One beer
 

Imagine that you have to choose ONE beer which would be the only beer you were allowed to drink for the rest of your life. On the plus side, there's plenty of it.

It's a terrible situation to be sure, but which one would you choose? Which one beer could you NOT give up?

It would have to be Guinness, especially as there is nothing that comes close in taste.

Obviously it's a nightmare situtation, but if pushed I would have to go for Woodforde's Wherry.

Never heard of it, but will give it a go when I see it. Normally prefer dark ales.

I like the branding!

Can I suggest it someone is going to post a less common beer that they also post some tasting notes from the brewers website (or their own is they have recollection and a florid tongue).

I like dark ales too, but remember it's the only beer you're allowed for the rest of your life... it needs to be good at breakfast too.

This Canadian beer would be a good example to drink on an everyday basis, especially on draught. Or Mad Tom IPA.

For UK beers it would have to be:

These are for drinking every day.

Old Peculier, circa 1980's would also be close.

Somebody who didn't like this beer, once described it to me as 'putting skin on your turds'...

I see they do kits. Are you allowed to bring them into Canada?

Woodforde's, Wherry Best Bitter (England)
http://www.woodfordes.co.uk/assets/i...herry-150b.gif
A former Champion Beer of Britain, Wherry pours a bright golden/orange colour with a moderately retentive white head. The nose is very fine, with a flinty mineral note, fine hoppiness and a biscuity quality with just a hint of lemon zest. On the palate it is very crisp and citrussy, with a big wallop of grapefruit pith acidity and flavour, and good hop levels into the finish. The malt and an orangy fruitiness are very pleasant, in a refreshing and thirst-quenching beer. 3.8% ABV

I make that FOUR beers you've listed!!! (Can't see what the UK beer you chose is)

Get off the fence and pick ONE!! :)

Impossible question, Lager is a summer drink, Ale is a winter drink. I couldn't live with one or the other all year round. I'd have to choose two, Granville Island's Kitsilano Maple Cream Ale during the cold months, and probably Okanagan Spring 1516 lager in summer, though I'm less fussy about lagers. Lately I've been enjoying a 24 pack of Corona lager I brought back from CostCo in the states which worked out about $1 a bottle.
