Bairnardo Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Modelo this evening, having visited the Day Today shop in Alloa Road Stenny, which gets talked up as having a great choice of beers. Afraid not. I like Modelo but it's not really what I went there for. My homemade cider is a few days from being ready so it's just Modelo and maybe a dram later 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asda used to a tremendous deal of three 4 packs for £12 and had a top selection, such as Cusqueña*, Quilmes, Brahma, Bud 66**, Lowebraü, Tiger, Singha and loads of others). I love the selection of beers most supermarkets have now, bit would love if they brought back a big lager/pilsner section like they used to have. *Not seen this in years. Loved that stuff. **Yeah, come at me! Thought it was great! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first few times I tried Cusquena I was raving about it but it too seemed to go downhill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senorsoupe Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 It's a hot day today so Steam Whistle pilsner is the drink of choice. Very refreshing, especially from the bottle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig fae the Vale Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 A bit overly sweet but not terrible. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first few times I tried Cusquena I was raving about it but it too seemed to go downhill Ah that's a shame, absolutely loved Cusqueña. Brahma was nice too (aye I do mind it was a screw top). I used to have buy three 4 packs (for £12) on a Friday night and drink them over the course of the evening before the football when I was (much) younger and was absolutely fine. If I did that today I'd wake up tired as f**k, thirsty as f**k (with the dehydration headache) and would have to shite at least twice during the day! Hopefully the lager/pilsner Wwill make a comeback in the shops. I have seen a few more (Korev, Brooklyn) recently so would love to see a section of more of them alongside the 'craft' beers as well. Basically, the bigger selection the better! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted June 24, 2023 Share Posted June 24, 2023 Put in an order to Fierce earlier in the week. Drank them this evening. Really liked them, some good stuff. Wish I'd gotten the Habanero one too (was in Aldi a few weeks ago). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game changer. This is on my list lol. Whereabouts did you find it? I opened this last week and finishing the last half now. Xmas present from the parents; my dad gave me it and said 'I think you'll like this one'. He was mostly right. I love the smell and the initial goodness, but there's something in the aftertaste that I dunno about. I'm not sure if it's a taste I don't like, or if I'm expecting something that it's not giving me. There's one or two unidentifiable factors that are keeping it at 7/10 instead of pushing it up to a 10/10. Do not fret tho, I am enjoying it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnderooMFC Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Sorry not sorry for the double post lol (my browser doesn't like quoting people from two different pages and uploading my own pic all at once) On 23/06/2023 at 19:45, stimpy said: Tonight I will mostly be drinking my father's day gift from the girls. 7am start tomorrow so just one or two. Had this at New Year's 19->20 with my dad (and my ex). I liked it Mainly this comment and doublepost is because of your picture though. It's probably the design on the tumbler itself, but that picture/glass looks photogenic as f**k. I been taking pics of interesting drink or bottles for facebook since 2018/2020, but viewing this thread I think I need to up my game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eednud Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 Goliath NEIPA from Six Twelve Brewing in St Agnes, an Adelaide suburb. Might have had this one before, it’s very hoppy and it’s 6.6% A dangerous brew as it doesn’t taste strong which might be the David to this Goliath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eednud Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 from Hawkers Beer from Reservoir, Victoria, Rover Merri Creek Middy. A mid strength (3.5%) that tastes like a full strength and as the can says a perfectly sociable beer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
