So yous fullas and fullesses .... whats your favourite beer , or drink of choice?

I'm partial to most kinds .... but currently enjoy the darker varieties ... Speights Old Dark Please

I`m a lager man myself, although anything free is good too!
Currently getting into overseas brands, especially the higher percent ones, good stuff!!!!
Might just pour myself one now,seeming as the weather down here at the moment is @#%&!! Cheers.
Ride safe,

Did I say Speights Summer Ale - Monteiths Summer Ale - Brewed in Auckland - where all good beers are brewed!
None of this pure and healthy country crap!

By cripes.. belgian beer is an evil version of holy water. Very little substance! What is there isn't very tasty either.

I'm a firm Monteiths Supporter. So much selection! Did anyone try a Dopplebock? at 7% it's like eating a pie! Awesome stuff

Warsteiner or Königspilsener from Germany!!

For substance try Youngs Winter Warmer or Youngs Double Chocolate Stout. Dark beers, that you need an industrial suction pump to suck out of the glass! like Doppelbock only heavier.
While Im not a fan of dark biers (Guinness- yeach), those 2 were actually really good. English beers - I bought them at Woolies.

As an expat Mancunian, first choice for me is Boddingtons. I've only had it from the draught-flow cans in NZ. Not a bad immitation of the hand pulled pints of my youth.
