    Bulk beer. The weather blows (again), so can't really go outdoors, either. Sigh.

    Jeremiah Weed Sour Mash Brew...

    Hard to describe, label says it's 'fruit alcohol' and it has a sort of sweet cider taste, only more earthy with a bourbon kick.

    It's not cider, it's Perry... Cider = Apples, Perry = Pears... is it really so hard? [i know it says cider on the bottle... doesn't make it any less annoying...] :wallbash::wallbash::wallbash:

    Being from the states, I have to say that Europe has vastly superior beer...just got into the Delerium family and it's wonderful :)

    Also....thank you UK for Strongbow!! Seriously...it's amazing

    I'm afraid your slightly wrong as perry comes from a specific pear but pear cider is a mix of pears and apples.

    I used to love helping my dad with his homebrew wine, I wouldn't mind doing something like this, however I dont have anywhere to put it that my 'into everything' 2 year old can get to it. So thats out of the question

    I am currently making my way through "1001 Beers You Must Try Before You Die" and have had some very nice beverages.

    However, if I am not searching for beers on the list, my current go to beer is Brewdog's Punk IPA.
    Really into high IBU's at the moment.

    Managed to find Hobgoblin in Tesco, very nice. Picked up some Fruli (strawberry beer*) and Innis & Gun Rum finish, some pre mixed mojitos and daquiris, crabbies....

    Just had a nice bottle of Speckled Hen. May be fairly common, but it's still a very tasty brew...

    Oh boy... if you like Strongbow there are dozens of Ciders that will blow your effin mind. Rattler is a locally made one to myself and one of my favourites. If you cant import anything decent come down to the southwest on a holiday! Have a scumpy. :)

    when I was in michigan.. they had a lot of local breweries brewing beer at 9%

    remember one I liked called dirty bas.tard.. was strong but didn't taste as bad as the others
