Yuki's Passion 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 >Dropping a lemon or lime in your beer though?? The beer has problems if it needs a slice of citrus to make it palatable. AfackingMEN to that!! Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 The reason that they do that is that the citrus acid is thought to repel flies Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 you're supposed to wipe the freakin rim of the bottle to keep flies off. Those pussie yuppies started dropping the lime in like the pussies they are. But serious beer drinkers will not drink sol or corona unless there is no other alcoholic drink on the table.

Yuki's Passion 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 thurs, Id rather drink cranberry juice than Corona Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Yeah, me too. Some vodka in the cranberry juice would be nice. Or vice versa. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Somehow I don't think there are many yuppies in Mexico. I've got this from the horses mouth, my old roomate was from Tijuana. He says that why Mexican beer is drunk with lime. I don't mind Corona, I have to say. I find it very refreshing. Why is there such a hate towards Corona? Link to post Share on other sites
Yuki's Passion 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 as 66 said, if you have to add something to the beer to make it taste better it must be shite! Thats JMHO though. Im an alcohol snob Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Here's some meaningful beer talk from above.

Just as Capa was about to press his shutter release, a hidden enemy machinegun opened fire. Borrell, hit in the head or heart, died instantly and went limp while still on his feet, as Capa's photograph shows. from: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters/database/capa_r5.html Link to post Share on other sites

I'm curious about that German one, as I seldom see Germans brewing many ales. Link to post Share on other sites
spacefrog 0 Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Yeah the one in Germany is Mariawald and the Dutch one is Koningshoeven that brews La trappe. Not a bad beer either. Never tried Mariawald but they make up the 8 breweries that are allowed to carry the trapist mark. Link to post Share on other sites

Ah, maybe that's why the two books I've come across mentioned five and not eight. It sounds like those others are Trappist Ales but they are not brewed on the monastery grounds, I'm guessing.
