bad
bearpookie, lager is of the piss, real ale is for men.

men with beards

men with pipes

men with little oil rags tucked into the top pocket of boiler suits.

morris dancers.

look, real ale is an english heritage and there are hundreds of bloody gorgeous beers out there, if only you can get past the "warm piss" idiocy.

I'm not a real man
I'm a woman and love real ale

good
if you have a nose in the calendar in May we are planning a trip to the Cambridge real ale festival, you are more than welcome

Yep
It's a bit far to know, but I'm trying!

It really does taste rank.
I drink decent lager, decent red, or decent cider. Bitter tastes like fucking washing up liquid. Sos.

horses for courses
I guess.

I have managed to convert most of my lager drinking heathens into real alers

Green king IPA is piss though, i'll agree with that

Real ale does not taste like piss
Lager tastes like piss.

Real ale tastes like the contents of a mop bucket that's just been used to clean a sawmill.

They both make you nice and giddy though.

Nahhh
Much prefer a nice ale over a nice lager!

Ale is much better!
I won't drink in a Wetherspoons on principle though. Not even if you paid me.

If you go there regardless, just think as you sup your pint that a proportion of the profits is funding the BNP, and feel ashamed.

Their chairman's name is Tim Martin
and it would appear that it's UKIP that he gives lots of money to, not the BNP, but that's nearly as bad.
(Binary Solo loves a bit of algebra, Thu 30 Oct 2008, 14:08, closed)

Well
that UKIP. It's not racist or anything. They just want UK not being part of Europe. I don't share their view, but can understand it.

Or is there anything else that they don't mention in their webpage?

oh, they pretend not to be big old racists
but they are really. I expect the BNP's website doesn't say they're racist either! (but I'm not going to look at it at work...)

mmmmm
That's not good, then. (I looked at it at work... I didn't know it was so bad. I hope nobody noticed)

The Salford candidate for the BNP was having a beer in my local.
With his fucking bodyguard. I called both of them cunts, and the managers got involved. After explanations,, they got told to leave. Ha.

There's a way to settle this...
Weather cold or wet? Then ale.
Weather warm and sunny? Then lager.


Duh.

Don't you
try and pretend you're some sort of proper man with your tales of beer drinking. We all know you prefer a small glass of dry sherry to be brought to you by your turkish boy.
