That Eiken beer is gorgeous, only one pub in town sells it. Nice dark oak beer, hard to be beaten for taste.

I'll stick to Grolsch though.

yup

"Bock Artios" was removed to launch the "Eiken"

Artois Bock bites the dust - Morning Advertiser

bock was 6.2%

i bet you any money that "stella black" is just "bock" with a bit more water in LOL

Is it just me that gets a nasty headache from Stella? Every other beer it's a generalised hangover, but one or two Stella's really thumps my noggan

I did used to drink Ayingerbrau in my local Samual Smith's pub, and although stronger than Stella, wouldn't give me the headache either...

3% isn't really that bad now as if you look on most of the bottles and cans they are all getting weaker ? I think most that were 5% are now down to 4%. I think its rare to find a 5% drink now ???

Rolling Rock, about 3-4%

Woodpecker Cider 3.5% (only sweet cider commercially available)

Why does everyone insist that cider has to be dry ffs, it tastes sh*te when

its dry

Bitter, used to be Tanglefoot, 5% but i havn't touched a bitter in years

spirits, now thats a differnt matter
