You have boddies?
You might enjoy this advert for the ‘cream of Manchester’ - its old but good and parodies some of the more ‘serious’ commercials of the day.
In addition, some of the smoother UK bestBitters/pale ales would probably be to your approval. I’m thinking Bombardier, or maybe crouch vale brewers gold.
The greatest beer I have ever had is Great Lakes Oak Aged Blackout Stout on tap at the brewery. They only make small batches every year, and while it is always good, the batch they had last December was out of this world. I’ve had Westy 12, Dark Lord, Kuhnenn Raspberry Eisbock, Rochefort 10, you name it, this was the most sublime thing I have ever swallowed.

Corona is nappy - but better than Tecate and about the same as Dos Equis green bottle. Get a Pacifico, a Modello Especial or a Bohemia - or a Sol Cerveza (better than Corona).[/quote]
True. I forgot about modelo. I do like that better than corona, but I still like corona in the summer.
I came on this thread because I’m actually enojoying myself some post workout carbs as we speak.

Waterloo Dark, its like a guinness with less of a bad aftertaste
What the shit are you talking about? I raise your “bad aftertaste” bullshit, and suggest Biotest make a guinness flavored Surge.[/quote]
LOL, That is a great call.

No doubt. Beamish and Pyramid DPA are way up there because they also use that same nitrogen cascade thing.
Somebody please tell me there is no such thing as Guiness Light…I toasted the birth of each of my sons with a Guiness while smoking a cigar on my front porch…I would easily pick Guiness as my last request beer just because of the memories I have of drinking it…now…this…this…Guiness Light !!! It can’t be !

There’s not - that’s just the best sort of approximation I could come up with for describing the taste of Pete’s - it’s reminiscent of Guinness, but lighter both in taste and in your stomach.
My favorites are probably Heineken and St. Pauli Girl. I can’t believe nobody has mentioned St. Pauli Girl yet. There Special Dark is especially good on cold winter nights.
A good pilsner or oatmeal stout from a quality microbrewery is also very good.

Ive never heard of guinness light. To the US guys who are fond of it - how does your Guinness compare to the Guinness over here in the UK?
Im guessing there might be differences, especially so if the gas used on the draft differs.[/quote]
No Guinness light…that’s a relief…I almost had to boycott when they had those old jackasses on that commercial yelling brilliant.
I had a few pints over on your side of the pond about 15 years ago on the ol’ honeymoon…main thing I remember is taking a pregnancy test and scoring positive…made me feel better knowing the meesus wasn’t getting sick in the morning due to sleeping avec moi…wait…this was supposed to be about beer…oh yeah…Guinness was about the same…only served a little warmer.

How much do you pay for it? I ask only because I can urinate in a bottle and pour some rubbing alcohol in there and sell it to you for half of what you’re already paying.
