British beers thread

[Kirkland Laing]

So after being a poofy wine drinker for years I started drinking beer again a year or so ago. I was drinking Belgian beers for a while but a couple of weeks ago in a restaurant I had a bottle of an English bitter-type beer called Trophy Special, then I had a few more. I came out of the restaurant a British beer fan.

Since then I've also had a few bottles of something called Wadworth 6X, which is spectacular. So are there any British beer drinkers out there who can recommend beers for me to try?

Most Americans have lousy taste for beer. We tend to like "light" stuff which is like drinking carbonated water. Newcastle, Boddington, Smythwicks, Bass are all pretty good. Most German, Austrian, Belgian stuff is also good. I prefer stout myself, Guiness or Murphy's Irish are good. My favorite American beer is Samuel Adams which at least has some taste to it. Where I live we also have a place called John Harvard's Brew House where they make their own beer. It's pretty good with the exception of Espresso Stout and Choclate Stout. Yuk!!!

OK, I'm not really into the Newcastle Brown, and Boddies is a bit bland for me, but when it comes to the ales, you could do worse than try a few of these:

Black Sheep Ale - probably my all time favourite, so much I had my dad bring a crate back from the brewery last time he was up north.
Bishop's Finger
Greene King IPA
Tanglefoot
Tomos Watkin

Adelscott is the "bollocks" as you "lot" might say....I believe it's from Scotland actually but it's a Scotch Ale and it's really fucking good

You may feel free to kiss my bee-hind son, cause if you're on a budget, it's a damn sight better than carling or whatever lagers are on the buy one get four free shelf.

I used to drink Worthy Creamflow when i was in college, i was like 16/17 always fucking skint and it was £1.20 in my local lol;

I have never realy been a beer fan though to be honest, Stella or carling if im just local have a queit one, otherwise it's Dark rum & Coke.

Strange jno one has mentioned John Smith tho

[totalboxing1]

Never really liked real ales and more of a lager in the way of carling fan. Classic student!

Maybe I should become a man and try some real ales, its actually been a few years since I gave um a try! My mums fella and my bro really like Black Sheep. Might have to give it a go, I might have grown up abit since last time!

I'm not really a beer drinker, but my wife and I were staying at a hotel trying drinks we'd never had. She got something called a blue poppa smurf and I got an Irish car bomb. The bartender gave me the rest of the Guiness along with my drink and I have to say, Guiness isn't bad.
