Spoilt for choice really!
Usually have a single malt chaser with them - particularly Talisker.
I always thought Alt Bier was the German dark beer, if my (somewhat limited) memory serves correctly. I remember having it in a tall glass in a bar in Gutersloh with strawberries in the bottom, and a long handled spoon to scoop them out with - luvvvvverly! Curiously filling though (looks puzzled).
The favourite beer out there for us lot (RAF) was Warsteiner - "wobbly" as it got nicknamed. Not like the crap we get in bottles here, proper non-chemically-abused stuff :) What I can remember of the Wobbly Brewery Trip is.............er, nothing :lol
And on a detachment to Kaufbeuren, we did our best to drink the local breweries dry - mostly Weiz(ss?)enbier - this was pale in colour, strong, with sediment that you had to let settle to the bottom after pouring.
And whilst there, a Dutch F16 pilot (said he was anyway, and I was too pissed to argue :lol ) introduced us to a very wicked way of drinking Vodka. Take one tall, slim glass. FILL with vodka. Place a slice of lemon on top. Put a teaspoonful of sugar, and a teaspoonful of instant coffee on the lemon slice. Fold the lemon slice and eat, then down the vodka in one!!! :eek
The idea was that the sugar took the bitterness out of the lemon, the lemon meant you wouldn't taste the vodka, and the coffee enabled you to keep going all night! HEALTH WARNING - I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS AT HOME!!! :rollin
One other nasty little poison comes to mind (apart from weissenkorn etc) from my time out there: Kummerling. Served in tiny miniatures bottles - you hold the neck of the bottle between your teeth and throw your head back - and the Kummerling burns like foc all the way down!
Funnily enough, I didn't achieve a great deal in Germany :\

But I do like the occasional pint of good real ale. Nice to see Arran beer being mentioned, yeah good stuff, and it's nice to have a pint o it after climbing some of the Arran hills.
Lager, I do like a bottle Furstenberg, one of the very few lagers I can find in the supermarket actually worth drinking.
Like others, more into my Whisky.
For regular consumption you can't beat Black Grouse or Black Bottle. Note that Black Bottle has been completely reworked and a much better dram than it was just a few months ago. Plus both are often discounted by the supermarkets. Don't underestimate good blends.
And if you like blends, for a few quid more you can have a bottle of Johnnie Walker Black Label, a extremely complex dram, often misunderstood but many will argue that there is no better whisky - period. Strange that my favourite 3 blends are all called black. Though Tesco was selling Ballantines a while back at a good price, lovely dram, but I don't see anybody other than some of the Whisky specialists selling it now.
Single Malts? Ones that I've been really impressed with - Stonachie, anything from the Springbank distillery, Talisker 10yo, Glendronach (it's back on form) and yes Bruichladdich (worryingly it's changed hands again), oh and Kilchoman (distillery founded 2005) really impressed me. My bottle of precious 3 year old Kilchoman (and generally I never hang onto bottles) might get opened on September the 19th this year, or failing that it might end up on e-bay in a few years time.
I do often like bottles that have Cask Strength or more importantly non-chillfiltered stamped on em.
Did somebody mention Laphroaig? Some folks love it, it's got a fanatical following, but for me I'd get more pleasure out of licking a used ash tray which has similar taste, finish and levels of sophistication :lol But hey each to their own.

Enjoy Wadworths Old Timer as a winter warmer.
Summer will be here soon so rough cider - the drier the better Hecks is good (along with their perry) and Roger Wilkins at Mudgely for heart of Somerset cider making.
