The Morreti brewery is in Manchester

Did once see some Peroni that was brewed in The Netherlands

The place of brewing really makes a difference. The Sardinian beer was something else

What the Moss Side / Hulme one? That used to (I've not been along Princess Parkway for a while) have a Foster's sign on it,

Who do we think we are?

Every time I see these words, the fucking song starts playing in my head.

I genuinely feel like Homer Simpson and the Clown College advertisements.

I'm old enough to remember the complaints from old farts, people who would have been around the age I am now, when Ansell's bitter was moved from Birmingham to Burton on Trent. "It's not the same." "They've ruined it." "It's all in the water."

Tell the places I went!

Last time I tasted it tasted like it was made in the 1800's

It is the main ingredient by volume so it stands to reason!

All this foreign beer brewed at home is shite. Saw somewhere they put glucose in them to appease the British tastebuds. For the amount of lager drunk in this country the choice is awful. The equivalent lagers abroad are clean and crisp and no hangovers. I was drinking prooer German brewed Hofbrau last weekend, lovely stuff.

My mate organised a trip to Ansells brewery in brum back in the day. Rumour had it that you got a free couple of pints at the end of the tour. Anyway, after 10 minutes of the tour, the girl guiding our group said “you don’t really want to see how it’s made, do you?” And promptly took us to the bar. They had a buffet laid on too, and it was an open bar till we were kicked out at 11.pm. Lovely.

£3 each, and that was for the coach. Tour was free.

from that day on, my mate was known as someone who “could“ organise a piss up in a brewery. Legend.

The Staropramen they make in Prague is so much nicer over there, than when it gets over here A stronger fuller flavour than ours, maybe they export the dregs to us.
