Default Re: If the measure of a man...

Am I the only person alive who doesn't like Stella?

One of my Irish friends was always drinking it, and I assumed that it must be good, because people from europe are cultured and have good taste. I finally tried some and it was just so "meh".

I'm not a big beer drinker, and generally believe that wrt beer "if you can see through it, it's piss", but Stella seemed especially non-remarkable.

That's right, $.60 to fly like the Bird.

To this day if someone sez "What's the word" I blurt out "Thunderbird".

I dunno, I think it's pretty good. It's the beer that everybody has on tap around here, and I generally get draft beer and generally like lagers and pale ales. I think a lot of the more mass-market continental European beers (Stella, Heineken, Amstel Light etc) fall into a close category for me with Stella being the best.

Also, Czechvar is good.

By "picked up some" I assume you mean bought at the store. I agree. It has to be on tap.

I didnt realise 20/20 originated in the States as well, this was the stock drink of the 15-16 year old lasses when we used to hang out on the street. Obvioulsy this was before alcopops that they all drink now.

As well as tasting [censored], Stella seems to be drunk exclusively by yobs round here. More reserved men drink Carling.
