The best pint I've ever had was the first, and so far only, time I had Samuel Smith's Taddy Lager. I don't even know what it was about it, but it was just very, very nice. Out of the lagers that regularly appear on tap in bars and pubs round here, Kronenbourg and Peroni are my favourites.

This is not the greatest beer in the world, this is just a.........
so I would say a pint of landlord in the boathouse circa 1998. Or a Kimberly Classic straight from the barrel at the Coopers up to 2005.

The Guinness in Dublin, at least in the 90s, was OK but nothing special because most pre-poured half pints sit too long on the bar. In the countryside though, it was lovely. Some pubs in Brighton used to get Irish Guinness sent over when I was there in the 90s.

I can't help about the shape I'm in, I can't sing I ain't pretty and my legs are thin
But don't ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to

Lovely stuff
Mikkeller/ Siren Craft Daydream was superb, easily the best Stout i had, extremely hard to find, and i believe they wont ever brew it again as it was so difficult to get it right, but by god they DID get it right :-)
Theakstons Barrista was also brilliant and slightly easier to find
and Sam Smiths Oatmeal Stout
We used to get that down in the Midlands about 15 years ago, a really nice pint. Don't see it so much now. Also used to get Deuchars back when it tasted of something, and 80/-. Rarely see those either now.
Favourite beer depends on the mood, the weather, how long you've got (i.e how many you're going to have) and the availability of pork scratchings!

In Nottingham we are very well blessed for really good pubs. Nottingham Camra were right at the head of the beer revolution 25 years ago and the Robin Hood Beer Festival has always been the biggest in the country (by numbers of beers). They also did a huge amount to publicise real ale, producing an excellent monthly magazine. They are also responsible for the LocalE scheme. Other places seem to be catching up now which is great.
