Shandon Par Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Just now, Rugster said: I drink beer because I like the taste of it. If I could find an alcohol free beer that tastes as good I would quite happily never drink alcohol again. Booze free beer is getting a bit better IMHO. Usually have some in the fridge as an alternative to fizzy drinks or proper beers. You've maybe tried them all but my brief summary for what it's worth: Heineken Zero - perfectly decent, especially when ice cold. Brewdog Nanny state - strong (.5%) for a booze free beer but a reasonable enough beer Budweiser Prohibition Brew - probably better that the real stuff (not that it would be hard) Bavaria - cheap and nasty stuff from Asda but quite malty and tasty Becks Blue - does taste a wee bit like normal Becks but without the kick Cobra Zero - only had it in Indian restaurants but perfectly tasty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have tried the budweiser and becks. Budweiser gave me the shits and heartburn (so only mildly better than the real stuff like you say) Becks shite. Will have a look for the other stuff, particularly Heineken. Choice is sparse up here in the sticks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Is non alcoholic beer getting more popular? I can’t imagine it ever being that popular in the U.K. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying a cold Heineken zero is an okay substitute for a beer if you want a beer but can't get jaiked (or is an alternative to a fizzy drink too) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m disappointed in you. If I drank to get drunk I would just tan vodka. Quicker and easier and cheaper. I enjoy a cool beer, for the taste of it. Simple as that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simple as that.Yip, totally agreeing with you here. I came home from work the other night and had a couple of cans of Strongbow while watching a film. I had 3 of the Jack Daniels cider on Saturday after work as well. I can honestly say I've never finished an alcoholic drink if I didn't enjoy it. I take notions where I'll fancy a cider or a gin and have one the same way I would if I fancied a can of coke. No need to get pished just because it's alcohol. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppino Impastato Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Alcohol tastes shite and drunk people are arseholes. There's no good tasting alcoholic drinks and people who say there are are just deluding themselves as social conditioning has made them desperate to like it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I wouldn't drink anything that I didn't like. There are plenty of beers I wouldn't touch. I dislike the majority of spirits so don't touch them. If you don't like the taste but still drink it then not only are a pishy jakey tramp, but a bit of a moron as well if you are drinking anything other than cheap and nasty vodka or the like. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Any alcohol is drinkable if you stick it in the fridge for long enough, especially for shite wine, the freezer for shite vodka. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coprolite Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Getting very pished at least once a year should be mandatory. It would allow people to let off steam, blab all their secrets and get other folk telt. The reduction in repression would hugely improve society. Medical exceptions only. Allah approves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Rugby is actually quite decent. Furthermore most folk who like it aren't boorish p***ks who drink pints of pish. Some are of course and rugby does seem to have a higher proportion of these types than other sports, but they are minority. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Shite wine goes in the sauce for the casserole or spag bolls. Shite vodka can be used to sterilize worktops or in shampoo if you have dandruff You shouldnt cook with something you wouldnt drink. The simple solution then is not to buy shite wine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugby's utter shite and only exists to give people who are shite at football or have rage issues something to do. It should always be treated with contempt and suspicion, as should anyone who likes it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
