I find Peroni is a bit meh, but it's all personal taste.
Some lagers can be OK though, I'll grant you. There's a couple of quite decent Greek ones I'm partial to on holiday, but most of the commercially touted ones in this country are too gassy for me and I end up with a seriously bad head. The same is true of that evil piss water John Smith's; it's got more fucking chemicals in it than you do at a weekend. Hideous, vile stuff.

Grolch is alright. I'd still rather have a decent cask ale any day.

You are quite correct. Don't listen to anyone who tries to tell you otherwise.

The most disappointing feeling in the world*
is going into a bar and being faced with a choice of Fosters, John Smiths or Guinness. And a range of tiny bottles of imported lager at a ridiculously inflated price.

*may be a slight exaggeration

DOWN WITH NITRO KEG SCUM!

Similarly
"Hi mate, what cider do you have?"
"We have Blackthorn on tap, and bottles of Woodpecker and Magners"
*sighs* "Gin and tonic please"

At least you get a decent pint at the Tap and Spile, eh?
Even if the landlady does limit you to two pints of the stuff.

She's right to limit it
It was bloody tasty but deceptively lethal.

Responsible landladying right there.
Margot's great.

God, I could fancy a pint in the Tap right now.
Sadly, the combination of freezing weather and black ice on the roads is something of a deal breaker on that score.

I could go for one too
But the bazillions of miles distance puts that idea to bed.

Maybe some other time.
We're thinking about possibly having a bash at ours again in April.

WHAT REALLY HAPPENS:
"Hi mate, what cider do you have?"
"You know gay night's tomorrow, right"
*sighs* "Oooh get you"

Pretty sure more gayers do coke than drink cider
Also, more salesmen/ad execs/consultants/lawyers do coke than drink cider.

best lager I have ever had was a Russian one
strong, came in pint bottles and was a one off deal at my local cheap booze emporium.

Fucking lovely stuff, £15 for 20 pints I think it was. Fuck knows what it was called though.
