I don't like beer
especially not ale with a silly name. See also: Festering Ferret or whatever it's called.

I think your alternate question should be "what's the silliest named beer you've ever seen?"

Goddard Brewery's "Fuggle-Dee-Dum"
More to come when I remember them.

I don't think many people start off actually liking beer.
Which is one of the reasons that alcopops and ciders have been so popular. I think you're right about the names also, although there often is some reason behind them. I tend to avoid those who seem to have self consciously tried to be whacky or overly rustic. Of course you're quite at liberty to choose what you like to drink and I hope I'm coming across as speaking out of enthusiasm for the subject rather than being a patronising cock-a-knob, but have you tried anything like Hoegaarden, Leffe or Erdinger?
