Re: One beer
At the risk of being identified as one of those snooty look-at-us-we-don't-like-bubbles-in-our-beer CAMRA types (minus the beard and the jumper), my nomination would be Hook Norton Brewery's Old Hooky - but only if my supply is fresh from the brewery and in cask; the bottle-conditioned version just isn't quite the same. If I could also persuade the powers-that-be to magically transport the Pear Tree Inn in Hook Norton (the brewery tap) to wherever I happen to be when I fancy a pint, that'd be lovely too, thanks.
This is definitely an all-day beer, too - although I haven't had it for breakfast since student days, I seem to remember (vaguely...) that it goes down very well either on its own or with a fry-up, whether or not one has yet been to bed at that hour of the morning. Couldn't do that today, mind you - it takes me seemingly days to recover from even the most mildly overindulgent evening. I note that it was voted "best beer in the world" by readers of the Independent in 2010. Seems I'm not alone in my preference. http://www.hooky.co.uk/our-beers/cask-ales.ashx |

I can't stand them CAMRA people with their snooty look-at-us-we-don't-like-bubbles-in-our-beer or karaoke attitudes. :thumbdown: |

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.

Re: One beer
I like many different beers so.. Doesn't matter so long as it's good, I'll be happy to have beer to drink for the rest of my life.

So it's one beer or no beer. And if you don't pick one, we'll assume you prefer none. And if you prefer none, we'll assume you're a poof. |
