WORST beer you've ever had?

[fatbadger]

The only beer I buy is "Morrisons Own Brand Ridiculously Cheap and Thoroughly Disgusting Lager" (at least, I think that's what it says on the label) for two reasons:

(1) I don't drink beer, ever
(2) I'm not going to waste good beer on the bastard slugs who keep munching on my veg patch

So, please remember that cheap, disgusting beer has a very important use. It's the middle range stuff that's the really bad stuff - too expensive to waste on slugs, but too horrible to drink.

The pint of Caffreys I had in Kuala Lumpa. Don't know what it was, but it certainly wasn't Caffreys.

 

[Seagull's Return]

Used to drink Ben Truman in my youth - now THAT was a f***ing dreadful pint. Some of the Thai nationally-produced brands are astoundingly vile, too, as are those Indian beers which are called things like "Thunder 7000" or whatever.

Boddington's in a tin

repulsive

 

[Uncle Buck]

Hurlimans (sp) is the original wife beater,

Ah Hurlimans, one of those beers that I always have odd nights on. I either do exactly what is says on the tin, or after a Friday night of drinking the stuff in Zurich I walked out of the bar to find the police firing tear gas in my general direction.

Skol is one of the worst, do not get the hype with either Oranjeboom or Red Stripe, but my pet hate is Kronenberg.

Kronenbourg Blanc.

What the f*** is that all about?

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

xxxx, carling, fosters, all the american crap, stella in a can, john smiths is poor, carling, any co-op own brand, and some french stuff from sainsbury's

The worst beer recently was in The King & Queen. The bar manager, or thats waht he told me poured an alleged pint of Harveys. It looked and smelt like vinegar.

Afert taking a sip, I then asked the bar manager, if he could change the pint for a bottle of Becks.

"Nothing wrong with that mate, that's how we serve it up North."

"Well then you drink it, but I tell you now its off."

"I will then."

As if to prove his cellar skills, and that he could drink Sarsons he gulped it down in one, and said "Lovley."

I then waited for three to five minuites, where he emptied the contents of his stomach all over the bar. With a fair amount going down his Manchester United shirt.

Oh how I laughed.

Kronenbourg Blanc.

What the f*** is that all about?

it's about £3.50 a pint

stupid, just stupid

on a happier note, the Flowers in The Conqueror is particularly nice at the moment - and I like watching the ladies in there pull the pints - they are very special

 

[CHAPPERS]

Oh and while I'm here there are soe very nice American beers brewed in local micro brewerys, you just have to find it.

And Budweiser from the tap is a decent, refreshing summer pint.

FACT.

So is water. FACT.

Labatts (Canadian piss)

and anything that has "Lite" on the label

 

[Hunting 784561]

Not all US beers are pisswater, for example Sam Adams is a fine american pint, especially if you can find their IPA .

I also can also just about remember drinking heavily in a converted speakeasy in New York last time I was there, where they served locally brewed english style bitter in pints, with an ABV of 7.5%.

 

[Croydonbloke]

I can`t remember the name of it but i was in Tunisia in 1993 and i had a beer in the Hotel and believe me it was bloody horrific. It amde me reach.

 

[Barnet Seagull]

Bad beer to me is a pint you'd turn down. I'd be willing to go to the bar and get my own if I was bought Carling, Carlsberg, Holsten Pils or Becks.

 

[Man of Harveys]

Actually, Dover's fine anecdote above reminds me of the diarrhoea masquerading as Harveys that the old bloke who used to run the pre-makeover George Beard would dish up.

His catchphrase soon become "if you were blind, you'd think there was nothing wrong with that," as he held up a glass containing what looked like the water that squaddies have to wade through on obstacle courses.

Is this before it becmae the Eagle again. MoH. If so I remember a few conversations like this when me and Krispies used to go for an afternoon bender.

Certainly was. The only man ever to have thrown me out of a pub, for singing. Apart from the fact that it was always empty so you could get a seat to watch football, that pub had no redeeming features at all, yet I went there all the time.

The stereo that did not work, half clean toilets. Oh lovley days.
