Fav Bottled Beer

[MervilleUnited]

Forgive me all mods for this!:eek:

Now Lads (And Lassies)
The New Irish can have access to a wide range of Bottled Beers at the local Supermarket at little money:)

Trying a "Cobra" tonight, Nicer than Heineken I think!:cool:

"Tiger" also not Bad, but there is an Italian Beer I am Trying to remember, VERY smooth!

Any others to recommend?

Used to drink Holsten alot but not now.

Wiese beer (sp?), the crystal one (green label), great stuff

Red Stripe, Bahaus (sp?) from Brazil is nice when really cold, Red-eye is good stuff too. Tiger and Cobra are nice alright but there are nicer, cant remember the name now, yellow and red label though.

O'Hara's stout is definitely worth a mention here, really really nice stuff.

[the 12 th man]

San Miguel,Erdinger among loads.

[dcfc_1928]

At the moment, I'm liking Tsingtao - a Chinese beer which is becoming more widely available.

Tastes very "clean"

[Strabane_Harp]

Start drinking Diageo products or i will hurt kittens :mad:




but in seriousness if its bottled i prefer miller *checks bosses arent looking*

but in pint or can its Harp

[noby]

At the moment Shepherd Neame's Ales, available in my local spar, are on heavy rotation:

Spitfire
Bishop's Finger (aka Nun's delight!)
1698 Strong Ale.

IMO, a crystal weiss kind of defeats the purpose. The yeast sediment adds most of the flavour.

Hopefully, we'll see a stock of Oktoberfest beers soon, if not in already.

[steno]

Fond of Henikin in a bottle meself.
Corona (have i spelt that right) you know the one you put the lime into the bottle is nice too.

[Magicme]

My fav is Desparados but u cant get it here....it is a lovely larger with some Tequila in for extra kick.

Love Leffe Blond too...can get it in the Squealing Pig.

As for Erdinger & Krombacher or Budvar you can get them in the bar at CHP for any Rovers fans who are coming up tonite and would like a different beer and they are the same price as Bud or Miller!

"Tiger" also not Bad, but there is an Italian Beer I am Trying to remember, VERY smooth!


Is it Nastro Azzuro? very nice! Tiger is class, but big fan of Grolsch.

[Dublin12]

Staropramen,1790,Budvar or Tiger,have some of these in the fridge chillin for the game tomorrow,hopefully they'll be still there after tonight though:)

[superfrank]

Budweiser
Tiger
Rolling Rock
Miller

are the only bottles I can really stand to drink.

For me it's Pints of Bud or JD & Coke.

[joeSoap]

Tiger
Freezing cold Heineken
Corona (must have lime)
Nastro Azurro

in that order

[Dodge]

Nastro Azzuro?
My favourite. A fair few pubs in Dublin sell Peroni, which I think is an export version of that.

Love with Corona (with lime) but too much hassle if I'm at home. There its Miller at €20 a case from Dunnes...

[Magicme]

I like the taste of Lime but hate the feeling of all citrus fruit...the juice dries my pinkies out and I just cant stand the feeling of their skins.

Miller €20 in Dunnes.....gonna get me some of that! Thanks for the tip off!

[Pauro 76]

How about Newcastle Brown Ale? Tip for ye though: Never leave it in the freezer, and then forget about it. Gets messy... :)

[Drumcondra Red]

Corona is probably best from a bottle, lime included!!! Used to drink Holsten a lot, and the Bishops Finger deserves an honorable mention!

[Dotsy]

Bought a round of Desparados in a club in Riga a few weeks back on a stag weekend. I wasn't popular with the rest of the lads. The consensus was it was the most disgusting beer anyone had ever drank.

Franziskaner Dunkel weissbeer and Staropramon would be my favourites.

[Magicme]

Oh I love it! My dad does too so when any of us go to Holland or France we fill our cases!

[Dodge]

Staropramon would be my favourites.
Honestly thought that had the word strapon in there. Thank **** its friday....

[Magicme]

Honestly thought that had the word strapon in there. Thank **** its friday....

:eek: thanks for the laugh!!!!

[Pauro 76]

:D

Staropramen would be the word, good stuff too!

Had a few bottles of Cobra Non Alcohol the other night coz I was driving it wasn't bad
local offo have bottles of Moser on introductory offer of €1 a bottle and its well nice (very like Heineken) hope it stays €1 for a while to come

[Conor H]

Love Heineken from a bottle i must say.I hate miller froma bottle!Uggh!

[First]

I like the taste of Lime but hate the feeling of all citrus fruit...the juice dries my pinkies out and I just cant stand the feeling of their skins.

Miller €20 in Dunnes.....gonna get me some of that! Thanks for the tip off!

Its great stuff 20 bottles of beer nicely chilled and drunk in one night.:o

[Lim till i die]

What about twenty bottles of that Biere D'or stuff in Tesco for like €8??

Leaves you with enough change out of a twenty to get ten fags and a bottle of cider for each hand :D

[MervilleUnited]

Is it Nastro Azzuro? very nice! Tiger is class, but big fan of Grolsch.

