ok... so if you do have a p e n i s and you are on this forum we want to know what your favourite beer is! Yep girls drink and can talk about beer too!

So boys jump on the forum band wagon... girls whip your boys into action and lets talk some tools and beer!!!

So my favourite beers is the Bimbo blonde (at Bimbos) and I love mountain goat and don't mind a corona...

I have had some recent debates as to wheather Fosters beets Carlton draught... your thoughts?

:D

Tells us when we (girls!) can jump in!

C'mon boys, this is your chance and I imagine a subject close to many fella's heart!

My Boy's fave is Coopers Pale Ale or Crown.
I hate beer. I'm a Vodka chick but now I'm into Champers even though it wipes me out. I'm drunk on number 2!

Champagne is my preferred "social" drink even tho I dont like it that much and yes Medusa I too am sozzled after 2! I prefer a long tall Campari anytime or a serious shiraz.

My boy makes his own beer and wine and has even made a "Mexican/Corona" variety for moi for summer!:o

My boy loves Corona and he has gotten me drinking them too!! I much prefer a vodka drink though ;)

Medusa I'm exactly the same!! :drunk: I love vodka and apple juice (i like to think this is the healthy alternative to soft drink mixes) or vodka and cranberry. I have also migrated into Scotch and lemonade. A friend told me the other day she likes scotch and fanta!!:confused: Champers has me on the floor after a couple... I'm hopeless on it!

Oh yeah! What's with the Fanta?? I asked some girls @ a bar what they were drinking & they said it was white wine & Fanta Yuk! :vomit:
I love vodka with soda & lime or ginger beer & lime. Too easy to drink though!
I am just looking at my cocktail recipes now. I am throwing a cockatil xmas party soon so I'm working on the menu which will be asian finger food. I'm thinking the above ginger vodka mix, a pinapple/mint/vodka granita, slushy Pina Colada and a champagne cocktail with passionfruit sorbet.

Medusa they sound yummy!!!

My latest drink that i LOVE is the caprioska (i think thats how u spell it) its sooo nice!
Went out a few weeks ago and the lady behind the bar made one out of raspberries it was delish!

Love the idea of the pinapple/mint/vodka granita. Def too easy to drink! :drunk:

I am not able to drink alcohol anymore since my kidneys chucked it in. However If I could still drink I would have Vodka & Cranberry,Champers or a Cosmopolitan Cocktail! As for beer, I personally can't stand the stuff!

Has anyone done that Jamie Oliver trick where you marinate a whole watermelon with Vodka? I love the sound of that but wouldn't attempt it with kids around, my Boy is likely to slice it up & serve it to all the kids whilst I had it aside "marinating"! :shocked:

Beer=Yuck:vomit:

(My Grandfather would be horrified he loved the stuff:) )

Love the idea of the pinapple/mint/vodka granita. Def too easy to drink! :drunk:

Sarah, have you been to Polly's in Brunswick St? They have the most amazing cocktail list! A very impressive place to take interstate guests too.:drunk:

Beer=Yuck:vomit:

(My Grandfather would be horrified he loved the stuff:) )

I actually dont mind the stuff, but it has to be a hot day and then I dont mind one of those lighter Corona style beers, slice of lime, yum!:drunk:

I like beer, but I agree the best time to drink it is on a hot day.
My faves are: Corona (with Lime), Coopers Sparkling Ale (the green one anyways), Kilkennys, Heinken and others...

My other staple drink is Vodka & Cranberry, Cosmopolitans & Mojitos... Yum :hearts:

I also love a good wine with my meal. A chardy or a merlot are my faves..

I have always wanted to try that Watermelon trick. Now i have an excuse to try it. How exactly do you marinate it?

Beers...... where to start :drunk:. Tassie beers (of course), Little Creatures, Gage Road, (WA beers), Coopers, (SA beers), but nothing from QLD. Def not XXX.

Coronas on a hot day, Asahi + Heinekein sometimes. And thats just for starters!

So not a XXXX kind of guy?? Hee Hee, apologies to Queenslanders, dont like their beer either!:drunk:

I think the WORST beer i ever had was a warm can of West End (SA beer). I think i died a little that day.

Actually i take that back, it was a warm can of Duff beer. They used to make it in SA before they got sued by the makers of the Simpsons. The cans looked the same as they did on the show. A Case of those sells for a stack on Ebay. Or so i've heard.

:typing:

My other half likes Carlton Draught - but much prefers bourbon & cokes. Personally.. beer is gross, and I cannot stand beer-breath :vomit: I much prefer wine, vodka mix, and I love CC and Dry's on a hot summers day. yumbo

So anyway where are all the guys? I know there are male members I checked out the members list!! I think they are all a little scared to be discussing on a beauty forum...

