However, I do think anyone compiling a list of the best British beers is simply a complete prat. There can't be anyone has tasted a sufficiently large sample of all the beers available to be able to make a meaningful judgement.<BR/><BR/>That doesn't stop any of us from pontificating though, does it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-84916459463019166722008-01-13T03:30:00.000+00:002008-01-13T03:30:00.000+00:00http://realalenet.co.uk/aleblogs/realaleblog.php?t...http://realalenet.co.uk/aleblogs/realaleblog.php?title=50_best_beers_my_arse&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1<BR/><BR/>Its all there , its just blogger doesnt display it all because its to wide.Kieran Haslett-Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04562970144894398803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-90366082765395893812008-01-12T00:23:00.000+00:002008-01-12T00:23:00.000+00:00PaulIncomplete link I'm afraidPaul<BR/><BR/>Incomplete link I'm afraidTandlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804499573827044693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-62829112126408432962008-01-11T22:23:00.000+00:002008-01-11T22:23:00.000+00:00I totally agree with you Tandleman, lists are usua...I totally agree with you Tandleman, lists are usually bad news.

What's particularly stupid about this list, as already noted, is that it's essentially limited to bottled beers exported to the US. Having tasted British beers in Britain, live, and having over the years tasted a fair number of them either kegged or bottled in the US, I can only say that I no longer am willing to take the latter approach. Ever. If I can't drink British beer as its best, I won't drink it.<BR/><BR/>Except maybe Fuller's Vintage Ale. I don't want to be completely hard-assed.jefffranehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17699992839260757505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8629758183547510158.post-65152918466328858552008-01-11T19:06:00.000+00:002008-01-11T19:06:00.000+00:00I'm with you there on Guinness Special Export.

What a cracking beer that would be.<BR/><BR/>I've never understood why Sam Smith's bottled beers are so liked in the USA. I haven't really liked any of their beers since the problems they had with their yeast in 1976. Before that, Old Brewery Bitter wqas a pretty decent beer.Ron Pattinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03095189986589865751noreply@blogger.com
