And tbh, the Kronenbourg over here is shite as well.

 

Stella has gone down hill too, probably because they've reduced it's ABV. On the plus side, Peroni is becoming common - surprisngly good on draft imo.

Imported Stella is nice (but hard to get), UK stuff is shit imo. Italian place near me does a canny pint of draught Peroni as it happens.

Which Belgian Beer does it remind you of CT?

 

 

Which one would you like me to say Alex so you can have a good old sneer down your very long snobby trout :lol:

 

Leffe gets the most hits on Google. :icon_lol:

Have just discovered the delights of Carlsberg Special Brew, from a can.....

 

Cant believe it has the taste of a freshly poured draught Belgian beer.

 

As a pub Kronnenburg drinker who hates the normal home tin offering I am delighted to have made its aquaintance.

I assume you're taking the piss?????????? :razz:<_< <_<

 

If you're not you need to go the whole hog, buy yourself a Rangers top wear it for 20 days without wash or shave a sit at the bottom of Pink Lane outside the Subway, and you've ticked all the boxes.

 

 

They may mock but like me I guess the mockers havent actually tasted it.

 

I know its been around a while but it certainly has a very nice "draught" tatse compared to normal tins. However I had failed to notice the 9% alcohol on the side and woke up with a very sore head today so will be limiting future home drinking.

 

I challenge anyone to try a tin before posting more mockery. :rolleyes:

 

:icon_lol:

 

You liked it because the alcohol content would have given you a that warm euphoric feeling - that's why bamps drink it. But to compare it to a real Belgian beer is simply ludicrous. Have you ever tasted a proper Belgian beer?

 

I liked it because it tasted like a freshly poured draught and not like the usual tinny tasting flat stuff that comes out of tins.

 

I would bet very good money that you havent even tried it. :razz:

 

Not since I was a student, no. Can't believe I'm having this conversation. :lol:

 

 

So thats another no :rolleyes:

It's not like, it's a yes. I can fully remember the taste and consistency of special brew and the taste of real Belgian beer. Still can't believe this conversation. :razz:

Kwak - loopy juice.

Remember when Bier Rex used to be behind the Civic? (It's some shitty student bar now). Beer heaven. They used to do that there.

 

Went to Bruges a while back with and was well into the which resulted in falling into/onto a tabe full of food in a fairly plush restaurant - bad kwak like..........

 

I also love altbeer. Native to the Dusseldorf area (at least that's where I had it). Struggle to get it over here - the closest I got to it was Brooklyn lager weirdly enough.

Went to Bruges (or Brugge :icon_lol: ) mesel last year. Fancy going back and taking in Ghent as I never got the chance to see it. Went to Brussels as well.

We stayed for 3 days which was more than enough as you could do the touristy bit in a day to be honest. Unless your just going for the beer of course.

 

There's an awesome pub which had the widest selection of beers I've ever seen. It was down a side street and unless you know it's there you'd never find it - the entrance is a shop front. If you can stand the real ale crowd then its well worth a look. The mrs even liked it as they had all sorts of fruit beers on offer.

 

I'll try and remember the name.

Gemmill's favourite, aptly enough. I think I know the place you mean but we didn't actually go in as it was too busy. It was recommended in the Lonely Planet. On a side street, if you head away from the main square on the road towards the station, then turn right.