Ooh yum, forgot about CC (that's Canadian Club for those not in the know!) and dry. Next time you have one, get them to put a slice of lime in it, grab it and squeeze the juice out - very noice!! (OMG am I sounding like an alcho?):drunk:

Ha! No not at all... Sounds very interesting haven't heard the lime one before - must try it next time...

Beer is great on a hot day :) my faves are Hoegaarden, Boags Premium and Little Creatures. I also like Pure Blonde if I'm having more than one, because it doesn't make me bloaty :drunk:

I'm currently obsessed with any cocktails which contain raspberries. Obsessed. I also drink champagne (no, sorry, 'sparkling whites'!!), white wine and vodka and cranberry. If I drink a beer it will be Corona but I can only do one - not a big fan of beer but it is refreshing on a really hot day!

I tried this in Greece!! I'm not sure what Jamie does, but it was a hollowed watermelon filled with vodka. You use a soup ladel to fill your cup, and it tastes like a watermelon drink. Very fun and very dangerous! lol :rollthoseeyes:

You should definitely go to Polly's then. They have an amazing cocktail (cant remember name sorry!) that they place alcohol soaked berries at the bottom of a martini glass and top up with a vodka concoction - yummy and lethal!:drunk:

We had mojitos made at home last night.... perfect for the summer weather!!

Oh and home made Sangria!! Brilliant at a BBQ!

Im not Beer Girl as well, not a fan bcos its slightly carbonated. i do love a lychee margarita or lychee cosmopolitan or i'll just shots of chambord or zaumbucca. not the one who likes sipping and enjoying a drink haha.
Vodka always gives me a hangover but its great when mixed with redbull :)

Vodka marinated Watermelon
Cut a hole big enough to fit a funnel into a whole watermelon. Pour half a bottle of vokda into the funnel. Leave it overnight then tip the remainder of the bottle in the next day. Serve at least 6 hrs later in slices, but I guess you could put it in the blender too.

I feel 16 all over again.

Pass the Sub Zeros please.

:typing:

There's this little place in Hobart that sells Margarita's in fish bowls! There is about two to three litres of drink in these massive fish bowls. You should see the people after they have drank one! I would definitely say that the people who supply these Margarita's haven't completed a responsible service of alcohol course ............. Yet! Lol:ashamed:

Can anyone recommend a nice (dry) champagne? I don't drink it or buy it too often, and when I do I'm usually unhappy with it. I've made it my mission to find the perfect one before the silly season gets underway :drunk:

If you want dry then you need to look for Brut on the label. Most of the big names are dry.
I like sweet so I could help you with those. Sorry.

I'm a big fan of bubbles (dry and zippy, not sweet) - here are my faves:
- Chandon ZD Vintage Brut (the one with the crown seal - not cork)
- Hardys Arras
- Veuve Clicquot yellow label

Corona or Crown. I dont mind a Corona myself or Monteiths Summer Ale on a hot day

Definitely beer for a hot day. I like Corona, Little Creatures and Tooheys Extra Dry. But as I grew up as a country girl I can also tolerate a VB if there's nuttin' else around.

For more ladylike quaffing I go for a nice red, a bellini or a french martini. That's the one with a splash of pineapple juice, yum! I tried the dry martini once and almost passed out. It's a bit too much liquor for a one-drink-screamer such as myself.

Back at uni we did the vodka-soaked whole watermelon every now and again. Good times!

I bought some Egg Nog in a carton at the supermarket for xmas (it was with all the brandy custard etc). Thought I might try it seeing how it was a cool xmas in Sydney. :santa:
I have to say it was quite nice. It has no alcohol in it but had simple recipes on the side to make up drinks with poison or not. I just added some Tia Maria then sprinkled lightly with nutmeg. It was similar to TM & milk only creamier and more complex. It is a one shot drink though any more than 2 & you'd have to go brush your teeth.

Beez Neez is my favourite - it's brewed with honey, not exactly sure about how that is done but it's a lovely and you get a kind of honey aftertaste which is a bit different but really yummy!

Or Corona. But I'm usually more of a vodka girl. Except not so sure now about this whole drinking caper after last night!!! Still feeling very seedy...

I am quite keen to try one of those new Bondi Blonde beers but cant find any here at small seaside town :-(

You would think that after all that hysteria, they would actually have the stock out there eh?

