carling is piss. it comes out stronger than it went in. horrible stuff, would have expected better from a german

think it is the best beer in england, though i prefer german beer, of course ;-)

Overpaid? You better believe it! Sure I could be paid better (and will be when my automatic raise kicks in in a couple months), but I am making almost double what most of my co-workers make for doing the exact same job (although I have a few more responsibilities). The store isn't even very busy.

Can't get Carling here, unfortunately, but I learned while doing a paper on the globalization of the beer industry that Carling is the #2 brewer in England and is owned by Coors. So, all that profit goes to a bunch of Republicans... heh.



I know too much about beer companies these days. It's sick knowing where my money is heading (in some cases, Philip Morris.... grrr.....)



Eyes, any German beers in particular you recommend? I've never been too impressed by German beer. Too pure, not enough character. Although Holsten Festbock is a value-drinking selection. But I'm openminded, so suggest away!

it annoys me that the brixton, birmingham, glasgow blah blah blah academy is named after a really poor larger. they put the carling name before football, now they are putting the carling name before music. its a crap alcoholic drink that will get nowhere without endorsement

said sneaker on his 6th can of stella. now the brixton stella academy has a certain ring to it!!!!

Mmmm. Stella.

Mmmm. Stella.

Mixed vodka drinkies this evening. Gettin' my holiday spirit on.



My son's away with the grandparents this weekend - I have no idea what to do with myself...

We should have a drunk thread. Kind of like what we did on leap year, see how many people are logged on at the same time. But we'll all be inebriated. Come on, it's all fun and games before someone ends up falling into their computer monitor!

DELETED

Well, maybe in a couple of hours. I'm not drunk yet! :P



I don't know if this could work. Different time zones n'all...



This place needs a "pub" forum!

DELETED

brixton on the 18th or 19th suits me. how many are going to that gig besides chem'd up and myself. but yeah a future meet up is required.

Carling is complete shit, the worst of the popular lagers sold in pubs. It tastes weak and is cheap which is why it is popular.



And whirly, ever thread is my drunk thread ;)

beck's, of course (as i am from bremen where it is brewed). holsten is good as well. astra, that is excellent but should be impossible to be bougth anywhere out of germany.



do not drink: k�lsch and erdinger, the bavarian beer :x

Well that's a given. You're just a wandering, swaggering drunk! ;)

I mean.. the REAL chems forum meeting :o

i.e. us comin` to some place in some country at some point of time in future.. or maybe gather together to meet and go to some Chems gig.. that'd be one of the most amazing experiences..

A real meet-up would be fun. Difficult to plan, and could be very expensive too.



Experiencing a Chems show with other people you know who share the same love for them is a great, great thing!

If it were to happen i'd expect you all to come to me. I'm not travelling to meet that bastard chemd'up ;)

At least the Carling Cup isn't worth crap!!! Actually, I shouldn't say that, 'cause it's the only thing my Reds are likely to win this year. Especially considering their derby performance today. To think I got up at 6 AM to watch the game.... grrr...... I think I need a beer. Maybe I'll go get a carryout a little later.

I've had Erdinger, but that was at a beerfest I have only fuzzy memories of. It's amazing how 6 oz. sample cups of beer add up when you have 44 of them in less than 3 hours..... Now there's at least one restaurant in the city that I can't go back to due to having thrown up on the table..... X-D



I wasn't that impressed with Beck's the last time I had it, but the bottle I had was skunked, I think. Over here it's easy to get Beck's, Holsten, DAB (bleh! this was the one I had in mind when I said characterless), Erdinger, Paulaner, Warsteiner, and a few dodgy looking ones like Black Baron and the like. And of course, a variety of Austrian beers are available.



The German beer that interests me at the moment is EKE, an 11.3% strong lager. }:-) That would make it the second strongest beer I've tried. Saving it for a week where I don't have exams.
