Lager (or similar)suggestions please.
 

Hi

I'm helping to organize a relative's wedding in July. There will be plenty of lager drinkers and I'm assuming it will be a hot day so people will have their thirst on!

The main lager will be good old Stella but I'd like to add one or two interesting choices (not the usual stuff ie Peroni, Corona etc) and would welcome some suggestions.

Personally I don't really like Singha, Tiger, Cobra etc so they are out.

Thanks

What about a blond beer, a Leffe or something similar to that.

I like wife-beater as the primary choice :D

...anything not brewed in this country.

I love the little cans of Heineken. Warstiener in bottles is as good as it gets.

http://www.majestic.co.uk/beer have a good selection.

A blonde beer could be done but not Leffe as you see it in quite a few pubs, I want something a bit more unusual.

But I agree, you can't beat a cold Nelson Mandela!

Best lager in the World (it won that award) is Sharps Pilsner; it's absolutely bloody lovely and brewed just up the road; they might stock it near you but if not, call to see where you can get some. Most Tescos stock it.

Trust me, you will love it and so will all your guests.

Thanks, I've never had Warstiener. There is a Majestic near me but I'm assuming they only sell by the case? I need to test the beers (it's a hard life) so need to be able to buy singles or small packs.

Thanks. I'll try and pick some up today from Tesco and taste it tonight.

Watneys party seven

Stella has to be the proper imported stuff - brewed in belgium

No the comedy imitation rubbish brewed under license by whitebread

San Miguel?

Produced by Carlsberg, in Northampton!

Warstiener or Bitburger are both very nice

An alternative is Curious Brew http://www.chapeldown.com/curious-brew, very drinkable

TASTING NOTES

We use East Anglian malt, saaz and cascade hops, then re-ferment using Champagne yeast before adding a "dosage" of the rare and fragrant Nelson Sauvin hop before cold filtering this unpasturised beer into bottle. Full-flavoured and well balanced with aromatic hoppy notes and a crisp refreshing finish.

I was at a wedding recently that was serving bottles of Doom Bar as the main beer. It's one of my favourites so I was happy

Tennants Super !!!!!!!!

My choices of which I usually drink

Modelo Especial - mexican
Delirium tremens - Belgium
Brugse Zot - Belgium
Vedett - Belgium
Bohemia - Mexican
Weihenstephan - German

Also brewed by Sharps but it's an ale. Their "Atlantic" pale ale is a sort of halfway house between lager and ale; also superb. Serve the lager ice cold, Atlantic cool but not as cold.

My wife's grandad built their industrial units (he still owns several next to it).

Estrella, Asai, Tsingtau.

Polish beer yum yum

Or Carlsberg Special Brew!

Of the various 'mass-market' offerings available in large supermarkets, Carlsberg Export is definitely the cleanest and best-tasting IMO.

Oh yes indeedy !!!! lol Getting my taste buds going !!!

Such a shame Davenports is no more. Their Top Brew Deluxe was like amber nectar

:lol::lol:


I was waiting to see how long before that got a mention :lol1:

Can recommend anything produced by these guys;

No idea if they will ship a single order to the mainland or not.

Yes, that Tyskie is very good too

But please, only the homeless should drink out of cans

Or a substitute for Peroni (which I do like) is Moretti

But please, whatever is chosen - bottles only

The Tesco everyday value range will offer your guests a rare treat. ;)

This might be worth consideration too;

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try and pick up a selection of the ones mentioned and sample them over the next couple of days.:thumb:

Delirium Tremens, is that for real??:lol1:

It is epic. Try it!