Hey Admin, do you think it's a "girl's beer" as they are marketing it as low carb? Lol, just a thought!:whipcrack:

Well, I think I'm qualified to post here ;)

I'm a definate beer person. Hot day - cold beer = yummy!

Oh! Helloo! :waving: Welcome to the forum Anthony!

I love a beer on a hot day and being an SA born and bred girl I'm a Coopers Pale Ale lover. Am partial to a Guiness with a splash of raspberry cordial too (I know sounds weird but is delicious).....

As for girly drinks am really liking Rockford Alicante Bouchet at the moment and am also a fan of caprioskas :hearts:

Was a vodka girl for many years but find that it gives me the worst hangovers now :( unless its Absolute Vanilla with apple juice.

I definately love a good beer on a hot hot day. Its so thirst quenching.

My faves are:
Pure Blonde
Hahn Light
Corona

Hey Tan Envy,

Whats the go with the Absolute Vanilla and apple juice. I got given a bottle of absolute vanilla in july for my 21st and i've tried it with coke but its gross.

How do i make it with apple juice? Crushed ice, tall glass?????????

Vodka and Coke??:confused:

Yes Vodka and diet coke actually, its terribly. I used to drink a lot of it because i was on a diet but now i can't stomach it anymore. PUKE !!!!!!!!!!!:tears:

Just a note that sometimes this method results in a HIT of vodka in one spot. Sometimes the best way is to syringe it into the watermelon to ensure even spread, but this is much more time consuming :P

Ahhh BEER! I have been converted by my fellow engineering club members. How surprising :P.

My faves are little creatures, guiness, kilkeney, anything from the Belgium Beer Cafe in Perth (if you visit, you must go there! Good food and good drinks and you get a fluffy slipper), asahi is good too....dont mind some coopers or beez nees or... yes, the list goes on. As long as it is not too bitter i will like it.

Other fav's are - most cocktails, especially Bloody mary's, anything with baileys, frangelico, kahlua or lime in it.

Yes, lots of crushed ice in a tall glass and I use the cloudy apple juice. Delish!:p

Ahhhh beer! Love it! :redcheeks:

My current faves (remembering that NW Tassie is a hard place to get more than Boags, VB, or Cascade, with the odd Carlton thrown in). I don't like tap beer, too gassy.

Boags St George (local or not, near impossilbe to find)
Corona
Coopers Pale Ale - when I can get it
Moo Brew - made by Morilla Estate, verrrrryyy easy to drink lots of.

Not a fan of cocktails, most are far too sweet. No rums and no bubbly. JB & coke, Irish Whisky and coke, a good white, or a red (never together though, my head explodes if I mix red & white wine).

And for those doing the watermelon thing, my Nanna used to do similar with melon balls and Stones Ginger Wine (blech!) She'd put it all together in a tray, and turn the balls regularly so they soaked evenly.

I love stones ginger wine!!!

My current staples are red & white wine, smirnoff blacks, and G & T's. Haven't been out for aaaaaaages so I have a good supply of all the above at home :)

my boy loves Coopers Pale Ale & Coopers Sparkling Ale. he recently tried the Greek beer Mythos at a Greek Festival and :hearts: that now - it's just a light beer. i'm more into "chick spirits", premixed and the occasional import beer. i have a dan murphy's 5 minutes walk away from home also!!

haha yep I can see our bottle-o from our house - it's seriously like a 2min walk away :)

I dont quallify as a drinker, But dont mind having a bottle of beer on a hot summers day , or after a hard (and bad) day, but its very rare.
Anyway girls enjoy this video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yGJVnOwxz0

I dont know how to embed rhe video screen here with my post.

I remember when that was on telly!

oh god so do I - gotta love beer ads !!

I love Pure Blonde and Little Creatures Pale Ale.

Not a big fan of the 'girly' pre-mixed drinks like Stolli's and Cruisers. I do like vodka, dry ginger ale with a wedge of lime.

wow , haven't heard of pure blonde before , what is it like ? :confused:

Isnt that the one that they had Miss (I am off to gaol) Hilton come out to publicise?

I know, how funny! Not funny for her though, bet she thought she'd be able to get out of it on account of mommy & daddy being so rich. Meow, sorry about that!

I think Gaolbird came out to promote Bondi Blonde, possibly an offshoot of the Pure Blonde though. She got paid an absolute motza. Like she needs it. Oh dear, there I go again. Can I blame PMS?

:chuckle: You are on a roll tonight Miss RBB!:worship:

wow , haven't heard of pure blonde before , what is it like ? :confused:

Pure Blonde is a low carb beer. I think its great, as it doesnt give you that 'full' feeling after you have a few. I like the taste. Its not as heavy as other beers .... Never have tried the one that Paris Hilton came here to promote, Bondi Blonde. Dont think I will either :p

Just tried Stella Artois - verrrrrrrrry nice!

