Heard the same. If you drink it with the "perfect pour" then its supposedly great.

I've bought Guinness with the "widget" inside to supposedly make the perfect pour, but to me, its just another strong dark beer. I've had that before.

Bear in mind this is coming from someone whos never travled, so Im judging by my Canadian expeience.

Only place I've been other than Canada is the States. Hawaii once, Houston once, and Idaho once, although I've joined a crew who go there every year so I plan more trips. Regardless, as much as Ill talk up Canadian beer, Coors OG is the best stock beer I've drank, and they dont sell it in Canada

Frost brewed liner bro, frost brewed liner.

The widgets help make store-bought Guinness taste somewhat fresh, but it's still nothing like getting it out of the tap in Dublin.

How do Canadians feel about Labatt Blue? That used to be one of my beers of choice in college when I couldn't spend too much, but didn't want the ultra-cheap crap either.

Labatt Blue? I havent drank too much of it since I stick with Kokanee as my stock beer, then mess around with fancy beer on the side, but I think its a good beer.

I know a few of my buddies drink it from time to time, and they seem to like it. For a stock, I'd say its pretty good.

By stock beer, I mean a popular beer you can walk into a store and buy a 24 pack without having to search stores.

On another note, damn do I ever miss being able to walk into a walmart, get some beef jerky, a video game, and a flat of Coors OG.
Canada needs to put beer in consumer stores like the states.

Guinness used to be my beer of choice after a heavy drinking session and I just wanted a nice slow down drink. I have kinda grew out of that stage which has left me slightly disliking Guinness and for no apparent reason.. One day am sure I will aquire the taste again. Certainly every citizen from the age of 30+ in the UK would list Guinness as one of there favourite beers/water :biggrin:

What are your guys opinion on Indian beer? I mentioned the beautiful taste of Bangla before and there is also Cobra which is rather nice aswell.

Steamwhistle is made in TO. It's pretty good but overpriced.

Becks is a fine brew, especially in a half litre can. Stella sucks. Kirin's ok, Sap is crap.

Sammysummer · 05-10-2007, 08:07 AM

coffee right now.

I used to drink the becks half litres as they were the cheapest beer around, nowadays I wont touch the stuff it has a horrible after taste.

We must have very different beer tasting buds..

shookem · 05-10-2007, 08:15 AM

I should clear that up.

Becks is a fine beer if you're drinking a different beer after. Maybe a lowenbrow, holstein or warstienger ( i probably spelt all those wrong).

**Porn Player** · 05-10-2007, 08:28 AM

Well lowenbrow has an umlaut over the first O i think.

Warsteiner ... Quality beer and great from a keg.

**Yao Mania** · 05-10-2007, 09:29 AM

checking in as promised... 5 vodka sodas, 1 white wine. Party wasn't great but met some cute girls. Best thing is I didn't spend a penny, boo yah

Im not a huge fan of Steamwhistle. I've got a hang over and my girls coming over tonight so Im having a steamwhistle to try and beat the hang over, hair of the dog that bit you.

Thinking of maybe getting some Strongbow tonight. I love having that every once in a while to switch it up.

**Lynx** · 05-10-2007, 05:38 PM

Propel.

I pick up my fiance from the airport at 11:30 so I better wake the **** up.
