    I'm technically a functioning alcoholic despite significantly cutting down on my consumption relative to college. A casual 4-5 drinks deep tonight for no reason, which has been par for the course for the entirety of my time at home.

    Yolo.

    It's actually the weight and expectations of all your unacheived dreams and hopes. I thought i'd carry them for you seeing as youv'e trading them in for liveleak and self loathing.

    Whatever it is, don't describe it like that if you're ever in Scotland. That word has a very specific meaning here.

    What's with the name? I can only think that maybe it makes a growling noise as it's being filled/emptied, but even then it's a daft name.

    I bet there's a marital aid company marketing the 'Glass Growler'.

    Tonight I'll be mostly drinking pink moscato my sister left over last time she stayed. I don't think that's hipster.

    I've no idea really, as long as I've ever heard of it that's what they've been called. I only discovered it pretty recently when I seen it in the local place though.

    Porter is the black stuff, right? Like stout?

    I either like really light or just plain black. Ruby and Dark (the inbetweeners) are my least favourite types of ale, I reckon.

    It is indeed. You're exactly same as myself. I like the likes of those above or really light like the pilsners. The hoppy pale ale type stuff is not for me at all.

    That chocolate milk one is outstanding.

    EDIT: and the turf smoked is odd.

    I'm not big on smoked ones. There's a couple I can drink but not any I'd go out of my way for.

    I've made a start on a handful of bottles too. Actually, the first was a can. A stout called "Dark Arts" by Magic Rock which was ace. Now at the other end of the scale Howling Hops' Pale Ale.

    Only 3.8% but surprisingly tasty. Could spend the afternoon on this.

    Porters are my favorite type of beer. Not a big fan of IPAs either, or most other 'hoppy' shite.

    Must see can I locate that dark arts. Few places I've found have rarer stuff.

    The hops just overpower any other taste for me. Never liked them.


    EDIT: This smoked one is better the further down I go.

    Also, one of the more popular ones here (which might mean it's exported) here @Ian is O'Haras Leann Follain. Well worth a try if you like a stout.

    One of the bottles sitting in the kitchen calls itself an "imperial mild", which seems like a bit of a contradiction in terms but I'm curious to try it.

    I'm not sure there's a type of beer I uniformly dislike other than sour ones.

    I fucking love sour beer! Lambic beers are brilliant. But yeah, largely I'm with Baz and Giggles on super pale or super dark and nowt much between. Adnams Ghost Ship is one of my faves on the former.

    Just opened one I forgot I'd bought. A collaboration between Brewdog and Ilkley called "White Chocolate Stout" but is a clear, golden beer. It's a bit odd in truth. I guess you might be convinced it's a stout if you were trying it blindfolded but it doesn't properly match the description.

    Yes, that's my feeling too, although I've encountered a few hopy beers which I have actually quite liked. All of them winter beers of some sort.

    I like them to an extent but some of the beer is ruined by the over the top hoppiness so I dont drink them too often. That and it gives me a massive headache the next morning.

    I don't feel that getting used to hoppy beers was any different to getting used to what I found to be an overwhelming malty flavour in stouts and the like. Now dark beers (stouts, porters, 'black IPAs') are probably my favourites nowadays but I still like a hoppy one as well.

    I'm just finishing the few I didn't have last night. The Proclamation one (which I expect is just another one cash-in rebranded) is too hoppy for a porter. Eyes closed you'd think it was an IPA.

    I have a growing appreciation for English ale, the type that's produced locally and is sold at near room temperature.

    Can't get it in Ireland, but whenever I'm over there I make a point of partaking.

    That's one thing I can't do and don't think I'll ever be able to come round to. Most of these stouts and porters are supposed to be room temperature but for me beer needs to be cold.

    Bad white wine is an awful thing. I had one in a restaurant a couple of weeks ago that tasted like it'd been cheap vinegary shit to begin with and had then been opened about a month prior to being given to me. Vina Sol is my go to white wine but it's rare to find it in a restaurant or bar.

    My general rule of thumb is you can get away with a cheap red wine but never a cheap white. I put cassis into cheap white if we have it to kill the crap flavour.

    Rosé is fine. That 'Blossom Hill' shit with fruit flavouring is the proper wankers' drink.