I had a few Pure Blondes last night and it wasn't bad at all. I'm not much of a beer person but they didn't give you that "beer" feeling, and the taste was quite nice too.

After 8 hours of hyper kids, and a game of AFL footy (Eagles vs Hawks) a can of Boags Draught on the way home went down a treat! :worship:

OH

was at the Belgium Beer Cafe in Brissy the other week for work drinks... have found a new fave - Hoegaarden!

YUMMO!!!

OH

YUMMO!!!

Nattieb Hoegaarden has a cult following in a lot of places - I remember being in Singapore and hearing about this chick who refused to drink any other beer, and just yesterday I read a rave review of it in a bar review.

After 8 hours of hyper kids, and a game of AFL footy (Eagles vs Hawks) a can of Boags Draught on the way home went down a treat! :worship:

Lol Rosie, yes this game did require a few beers (eagle's supporter!).

I've also just tried the Pure Blondes, and for a low-carb beer, it's great guilt free(ish) option! No substitute for the Boag's St George though.

Hmmmmmmmm............... Mr 18 has tried Hoegaarden - and was NOT impressed. Must check it out!

Ahhh yes, the Eagles did not exactly do well, trouble was, if you went to get a beer, you would miss half the damn game - the lines were that long!

Oh, and long live Boags!! I sooooooo love St George!

Although I have given up beer due to a umm increase in body mass lol my favourite beer would be Hoegarden, goes down very easy, it's not overpowering. Although if I am in a club, I love a corona with lime. Just one of the sacrifices I've had to make to get back into shape sigh.

I hate beer!!! It's gross!
It's all about the vodka with me :drunk:

I really used to hate beer and I could never ever even think about drinking it, but I actually quite like a beer now. There's just something about it! I'm still going through a bit of a Pure Blonde moment. I love that you don't feel all beer-y and gross after a few. It's also got a sort of nice biscuity, baked-bread sort of taste.

A recent study found that the average Australian walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study found that Australians drink an average of 22 gallons of beer a year.

That means, on average, Australians get about 41 miles per gallon.

Not bad eh!

Although I have given up beer due to a umm increase in body mass lol my favourite beer would be Hoegarden,

Have you tried Pure Blonde? Lower Carbs than most beers. Also has the side benefit of not being too filling.

This is why I walk lots, and go to the gym as of last week, I like the real deal far too much................. :shakehead:

Yea I have tried pure blonde, doesn't do it for me. I go to the gym lots as well because I never know what might come up on the weekend and when I will end up getting trashed lol. And by lots I mean minimum 4 days/week and sometimes 7days/week. That's for both weights and cardio though, i do weights 3-4 times/week. If I could give up drinking completely i would only have to workout half as hard imo lol but that will never happen.

:chuckle: I hear you there, I enjoy my wine too much though....

I tried the Boags Classic Blonde the other day - think I will stay with St George.

It's just not right, these low carb beers, they seem to taste, I don't know, not beer-like :no: Beer (light, low carb, green, pink or purple) should taste like BEER!!! :whipcrack:

thought I would add my 2 cents worth. I am not really a Beer drinker at all. :shakehead: And I am more partial to a Vodka Cruiser or just Vodka anything but my boy has really gotten me into the beer thing lately.

I'm loving Pure Blonde. I really dont like that yeasty or malty taste to alot of stronger beers have and this one is really smooth. Also one can neer go wrong with Corona and Lime :penguin:

Thats it thats all I got.:chuckle::glee::whipcrack:

I never ever used to be a beer drinker, but it's funny how your tastes/habits change. Maybe we are starting to like more bitter things as we get older, I dunno. The thing that made me accept drinking beer was that I didn't want to be the girl who wouldn't get into the whole "sharing jugs and shouting rounds" thing because "she doesn't drink beer"!

I don't do that anyway, and I like beer. I won't drink tap beer (I know, I know) so I stay out of the shout, and drink stubbies. :shakehead:

I'm not a huge drinker, but nothing beats an icy cold beer in summer. The more bitter the better!

Ooooooooh a new beer! How I love beer!

Blue bottle beer, designed specifically to be drunk while dining on seafood. Must sample - preferably with seafood! :glee:

Has anyone done that Jamie Oliver trick where you marinate a whole watermelon with Vodka? I love the sound of that but wouldn't attempt it with kids around, my Boy is likely to slice it up & serve it to all the kids whilst I had it aside "marinating"! :shocked:

We always have a vodka melon at parties, we also always have vodka jelly shots... but i forget there is alcohol in them and get drunk way to fast!

