RE: A Favorite Topic

Some nice beers there TM, Bass, Newkie Broon(which I hope you are drinking in the proper fashion i.e. in a half pint tumbler which you top up as required).

Last few times I've been in the States I've been impressed, and quite surprised by, the variety(and popularity) of India Pale Ale. When I started out on my drinking career McEwans India Pale Ale was the one. It came in a bottle with one of those tops that had the rubber ring round it, we called it 'A big screwtap'. You could get 'A big screwtap' and a bag of crisps (potato chips), and still have change out of 'two bob', which in todays money equals 10p, one tenth of a pound! Amazingly, in relative terms, alcohol is cheaper now than it was then!

Had a bit of a retro bevvy last weekend before and during the 'fitbaw'. Back in the day we used to mix 'Barley Wine' with our pint's of 'Heavy', called it 'Happy Days'. Barley Wine is a beer that's too strong to qualify as a beer, 'Heavy' would be the Scottish equivalent of English 'Bitter', the difference is Scottish beer is brewed using malt as opposed to hops.....anyway we were immediately transported back in time. Happy days right enough, and the team won, I think, I canny remember!
