Why is it that when i go for an:
Italian, they only have Peroni or such like?
A Curry house: Cobra/Kingfisher?
A Chinese restaurant: Singha/Tsingtao?
Ok, run of the mill draft lagers like Carlsberg are often found as a back up lager, but what about real ale?
Now, why is it that we don't get any real variety of beers in restarants other than pubs? If you move over to wine, there will always be a decent selection of quality stuff to choose from, so why not the same for beer? The quality beers are available in bottles, so that's no excuse.
I'd love a pint of Tanglefoot with my Prawn Bhuna Balti for example!
But what about all the wonderful beers from these countries? The Chinese and Italians must have some, rather than these big name brands. Curry houses are mostly run by Bangladeshi's and they aren't allowed to drink, so findind a decent brew there might be a bit tricky.
I think the ones i've listed are pants, especially Cobra. What prompetd this post was someone buying me a bottle of Peroni. I had it back to back with another lager and to my surprize, it was just lame in comparison. If you have a beer tasting one evening, you might get what i'm on about (if you don't get it already).
Why are we drinking such rubbish?
