I go through various stages of drinking various shit...

Karpackie - Polish Beer, has to be nearly frozen but seriously nice (and cheap)

Guinness - Like all of my great loves in life, Ska, Saint Mirren, etc., A Black and White beer. A decent pint is hard to find but well worth the effort.

Red Vermouth - A bit too sweet but also quite spicy would prefer Ginger Wine but it's too hard to find.

Crested Ten - An Irish Whiskey (Jameson's premium blend), this stuff is fucking beautiful especially with a drop of coke.

Bulmers (Magners) - In these summer days is there anything more refreshing than a pint bottle of this stuff in a beer garden.

I'm pretty much a non drinker unless its a big night out, which i don't do that often. On them rare nights out it's cider in the house and morgans and coke when im out.

Can't get that here.

What's the best Mexican beer? That and a slice of lime seems to be back in fashion here in Finland, last time it was so popular was early 90's.

I had a Corona with a slice of lemon (!!!) at the Mogwai show.

Damn, it's only Sol or Corona here, and something related, but Spanish.

Those are mainly dark, right? Is lime served only with lager?

Tried cider in Scotland...thumbs up to Strongbow.

When I'm just chillin' at my house or a friend's house we're usually drinking this http://blogs.westword.com/cafesociety/blue-moon-pale-ale.jpg

A couple months ago I tried this beer at a burger joint and really liked it

I've noticed that i've switched to beer lately rather than the usual vodka/cranberry or jack/coke i use to order

Lime was some thing people started doin in the 80's . Never cared for it . SOL and Corona I think are beers made for export only.Maybe someone in Mexico could clarify ?

I heard that the Lime/Lemon slice was used to rid the neck of the bottle of germs when it's being drunk warm.

Like the look of that Blue Moon stuff.

I'm back on my Guinness this evening. Don't think my first pint even touched the side of my throat on the way down.

I must admit as I've gotten older I've grown more fond of either Stout or Lager, Ales just are too heavy for me.

Mmmm, cider's my favourite! I love Belgian beers, so light and not bitter! The best.
