BEER!!!!!!!!!

[moped boy]

thanks ( i think ) i already got the spelling thing (le mans) and i but a teen, with a hell of a lot of drinking before me! whoot!

[Lorry]

I wouldn't drink anything that had anything to do with monks, quiet or not.

Kanterbrau has always been a preference as its not as sweet as Kronenbourg, and usually cheaper.  

I suspect that this is my imagination as if you search the web you'll see that Kanterbrau are owned by Kronenbourg, who are owned by Scottish and Newcastle.  I.e. its Fosters, not Heineken

Anyone for a Becks?

[Lorry]

Das belgische Brauunternehmen Interbrew übernahm im Jahr 2002 die Brauerei Beck & Co.

I think this means that Becks is really Heineken.

Anyone for Shepherd Neame?

[DavidsDad]

I must say I thought that was a brilliant post Mr Z.  

You're not a teacher, by any chance,are you?  I've known a few, (and must admit to being one myself, many moons ago.  ( I escaped though, got out under the wire one fine summer's eve...)

Further research reveals that
33, Pelforth, Fischer & Amstel are all Heineken too

There is no such thing as French beer

[jpchenet]

its 2 euros a case cheaper and when you've had 20 bottles you cant tell the difference between stella/kronenbourg and the cheap stuff anyway.

I beg to differ!!!!!!

All this  talk of Beer has made me thirsty. Looks like the campsite tours are going to fulfil my taste buds with variety and the liver will love me to death!!

We had three barrels of homebrew last year. Don't qite know what the strength was, but it certainly made you fall over!
And it cost about 20p a pint

[Robspot]

Calm down dear, it's only a website.

The point is, Moped boy my lad, is that you are conversing here with a load of seasoned, top-league, hardened drinkers. We have been there, seen it, drunk it and fallen over it since before you were even so much as a twinge in your dad's groin.

People on this famous forum have been shot at, arrested, chased down the street and across fields, chased by gays with no trousers on through the woods, broken limbs, fallen into ditches, been stripped naked, had their genitals written on, ended up in hospitals, thrown out of pubs, clubs, bars, chemists, casinos, McDonalds and all manner of other establishments, been found upside down in wheely bins, thrown up all over themselves, shat themselves, pissed themselves  and goodness knows what else, all as a result of drinking. And that was just at pre-qualifying. I myself have been known to drink enough to kill a goat.

Thusly we are hardly likely to be impressed with the drinking yarns of a fourteen year old three-pot screamer. What I am trying to say, in the nicest possible way, is that you should not be trying to teach your Grandmother to suck eggs. Or your Grandfather how to drink beer.

That said, your presence on the forum is most welcome, and quite you clearly have the makings of very fine Le Mans (note spelling!)  material in the years to come. Think of it like being in the "Liverpool Bootroom", your apprenticeship. Certainly if you persevere and learn from your elders and betters, with any luck you'll have threadveins on your nose and acid reflux disease by the time you're thirty. Stick with it, watch and learn and know your place in the pecking order and my son, someday you shall be Alpha Male too.

Salut!  

That's extremely philosophical Mr Zarse. Have you been at the absinthe?

[BigH]

Way to go Mr Zarse! You missed out flagpoles and tarry thighs though.

Has anyone ever seen their grandmother suck eggs? It's good grounds to get her out the house and put in a pool table if you ask me. What happens after they're sucked?

Maybe it's not eggs. Maybe Grandads in on it. And the local dentist. Why, at her advanced age does she need teaching anyway, and who's going to teach her? Another Grandmother? Is there an Sucking Grandmothers Community somewhere?

Has Andy Wallace got a drive?

[tink]

personally i'd just go with the cheapest they have -

Bloody students!  

ok could we stop with the student jokes. its wearing a bit thin ok?
