London Beers

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Weird. You can't go drinking because of football... whereas I can't play football anymore because of all the drinking.

Odd, eh?
Grrr. Argh.

Hopefully not, because when I finally get to Europe, I'm going to be showing up on all of these guy's doorstops begging for a place to stay for the night in exchange for a WST or two.

What kind of beer do you UK:ers drink when you are out to the pub?
Do you ever try Tuborg, Carlsberg, Heineken or some other foreign beer - or do you stick with domestic beers?
IF so; what "brand"?
Can't believe I'm still here.

We don't get Tuborg over here, but I am partial to both Carlsberg and Heineken. If I'm in the Midlands I'll drink Banks's or Highgate Mild (which is PROPER beer made in the Midlands) but when in London I tend to default to one of the aforementioned lagers. Can't drink Kronenberg on account of the head it gives me the next day. Stella's Ok.
