Unpopular Opinions

This is supposed to be a thread about unpopular opinions.

 

Rather Guinness tbh.

Lager is acceptible if paired with a curry or similar and is supposed to represent the country of origin of the cuisine.

 

I would say the same about lager, but it’s probably a matter of taste (in the discernment sense). I strongly disagree that different gins, ales, whiskies and (dare I mention it?) cheese all taste the same.

 

Sorry, what? Please tell us more!

 

I don’t disagree with all the others, but when it specifically comes to a Gin and Tonic, 3/4 of the drink is the tonic water. When I make my OH a G&T at home she always takes a sip, then asks me if I’ve put Gin in it (which I always have, and a double at that) which suggests to me it’s the tonic doing most of the heavy lifting anyway, if you can’t even tell if the gin is in there.

 

awww, he looks delicious.

 

I've learned the hard way that I just want a decent, sessionable IPA (no man bun) and preferably gluten free. I've tried lots of fancy flavours and not only are most of them rank, but also, mixing them is a big mistake as a beer which might taste OK in isolation, will taste awful after you've just accustomed your palate to something completely different.

It's Vocation Heart and Soul or Beavertown Neck Oil for me.

 

Really? I know it's fashionable and available everywhere but I find it very meh. Not had Heart & Soul. I think for me the issue is it has to be a proper cask ale. This gas flow stuff is just fizzy and tasteless and ends up giving me a hangover without getting drunk enough to deserve one.

 

I used to be a real ale man, but it gives me the farts and the *****. I am an IPA man now. I can drink a couple of dozen cans without ill effect if paced correctly.

 

....and one day I will try it !

 

You’ve tried the ale though, shirley?

It’s top stuff.

 

Mmm, not convinced by these. Would rather have a German weissbier.

 

nope

 

You really need to.

 

Foo Fighters are absolute cack. A bland sixth form band with an iron grip on Kurt Cobain's coat tails.

 

Not the way I make it

 

When are you going to invite us round, @Lloyd? Me, @The undeniable truth, @a19tgg, @I Blame Bassett? Would be a right laugh.

 

Yep, count me in.

 

Good to get back to properly unpopular opinions.

 

Pop over now. I'll open a packet of nuts

 

The Foo Fighters are for children and Americans.

 

Real ale Guinness and all that nonsense is shyte
Fizzy lager all the way

 

YES.

 

Preach brother, though I do love a Guinness

 

Certainly unpopular, given it’s 100% wrong.

 

I will drink literally anything alcoholic.

 

Too fruity for me.

 

They're what people who go to Glastonbury to watch Kylie Minogue think is 'Rock Music.'

I think I've said before, they're marginally better than Nickelback, if only for their first album.

 

Which sort of nuts and how large is the bag ?
That sounds sexual but isn’t intended to.

 

I can just imagine the state of the bogs at CAMRA on a Monday morning

 

Weddings are generally always boring and far too formulaic, it doesn’t matter how much has been spent on them, they’re all the same and all dull.
