    Stick to Beer & malts really, occasional cider on a hot day. Don't really drink wine now as I think it adds the weight, I find gin pretty stinking.

      Had a real bad experience with it as an 18-year-old. Still can't get a whiff of aniseed without aftershocks.
      WHS, spent a cold night outside a party barfing with poisoning from this stuff, cost me a score as well. Smell still takes me back....

          Definitely not foul muck
          Then it's a cask, not a keg. The contents of a keg (in modern parlance) are dispensed by top pressure.

            Southern Comfort, very unwell from that when I was about 17.

            Anything Aniseed flavoured, I've always hated the taste.

              Actually it's a Fass. As far as I can tell they use the same word for both types here.
              While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                  Then I had a pint of the stuff in Ireland (Enis IIRC) and WOW!!!! big difference.
                  In Ireland they can get away with making it with fresh cream, however when exporting Guinness they have to use pasteurised stuff

                      Rauchbier (the stuff you get in Franken,) some types taste of bacon, disgusting but I still drank enough of it! Apart from that I'll drink nearly anything although I'm not keen on red wine (except in food) or some dark spirits (except in food.) Had Absinth with Champagne the other day, believe I lost the use of my legs for a while
                      Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.
