GiGi Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I love that stuff, shame it's so expensive though. Really? I think you can pick up a few bottles in Tesco for a pound odds each. It's strange tasting but I don't mind one now and again for something a bit different.

TRVMP Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I'm going to try and get a hold of that stuff and sample its taste, sounds intriguing. If you haven't ever tasted it, try and get a bottle of Gorch Fock made by the Three Floyd’s Brewing Company in Munster. Simply an astounding lager. Light, slightly sweet but with an abundance of flavour and its finish is very traditionally crisp. mmmmmmmmm I'm going to one of the massive liquor stores tonight, will definitely have a look for it. edit: change of plan.

GiGi Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 That's the wee crappy bottles, i like the big boys (so to speak) You can get the bigger bottles (660ml) there too. Again reasonably priced.

Rasta Ton Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Kasteel Cru is the daddy of the lagers. Corona is also tops with a wee slice of lime in the neck to sook the beer through.

TRVMP Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 One of the best subsets of lager is of course the pilsner. Here is the greatest pilsner in the world: http://www.oskarblues.com/the-brews/mamas-little-yella-pils Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThornTON Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I tend to only drink Peroni, Becks, Tennent's or Sagres. All their nations equivalent of Tennent's tbh... not a fan of the darker tasting lagers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Regarding Oranjeboom, I haven't tried it but Hertog Jan, Bavaria, Amstel and Heineken are all third-rate too. Grolsch is the only decent Dutch beer that you could easily get a hold of. Especially good drunk from the jam-jar bottles. Leffe and Hoegaarden beers just taste weird. Better Belgian ones are Kwaak (which I think is served in a flask and test-tube holder), and Kriek, a cherry beer that puts any other fruit beers to shame. The site is supposed to be a place for the extended 'family' of Morton supporters - having an affinity with people that you don't know, because you share a love of your local football club. It's not supposed to be about point scoring and showing how 'clever' or 'funny' you are, or just being downright rude and offensive to people you don't know, because you can get away with it. Unfortunately, it seems the classic case of people who have little standing/presence in real life, use this forum as a way of making themselves feel as if they are something. It's sad, and I've said that before.. So, having been on Morton forums for about 15 years I guess, I've had enough... well done t*ssers, another Morton supporter driven away.

Once sampled a beer from Stads Brewery in Nijmegen which was just quality, really was impressed for a Dutch beer but I never took the details. If you like a good Pale Ale the Beligians make a quality one called Nieuw Ligt Grand Cru but its over 10% so one has to be careful with how many they consume. We are a MEAN diddy team!!!

Andy M Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 For lager type beers it has to be Desperados. If things don't change, they'll stay the way they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyerton Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 That is actually quite a nice one, it's all i get when visiting the inlaws in Whiting Bay The Arran brewery is located at the bottom of the main Goatfell path at Cladach just outside Brodick. It wasn't producing the beer for a while and then came back on stream. http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Attraction_Re...n_Scotland.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRVMP Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Arran Blonde isn't a lager. It's bloody amazing, but it's not a lager. It's a blonde ale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRVMP Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 On the subject of non-lagers I have developed a taste for: Cooper's Sparkling Ale. An unfiltered, heavily carbonated, very refreshing pale ale. For a session I prefer it without the sediment so I leave the dregs in the bottle. With a meal, just pour the whole thing.
