I do like a draught Moretti but when it comes to the bottles I would go for Peroni.

Bottled beer way before lager, with cider in between, but my Fav is....... the one someone else pays for.
Seriously though, Hobgoblin or some of the Arran ales, or from small local breweries, our local Aldi usually has a good selection of beer at really keen pricing.

Based on that I shouldn't be here at all... I'm not even sure any of those offered even resemble beer any more. Coloured water with varying degrees of fizz.

But Belgium is closer than the Canaries....
I guess the beer is more widely available than it used to be...

you can but in crates now from the monastery via mail order but you have to buy a whole crate for about £300 euro's to be fair i think it is an OK beer, I paid 21 euros in Gran Canaria to try it.

After many many years, of drinking real ales, craft beers and various Belgian, Czech and German beers, I gave up beer last year.
This thread makes me think fondly of one my favourite beers:

Ooh and it looks crispy too. Lekker!
So, Helles or Edelstoff. I think draught, Edelstoff wins but for some reason the better bottled of the two is the Helles.
Have you tried their Heller Maibock or the Maximator?

Even the most mundane beer can be amazing in the right setting. A crispy cold lager on a hot day in the Alps after an amazing motorbike ride for example.
I’m particularly partial to Schiehallion in Scotland, and the Peroni Gran Reserva Dobla Molta is amazing. Also another fave is the Estrelle Voll Damm Doble Malta. Lovely.

Favourite bottled beer? If I could currently drive up there and buy some, then either Wincle Beer Company's 'Sir Philip' bitter or their 'Wibbly Wallaby' pale ale would be my bottled beer of choice. A little gem of a brewery in North Cheshire.
Failing that, during lockdown, Sainsbury's 'Taste the Difference' Kentish Ale isn't bad stuff at £1.50 a bottle.
As for 'homebrew', which has something of a mixed reputation, and probably quite rightly so given that there's definitely an element of skill involved in creating something palatable! Many years ago, when I had time to brew my own beer, I used a Munton's 'Old English Bitter' kit as a base, and added 1/2 kg of dried golden malt extract to it. I couldn't keep people away from the pressure barrel if I served that at a party!

Im mostly an ale drinker in cold weather, lager in the summer heat.
Timothy Taylor Landlord, fave ale
Erdinger weissbier, fave wheat beer

Athough ive just discovered a local brewery called Three brothers who do a double dry hop pale ale which is delicious. They have some lovely ales.

What the hell is that based on?? Volume sold? Sales? What they asked a couple of people in each area? Could just be that each of those brands just sell more than any other, but could still well be a very small percentage of all beers drunk, so it's actually quite meaningless. It certainly has no relation to what people actually like!
Besides; only London Pride and Marstons Pedigree are actual beers. The rest are just chemicals added to water...

I'd rather like an Anchor Steam about now - it turns out that Americans can actually make beer (who knew?)
