Deuchers IPA
All Tesco Lager
Bulmers
Jacques
Newcastle Browne Ale
Woodpecker
etc.
etc.
etc.


Don't work in a Brewery though. Am in a nice plush office in Edinburgh where we have a bar as the reception.

Fancy sending a care package to me. Lables would need to be coke or similar though and hope the RAF dont do a taste test

Nice

Heineken
Sol
Amstel

I knew the rest were brewed here but that's another bunch of fancy 'foreign' lagers that aren't actually foreign.

Anyway I digress what were we ing about

Put me down for a beer its almost 5pm

Amstel. Why is Amstel some p*ss weak 4.1% tasteless sh** in this country, whereas in Greece its a nice 5.0%

ETA yes I know Amstel is Dutch, but it's a big beer in Greece and my favourite beer over there.

Amstel tastes rank in most of the world.

Its sh** here. But I've been drinking it in Greece since I was 10 18, and I like it.

Damn you Bob. I don't normally drink during the week, but all this talk of beer has made me crack one open

Heineken is only brewed on the continent.
We only do Sol now because Heineken took over a mexican company.
Agree....not an Amstel fan.

We do a beer called Zipfer over in Europe that is awesome but we can't get it here.

Anyway, back to ranting!!!

Worked until 12:40 last night and was in the office at 07:45 this morning. I don't usually get out of bed until 8:10am so I'm a bit cranky! (queue jokes/pictures) Doesn't look like today is going to be any better.

On a brighter note I got a UCL branded 12pack sitting on my desk this morning and a branded glass.
