I think Guinness is an aquired taste, I prefer the golden or brown, ok covers up to a ruby red style ale, rather than the "Porter" or black beer style, like Guinness is.
American Beer????  , Nah can't beat a good old English Ale  . OH yes when I was about 18 I used to like to be American or probably fake "American" , oh yes I used to drink Budweiser, don't know how. Yes I know my Dad 1944-2005 agreed with you M-C, about Bud. I wanted to be American, yes I was into the cowboy or girl boots in my case, drainpipe denims, stetson type hats, and more scarves than Steven Tyler could tie around his mike stand. I used to listen to alot of American metal, Guns N Roses, Aerosmith , (but also waving the flag for the Brits). I heard GnR "Appetite For Distruction 12 years or so ago, and thought what did I see in this???? . I've still got my LP, but possibly only for the collection, as it's got the later banned "post rape" cover, might get around to putting it on e-bay one day.
I think so many English want to be American, and visa versa, well we all have the same roots, just one great big pond separates us. No but I'm proud of my English heritage. Oh yes a few years ago I was at a blood donor session, and I had an American woman make a most wonderful up of tea, despite what this song says http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azrPr7O0pfY, voals by the legendary Cream drummer Ginger Baker.
Oh this seems to be a thread about favourite drinks a recent discovery of mine is this .
Details here ,http://www.buntingford-brewery.co.uk/bottles.htm oh yes I've one unopened bottle in my bedroom, it's up on a shelf with a print of "Middsummer's Eve" and also two limited edition Freddie Mercury plates, which my boyfriend bought me for my birthday 2 years ago, (as I had to put them out of reach of my kitty, as she realised she could leap onto the drawers, and maybe one day she'd have knocked the plates flying). Oh yes this ale uses American Amarillo hops to give it a fruityness, just right not to sweet or sharp. Oh yes the money raised from sales of "92 Squadron" Ale, help go to restore the "Battle of Britain" class locomotive with the same name, more on her here http://www.buntingford-brewery.co.uk/bottles.htm
