Default Lads and beer-drinking ladettes

What are you having beer-wise every Friday for the rest of your life (I won’t make the hypothetical scenario cruel and subjugate anyone to just one beer for the rest of their lives, just Fridays) if you had to pick one?

I do love a good San Miguel. The only thing is that I prefer it to be on-tap. The canned stuff doesn’t vibe with me for some reason. Bottled San Miguel is marginally better than the tinnies.

Estrella of those but it's not the best selection. My friends and me have a 5 tier system for larger. It's a source of much debate but generally something like:

Tier 1 - Asahi, Moretti, Camden Helles, Peroni etc
Tier 2 - Madri, Estrella, Pravha, Staropramen etc
Tier 3 - San Miguel, Stella, Heineken etc
Tier 4 - Amstel, Carling, Kronenbourg etc
Tier 5 - Carlsberg, Fosters

Not fosters anyway that's for sure. Cheeky sods have lowered the alcohol by 3 percent without telling us.


Dont mind a bit of Eatrella on a friday night.

Stella.

Corrs is a decent tipple too.

To be honest. If it's wet and makes you drunk, I'll sup it.

Obviously that doesn't include Bud light, which is boycotted.

Stella’s a drink I just swerve because of the reputation of it being a wife-beater’s drink. I don’t know why that saying’s come about when there are stronger beers that don’t necessarily mess people up (Bira Moretti, probably even Peroni) but it’s not a beer I’ve ever particularly liked the taste of (even by beer’s standards) so I didn’t find it hard to abstain from it.

By the way, isn’t Peroni supposed to be quite expensive these days especially?

I'd rather have mushroom soup.

And when I say mushrooms, I mean mushrooms.

Polish beer’s a bright spark, too. There are times when I’ve bought tinnies of the stuff (8.5%) for buddies just to relish the wasted look on their face when they finish the whole thing. I’d only do it now for people who are worth it but at the particular time it was fun.

It helps that they’re dirt-cheap, but they’re quality.

I can imagine you treating pubs like it’s pre. July 2007. I don’t see any Scottish parmy getting kicked out for smoking without putting up a good whiskey-fuelled argument.
