So OK, Guinness tastes alright to me, but be honest... does beer actually taste as good as Coke or Coffee?
NZ beer is pish. UK ales are amazing. Next time you're across we'll introduce you to some of the best ones.
I've got a research idea. Why not get everyone doing Tim's suggested pub crawl at the next gathering? The idea is that everyone chugs down the suggested ales and gives each a rating, and the ratings are then averaged. As a control, everyone also rates both Cola and Coffee as well. See what comes out on top.
After chugging down multiple ales , I may have acquired new tastes
Which beer do you usually drink?