Cheers THAT is the one!:)

Specialist Offie Here I Come!;)

[Jaime]

At home, crates of Nelson or Miller
Out and about, Miller or Nastro / Peroni

[aberharp]

bottles of heineken are my favourite then it would probaly be
budwieser

[Magicme]

I got my mate who works in Dunnes to check for the Miller for me and they dont have it on offer in the Monaghan Store....:mad:

Drank a wee bit too much Coors lite last nite......:cool: (not coz I think am cool but need the shades for the hangover!)

[dahamsta]

Erdinger

[osarusan]

Corona is nice with lime. If you can get your hands on "Kirin", a Japanese beer, I recommend it.

On a side note, a joke.

"Why is Budweiser like having sex in a canoe?"

Because they're both f##king close to water.

[dancinpants]

"Kirin", a Japanese beer

Good shout. If ye like Corona...Pacifico works too. As does Dos Equis, Bohemia, Tecate.

For you Budweiser people...just get yerself into the kitchen, go over to the cupboard whip out a pint glass. Stroll on over to the sink, turn the tap on and whack the glass under it - ye'll save a fortune. ;)

[Aberdonian Stu]

Tried Cobra last night. It is indeed "nicer than Heineken" but very few beers aren't.

Thought it was ok. Probably worth a second look. We bought it because it was cheap.

[EnDai]

Erdinger. By a mile.

[DmanDmythDledge]

Not really gone on beer but Corona and Rolling Rock would be my favourites.

I find a bottle of vodka can be a suitable alternative to a bottle of beer.:D

[town73]

Victoria Bitter. I think it's only available in Oz bars.

[endabob1]

I find VB a bit harsh, if you can get your mitts on Carlton Cold it is the beer of the gods, as one mate puts it "It's like angels pi$$ing on your tounge!" :D

Other great Bottled beers are Singha, I htink it's brewed in Singapore but it's always in Thai Restaurants and Tiger is pretty good too as mentioned elsewhere.
Tesco in the UK have recently started stocking Singha in 660ml bottles, a couple of those is a great way to wind down in the evening.

[Partizan]

Some of my favourites:

Erdinger: Was overdoing it so had to give up. belly buster
Budvar: Lovely but a tad bit on the expensive side.
Duvel: When in Belgium, drank loads of this stuff and got carried out more often.
Niksicsko: Montenegrin beer. Lovely but has to be drunk ice cold. Best served in Belgrade with a miniskirt clad waitress. :D
Phoenix: Have the odd tipple of it now and again in the local.
Heinken Export: A must have accessory in Ayia Napa.

[Peadar]

...if you can get your mitts on Carlton Cold it is the beer of the gods, as one mate puts it "It's like angels pi$$ing on your tounge!" :D

Was drinking it on Saturday in the Porterhouse.
Wouldn't be my favourite though.

In my opinion, Staropramen Premium and Erdinger Weissbier are great!

It's a bit of an acquired taste. Grows on you. Drank Carlton and Toohey's New for a time, but found them a bit sharp.

Website about drinking beer in Prague,nice photo of Bill Clinton having a couple of beers with Maggie Thatcher lookalike:D .

Bud Ice is lovely. Havn't seen it sold in Ireland though. Couple of new beers on the market here in teh UK. Carlsberg Elephant (8%), Carlsberg Edge (hint of lemon ;) ) Sure I've seen an 8% bottle of Cobra, think its called 'King Cobra'

I don't drink much Beer meself like :D

[Pat O' Banton]

NBA, I'm too fond of it. I went a time when I couldn't stand the stuff but started drinking it again due to the fact that I looked like a weedy cockney in a bar full of northern rock heads so I drank to fit in and realised just what I'd been missin, since then I've been making up for lost time.

Apart from that the hard to find Argentine Quilmes slips down very easily and Hamburg's Astra is great stuff.

[Peadar]

Carlsberg Elephant (8%)

There's only one place to drink Elephant Beer.
Mouse & Elephant, 49 Vestergade, Copenhagen...

[wws]

Argentine Quilmes

endorsed fully
greatly added to my world cup viewing in spain
the local brew was ambar which was tough going after a few days
so quilmes came as a welcome relief!

[strangeirish]

Had trouble finding a decent brew in Oz. VB was brutal, Fosters...nuff said. Settled on Hahn Ice, lovely on a hot day.

Quilmes, dont they sponsor a South American club team? Newky Brown is class though, rekindled my love for it. Although its quite heavy for the summer, good stuff all the same. My Aussie housemate has got me into Singha, a Thai beer, and its damn nice! :)

[Kingdom]

Can't beat 6 bottles of Hofbraú for €15. Up the gickerstrasse!

[drinkfeckarse]

Is it Nastro Azzuro? very nice!


That's lovely that stuff. Also a big fan of the old reliable's like Heineken, Carlsberg and Corona. In that order.

[BrayUnknowns]

It's not beer but im starting to drink a new cider called Kopperberg - Absolutely lovely !