M - watermelon with the vodka is FABULOUS. FABULOUS. *pass out*

hehe nah it's great, easy, and gets you very happy and warm and fuzzy! :drunk:

I am a cadbury though so you may have more staying powder than me! :penguin:

I am a beer drinker first and foremost. LOVE IT. Total beer girl.

Pure Blonde and Corona's tend to be my poision nowadays, not being the alco i used to be I can't handle my beloved Coopers Pale Ale.

Stella I love as well.

And vodka and tequllia =D and Cocktails :glee::penguin::glee:

Oh Loola, I :hearts: Coopers Pale Ale, but oh boy! does it dislike me! I get very sick (as in upset tum) from it.

I could go a beer right now, watching the footy on TV. Hate normal footy, LOVE finals footy.

You and me both Rosie!!! I can't jug down pints of it like I used to! Half a schooner now and I feel ill :shakehead:

premium beers all the way (although I still don't mind a vb :))
Asahi (I like dry crisp beers).
Knappstein reserve lager - sweeter beer, not surprising since its made by a winery I believe.
Frambois Raspberry beer.

I'm from SA originally - drinking VB is blasphemy!!!

LOL Raspberry beers - brings back memories of getting $1 raspberry beer's at happy hour (that went for 3) on a Friday night - man it was ood stuff!

coopers sparkling ale....

mmmm... SA all the way kiddies

I'm from SA originally - drinking VB is blasphemy!!!!

Amen to that! Vile stuff. Feeling so irritated I am having a beer now. Don't really want it, but it's working.

Ahhhh beer, where would I be without you?! :whistle:

So long as no one on this forum drinks goon then I like you all.

So long as no one on this forum drinks goon then I like you all.

:ashamed: I think we all have a goon story from some stage in our lives :whistle::chuckle: But none that are recent :non::chuckle:

Yeah that's true. Ok so there is an exception, but if someone drinks goon religiously then may god have mercy on their soul. :chuckle:

:ashamed: I think we all have a goon story from some stage in our lives :whistle::chuckle: But none that are recent :non::chuckle:

OK - so DEFINE goon....

Vino that comes in a silver ballon, stored in a cardboard box. I do drink it, when I go out for meals, if someone else buys it for me because 99% of the time here (oh, the shame) it's all you can bluddy get - and I am NOT paying $7 a glass for Yellowtail, and no-one else is going to either!! Ninth Island, or a good NZ Sauv Blanc maybe, but not Yellowtail.

OK - so DEFINE goon....

Goon bags, silver and made from fish oil in it. It's cheap and gross.

Ok well i MAY have had it in my younger days then...along with passion pop :chuckle: Getting drunk on $3.95!

Right, steering the thread back - had a Corona tonight:penguin:

I just have to comment on the Goon topic. My friends made a Goon infused punch on the weekend it had everything in it, but next time we need 2 bags of good, it cost us a total of $20 for the lot. It was fun making it but it wasn'yt very strong, tasty though.

Passion Pop and OJ were my drink of choise in younger, poorer days. It got me by and it did the job. Those were the days.

Has anyone else heard of the "GOON OF FORTUNE"?

Beer is great on a hot day :) my faves are Hoegaarden, Boags Premium and Little Creatures. I also like Pure Blonde if I'm having more than one, because it doesn't make me bloaty :drunk:

Oh I like Hoegaarden whit( the pale white) also. I first tried this in Paris.It was served in this gorgeous deep, round glass with an elegant stem. Very lady like. Oh yes and it had lemon. My other favs are Becks( a nice clean beer) Ashanti and Corona.Preferably on a hot day and I never drink beer to get drunk. One or two beers max otherwise the 'bloat' happens.

lol@ goon. i've had it like once, and it was while playing the high class game of 'ring of goon'....

oh to be 18 again.. haha.

becks is a good beer, and i also like toohey's extra dty platinums... mmmm... the most perfect friday night beer.

OK - so DEFINE goon....

Glad I am not the only one who has never heard of a goon!:whistle:

That's probably a good thing LB. It's crap :vomit:

Oh yes can't forget passionpop! So many memories lol

What's worse is that it comes in god awful flavours - I think lemon lime and a berry one - but still maintaining that good old goon aftertaste! :vomit:

At college during uni days if you got caught on campus carrying a silver bag of plonk by the seniors they would make you skull.. not pretty :shakehead:

Oh God yeah, and Trevi.............
