Strongbow....or pear bulmers....or bulmers original?

Tiamaria and coke, bailey, water, lemonade, G&T, water, coke (no diet allowed!), water?

Rather thin custard?

[Derby Tup]

Rather thin custard?

Sounds better than water!

[OneHillWonder]

Yuk! No cider for me.

The other sound ok though

I tried some Sneck Lifter last night for the first time ever

I didn't like it

Whtever will I drink?!

All those high %age ales are rank, i had a pint of Ferkin Dogbolter once and i could have fuelled my car with it, bollox...black sheep all the way

Quite agree. Snecklifter = paint stripper. However, we can rejoice in the fact that there are plenty of fine ales available in Keswick toon

I agree and just how many beers have to have the word (ho, ho, ho) ferkin (ho, ho) in their name . Mind you I don't much like black sheep either. Putting my beer drinker's beard on for one moment I do like Jennings bitter and their next one up the scale (cumberland?) but all sneck lifter is likely to do is fraggle my brains and make me easy prey to any wicked harpy on the prowl . I also like bluebird bitter of course.

Since we're on the subject, I'll own to not being too keen on Snecklifter either, and to preferring lager over real ale (you can take the boy out of the south...). I hope by saying this now all the p**s-taking will be over and done with by the 19th!

So it'll still be the beer of choice for the evening then?

[OneHillWonder]

Love real ale

Just not Sneck Lifter

I like the pale ones best

Sounds like you should be having some Jennings Cocker Hoop then
