A chairde!!!

Never - I insist, NEVER taste the shite that is called "Guinness made in Russia"...

The Heiniken had bought the rights to brew and to cane it in St.Peterbourg...

It's ugly! It's worse then any kind of local porters and the price is twice higher...

It's a cryin' shame...

I will keep that in mind next time at the watering hole

Jaysus that ought to be some sort of sin

Yeah, and St.Peterbourg is now renamed to Sin City!

Tss, what's all the fuss about?

In Belgium, it seems we're running out of Trappists because they're a hype in the USA! For 'once' I can perfectly understand them!

After Westvleteren got elected best beer in the world on http://www.ratebeer.com/beer/westvleteren-abt-12/4934/, now Westmalle Tripel has got elected best beer by the http://www.nytimes.com/2005/09/21/dining/21wine.html?pagewanted=1... For us Belgians that has always been evident of course... If you look at the NYT top ten, you'll see there are 8 Belgian beers in it... Get the picture guys?
Personally my top three is: 1. Westmalle; 2. Orval; 3. Chimay...

So you romantisize about Guinness? lol

Taste a Belgian beer, Sean, you'll want nothing else!

I was born with a 12 year old bottle of jameson's under one arm and the doctor threw some Guinness at my mouth just as I was comming out to make sure I could breathe...I'll stick with that for life thanks!

Do not teach the old dog new tricks, Christophe
I really love the Guinness taste best of all.

(And to steal Guinness pints from the pubs is kind of a local sport.)

How many do you have now?

Posted by: Patrick Sep 26 2005, 09:55 AM

As far as Belgian beer is concerned...... I think Christophe will have a very hard time convincing people in this forum that it tastes better than Guiness

Posted by: Sean Sep 26 2005, 10:07 AM

What do you mean - tricks?




Yeah, he gonna be a Belgian beer martyr

Posted by: Patrick Sep 26 2005, 10:20 AM

How many pints have you 'collected' so far?

Posted by: Sean Sep 26 2005, 10:26 AM

Well,.. a bit less then couple of dozens.
We do not count irish coffe cups and whisky glasses, right?

(And who knows how many pints were left after divorce 5 years ago!)

Seems Sean's visits to the pub are very 'fruitful'!





I don't have to convince: These are just facts...
I like a Guinness once in a while, but I couldn't imagine drinking it all night... I like to spare my bowels a bit, thank you! Kilkenny (Smithwicks) on the other hand...
Anyway, taste our beers and you'll only confirm!
I guess it's all a bit habits... Knowing my 'habits' are performed with the best 'goods' is really reassuring, not only for my bowels...
