Ask him WHICH PART of the South East, though.
Fucking Portsmouth is in the South East - that does not stop it from being one of the most God-forsaken hellholes on earth.

My grandad would walk out and leave that on the bar at £2.60

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 5 Feb 2010, 14:20, Reply)

It's £2.25 for a good pint of it here
Or £1.90 for a decent pint.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Fri 5 Feb 2010, 14:21, Reply)

I'm sure its £2.40 in the Lion

Was £2.25 last time, I'm sure of it

I'd had about 2 hours sleep the night before
and had to play a gig. beer would not have been my friend at that point

What you needed was a restorative brandy, old chap

that would've not only knocked me out, but probably bankrupt me as well
right, I've just been looking for a way to record some guitar ideas on my phone for recording session tonight, and came across this memo that I had written myself at some point.

I have no recollection of it prior to this.

it does seem like that

You've gotta have a pint before you go on stage!
Regardless of how you feel!

I was drumming at a gig the other day and did a little sick in my mouth. I had no option but to swallow it - it wasn't so bad.

It got me thinking though, it would have been quite cool if it was a full-on massive puke and i'd carried on playing through it, all the time warm sick running down my front and onto my lap.

I'd have paid to see it.

A bit of vomit never stopped The Stooges.

Outdoing Moonie - some achievement.

What was that, 'orange juice boy'?

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 5 Feb 2010, 14:32, Reply)

Peroni is alright, decent on draught
They do a stronger version that I sometimes get in Pizza Express which is quite pokey. Beers to look out for, in no particular order

Innis and Gunn - Aged in whiskey barrels, soft and creamy. Look out for limited edition brews.
Fraoch - Scottish Heather Ale, crisp and refreshing, great Summer beer. www.williamsbrosbrew.com/beer.html
Grozet - Gooseberry beer, by the Fraoch buys. Fruity, tart and quaffable.
Alba - Same folk again, this time a 6.7% pine needle effort, best drunk like wine. Amazing stuff, very unique.
Liefmans Kriek (Cuvee Brut) - the most wonderful cherry beer, slightly sparkling, very tart. Just recently become available again, it comes wrapped in red paper and has a proper cork. Better than champagne.
Aventinus - Daddy fucking O. Wheat doppelbock, dark and mysterious. A whole myriad of flavours from banana to chocolate. My favourite beer of all time.
Trappist Rochefort 12 - 11.3%, beer of kings. Treat this bad boy like a meal. Brilliant for a dark winters day.

You really must come down to visit.
You'll probably get thrown out of my local for masturbating when you see the beer menu, mind...
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 5 Feb 2010, 14:46, Reply)

I seem to get thrown out of every pub for masturbating, beer menu or otherwise
It's a ruddy outrage, my little Smeagle wouldn't harm anyone. There are a few 'bierhalle' style places up here, it's just that they are prohibitively expensive. I have done, on many occassions, bought a load of beers from the beer deli, and hosted my very own beer festival. The plus side of that is, I can toke and i can masturbate, till it goes black.

Wunderbar

Have you tried Mango Beer from the
Zerodegrees micro brewery in Bristol? (I think you can get it elsewhere)

It is magnificent.

In fact, you've just reminded me how delicious it is and I'm going to buy some this very evening. Thanks!
(Colonel Santiago Introduced surprised kitty to the world., Fri 5 Feb 2010, 14:54, Reply)

Sounds good, I hope it isn't too sweet and sickly though?

(Cancer Joy was short lived, Fri 5 Feb 2010, 14:58, Reply)

Fraoch is god
I tried it at a beer festival a couple of years back, was blown away.
( Agnostic Antichrist Baltimora, Fri 5 Feb 2010, 15:07, Reply)

Yes, it is very nice, distinct.
However, wait till you try the Alba, it will blow you away, chase after you, then stamp on your balls.
