Have you seen the one with a swimming pool full of custard, and then they run over the top as the properties are the same as cornflour?
I dream of a day when we can use custard in our jacket for armour......and then after a long day in the saddle, tired and hungry, just unzip and consume!   :popcorn:

Ahh that was my opinion too dave until I did route 66. Some mighty fine micro breweries out there to be had and plenty of dark beers too!

I agree. Have had some excellent brews in the USA. Budweiser et al are just as dull as any UK lager though.

I wouldn't have considered any of those brands "great British Ale"     :mfr_lol:   

Wot yer need is some proper Northern ale down yer neck  ...John Smiths, Black Sheep, Theakstones, puts hairs on yer chest, makes you stong in the arm, weak in the head and especially active in the bed    :mfr_lol:

I'm a member of York Brewery. Guzzler is, without question, the best beer in the world  :gunsmilie:

I consider most AB beers to be trash.  Unfortunately they've bought out my favorite brewery/beer (Devil's Backbone/Vienna Lager).  I cried the whole day when I heard that and am still angry over it, but the owners sold out for something....probably money and distribution.  It's all downhill from there.  The brand will die of a thousand cuts over time.  AB can even ruin their own beer, Michelob.  Used to be one of my favorites.  I liked the bottle style, they got rid of it.....bunch of  :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored: :censored:.
