I'd rather have a Hobgoblin, a Spitfire, or a Bishops Finger.

If there are enough REAL BEER drinkers on here I could open a Bar ?

hobgoblin etc all good ales that is why I don't have any firm favourites, each one has it's own merits and ocassions when it will be significantly better than any other. Shepherds neame s**t and scream as someone once said to me. Well I never did and the Bishop is good on a bloody hot day, spitfire too, but all to be drunk at room temperature, please never ever put my Ales in the fridge :dude:

When I'm down in Yorkshire, Theakstons Balck Sheep. Up here, Orkney Breweries real ale. It's fantastic.

Like them both also Arran dark and Wildcat when in Scotland, down in Cornwall it has to be Spingo and in Devon it is usually Tawny hmmmm I always seem to find some damn good ales when on my wanderings.

I used to drink GK IPA, my parents had a GK pub for seven years, I preferred Abbot Ale. Luckily Extra Cold was not an option back then so they never committed any sacrilege:).

While I do like a nice drop of Tanglefoot or Fursty Ferret I'm not too keen on some of their more 'Flowery' beers.
Golden Champion and England's Gold spring to mind - they taste of perfume !
