I Love Good Beer

Ok anybody who likes a dark or strong beer here are my favourites from the UK:
XXXB
Old Peculiar
King Goblin (don't like the original Hobgoblin but this is so much better).
McEwan's Champion (bigger brewery but they've really nailed it with this one).
Shepherd Neame 1698

There are loads of good weaker(alcohol still great flavour) ones as well but these should take you down if you just like getting a 'buzz' on.

If anybody gets a chance at 'Whitechapel Porter' take it! It's not a favourite of mine but every so often I just fancy it. It has the taste of old leather suitcases which, maybe, they realised when they named it. (A chemist told me the flavour comes from an excess of tannin).

Germany taught me the value of good beer. Till then i was sold on American mass produced formaldehyde in a can.

So thank you taxpayers and the Soviets for enabling me to take a two year lesson in Germanys best.

Now here in the US the boom of micro brews has helped immensely. Im not a fan of the current IPA trend. Bock beer and other darks are my weakness. Tho a Pilsner goes over well.

My husband used to buy old ales to drink, he used to call pub beer 'chemical brews' maybe he was right, but real ales have a certain taste and character about them that is so much better.

i do not like IPAs either

I do my own too, the first one I made was an absolute beauty so I thought it was easy. 4 brews later some not so good and I still haven't reproduced the magic of that first one. What's the problem getting supplies 'Sigh' you in Saudi or something?

i like my home made.

though it's getting harder and harder to obtain my supplies.

:/

My favorite is OP beer. (other people's)

enjoy
