Monteith's Pale Ale

Good for you. Make sure they're ice cold.

I'll hold you to the 'drinking them all at one sitting' thing, mind.

I'll be all over it tomorrow, and one of us will be a dozen lagers richer the next time I'm down your way.

And FYI...I'm sitting here guzzling Steinies as we 'speak'. Like the label says...

"No additives, no preservatives". Don't think you can say that in this day and age if it ain't true.

Good luck. I'm REAL thirsty.

I'm on the Bombay Sapphire and Schweppes. Mostly cos that's all there was in the fridge.

If there's a loophole, they'll sneak through it. Or, quite possibly, my cynicism just cost me twelve Steinies. And I've had far more expensive life lessons than that...

Edit: Initial interweb digging indicates that Steinlager Classic has sugar in it.

Americans have discovered India Pale Ale, which they refer to as IPA. It's all micro-brewed and generally excellent. This from the same country that brought you Bud, Miller's and Coors. Unbelievably really.

Have you endeavored to extend your gin selection yet?

I tried Plymouth, but it was a bit rancid. I'm comforting myself with a few bottles of Bombay in the interim before dipping my toes in the alternative-gin waters again.

There's nothing better nor more refreshing, than an ice cold Steinlager on a hot day.

Fact. Cause I said so.

You're obviously confusing steinlager with beer

For many years myself and 3 buddies have had "beerfests" on Jan 1st which involve a nice day sampling brews while enjoying the summer sun, and having a barbie. This year we tried 16 different beers. Our palates are probably pretty mellow later in the afternoon, it's no high brow event with tasting notes! We just crack 'em open and drink them, chatting about how much we like/dislike it, etc.

We do mostly lager-type brews; from memory Radler, Summer Ale, Stella Artois, Corona, Sol, Miller Chill, Sundance, Rogue Hop, Classy Red, Emersons Winter something or other (tasted like cloves?), Monteith's Original....hmmm, there were 2 other Emersons but I can't recall their names off the top of my head, plus some others. Anyhoo, you get the drift.

We are very lucky to have a friend who always attends and doesn't drink alcohol. That person prevents the steaks being burnt.

We start around noon and just cruise through the afternoon, and wrap up dinner with a wine or two in the evening. I guess because we take a long time drinking we are all okay the next morning, which is nice, too.

The best time of year for beer is Mac's Brewery's Brewjolais season. I canardly wait for this year's.
