The rain, it raineth every day
Told me to take the newspaper off the bar as it was 'getting in the way' - there were about five people in the bar. Haven't been back since, there's better, friendlier pubs around.
Salted Caramel Stout from Fallen Brewing in bonnie Stirling.
Another one that's too sweet for my liking. They did recommend a nip of scotch with it so I've done just that. See you in the single malt thread.

That's just up the road from me, their First Class Rendezvous and Big Raspberry Dog Chew beers are excellent.
Just had a look at the website, they've got some excellent sounding brews. They got a tap?

No, it's basically a large shed, but they do have some great beers. I've tried loads of them, but never on draught, just actually realised that.
Thnx v much for this

Excellent choices all. Weihenstephaner is another excellent wheat. It, Franziskaner and Live Oak are my go to options.
Also agree with you on Unibroue - La Fin du Monde and Trois Pistoles being my faves.

Dylan's Beer thread is too old for me to reply, but I wanted to see what you guys drink and like. Tell me about your favorites.

Ahh, been looking for this thread. Wanted to write up my top five beers, but having trouble with that. Need more sampling I think. I'm a lightweight myself, 1 good beer is the limit if I'm driving, 2 might put me to sleep. I suppose if I drank Coors Light it could be more, but who really wants to drink that trash?
So my favorite drinks are:
1. Franziskaner: the first beer I fell in love with and still my favorite wheat beer. Sometimes a little too heavy on a hot American summer day, but always very high quality.
2. Sam Adams. Simple and beautiful, the American beer. Always, always good.
3. Liefmans Goudenband. My first belgian sour, blew my mind. Still trying to comprehend this brew. Nothing bad about this one, if you can find it.
Not sure which take spots #4 and #5, but I like almost anything brewed by Montreal's Unibroue.
La Fin du Monde is very good
but Maudite is probably better
If I had to revisit my top five today, probably something like this:
1) la fin du monde, only grown in my love for this
2) franziskaner, still fabulous
3) three philosophers, a beautiful quad and everything ommegang brews is really nice
4) christmas bomb by prairie, if you’re drinking a $10 per bottle beer, make it this (also a very good brewer)
5) probably something lighter here, love street by karbach is very drinkable
Just tried Sierra Nevada’s Narwhal and that’s very good, malty and spicy for an imperial stout, easier for me to drink than most.
Bell’s (insert joke here) also makes nice stuff, only recently introduced in my area

The Krombacher and Paulaner wheats are my favourites at the moment. Not that easy to get hold of from supermarkets though and end up buying cases of it from some overpriced wine merchant place in West Kirby. Any one have any ideas where else sells it in Liverpool or The Wirral?

So Fi and Dom took over the Tap and then went onto run Punch Tarmeys next door , However They both eventually the company . They’re now both back at the Tap and have took it over themselves so next week will be opening that as their own boozer .
Dom and Fiona are both great licensees in their own right and I expect it'll be a great success, although I hope it's not overly influenced by the Baltic crowd.
I was a regular in the Tap before its unfortunate demise so I'm looking forward to it hopefully being a great pub again - Okells on cask hopefully!

Welcome back Wayne
Had a fair few of these yesterday and for me it's a great session ale.
Do you take it with ice......
