Rev Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Just in, Lowenbrau Oktoberfest special on Draft. 6.1%, dangerously drinkable, and the Stein was chucked in free with the barrels. Just need to sort out some lederhosen, pretzels, oompah musak and do my wurst! cstand 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Stella, gluten free from Tesco, proper Belgium lager that you won't find it in any of those hipster pubs. Even chucked in a knee for you all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Anybody drank “calvados” before ? think it’s a french Apple drink. I’ve won a bottle in a bet, googled it and it’s not cheap. If it’s good, I’ll drink it, if not could be a good Christmas present for someone ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calvados, bitters and a bit of maple syrup. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, as far as I'm concerned, meths is very, very drinkable. One thing about calvados - it gives me a ferocious headache, and it's pretty well the only booze that does. I put it down to the amygdalin in apple pips - it can release cyanide and other noxious substances in minute quantities - but as I said before, it's very drinkable, so minute quantities x vast amounts = quite a bit, so beware.

Thanks Eddie I’ll give it a go then. A drinkable cyanide as well! I’ll have it with some red bull ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a look for it at my tesco this morning but the shelves were bare on almost all craft beers. Has to settle for Clockwork orange and some old school Hoegaarden. The vocation cherry stout was 'reduced to clear' at £4.75. A whole 25p off the price last week ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First impression was like the first time you taste whisky (as a 10 year old)! Like Eddie says its good stuff (assuming the actual bottle is not the whisky equivalent of Teachers).

I googled it and it’s quite pricey so hopefully not. Going to try it tonight, was tempted to neck the bottle at about 10 o’clock last night to numb the pain!!!!!
