Teabags Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 I mainly only drink the standard tasting beers. Not really into weisse, trappist etc. But I like Asahi Black, Chang, Singha, Coopers Red, Lone Star and my favourite is definetely Flying Dog Old Scratch.And asides from beer, have a Zubrowka and apple juice.

Teabags Posted November 21, 2008 Report Share Posted November 21, 2008 Zubrowka with apple juice is amazing. Im pretty sure Flash can testify its popularity amongst moorings regulars. Apparently even better if you have a stick of cucumber in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarmaTsunami Posted November 25, 2008 Report Share Posted November 25, 2008 I'm heading down tonight to try some of these. Had Moretti bottled and it was lovely! Looking forward to trying it on tap if you've got it back in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KarmaTsunami Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 I tried that Flying Dog Old Scratch, I really liked it! Also the brewdog ale Hype which again was nice but I definitely couldn't drink a lot of it. Also the Moretti on tap = better than Baltika I think.

Guest Laura@TMB Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Also the Moretti on tap = better than Baltika I think.Me too Served at same temperature as Baltika, lower ABV too, but way less gassy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Quick update to this thread...I've just discovered a beer that seems to be local to Szczecin called 'Bosman'. Absolutely wonderful stuff, goes down very very easily - and it's definitely far better than Tyskie. Of course, it's nowhere to be found in Poznan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorge Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Currently can't get enough of the cherry beer when I pop in on Friday for the post-work warmdown, even though it only takes 2 or 3 to get me a bit boozy!Ordered a massive crate of Duvel for my upcoming flat warming, that stuff is also the dog's balls. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers! The cherry beer is coming on draught soon, just taking (much) longer than anticipated. Will only be available in 1/2 pints due to it's potency.TIP: with Duvel be sure not to pour the sediment. The bottle is specially shaped to catch it provided you pour it slowly. The sediment makes it taste bitter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash@TMB Posted May 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 At last the Bacchus Kriek (cherry), Framboise (raspberry), and *DANGER* La Chouffe *DANGER* are now avialable on draught.As is customary these will be served in their own glassware which equates to 1/2 pints, and regulr 1/2 pint glasses on busy nights when they are more likely to get smashed or nicked.We must be mad getting La Chouffe on draught...

Teabags Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 I went down before poker to sample the Bacchus. After a half of each and a half of Budvar Dark, me, Kyle and Stuart created the greatest concottions ever.1/2 Bacchus (Kriek or Framboize) + 1/2 Addlestones/Heritage = insanely easy to drink nutter juice.And this needs further testing, but I am completely void of a hangover this morning.

The Ghost Of Fudge Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 flash - out of interest, what do the sales figures say are the, like, three best selling beers are?(or is it a secret?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash@TMB Posted June 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 flash - out of interest, what do the sales figures say are the, like, three best selling beers are?(or is it a secret?)I don't know. Laura could tell us though. It's not straightforward as for example you get one customer coming in and drinking 6 cases of Singha a month, so yes that's a good seller, but there may only be a couple of people drinking it, so it's not necessarily the most popular.There's also supply problems which fuck with the figures. As we're only stocking a case or two of most things there's always the danger of running out of a particular beer on the the first day. The order only comes once a month. So by the end of the month even the most unpopular beers are starting to sell as they are the only ones left!The fruit beers were very popular when they were in bottles, and they are now on draught and selling even more strongly, but it's hard to compare draught sales to bottle sales.The other thing is that we stock a lot of things that are very unpopular, but for which there is a niche market. I had one of the best drinking days of my life on St Bernard's Triple and it didn't even hurt the next morning, but it's hardly a popular beer.Overall the more beers we stock the more we sell in total.

Lemonade Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Keep serving Lone Star and I'll keep coming in and drinking it (Tho admittedly I'm only in once every few weeks so it wouldn't make that much of a difference anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
