Le mans and proper beer

[Bagman]

We're going to bring a few kegs of spitfire & bombadier to the mulsanne & arnage campsites. Does anyone want any delivered to their chateaux or any other parts af the ciruit??

[outnumbered]

I'm sure a lot of it will be "delivered" to other parts of the circuit in one form or another...

[Bagman]

Fair point outnumbered. We have the network to deliver en masse. We're probably too late to get a proper pitch but we're going to turn up anyways cos one of our mates is will in all likelyhood drive one of the Jet Alliance Lotuses. Now we know people will want beer. The question is, how much?

[Some Gump]

Bagman,

Are you serving it properly, or all flat and stty to cater to the savvern lot?

[Bagman]

Given the number of British spectators we'd like to get to a point where it's comperable to what you get at you get at your local (even for northerners ;-)).

Will probably be a mixture of barrells and bottles for this year but we'd like to build year on year.

Beats that 33 export shyte anyways.

Sensible suggestions and contacts to your Chateaux are very welcome.

You can get "English" beer if you stay at home and watch the telly, you can also get "english" beer at Le Bounty but you can't get Yorkshire Beer so might as well drink cheap French se as opposed to expensive "english" se

Some Black Sheep would go down a treat

not all french beer is the blond watery kind, they also sell brune beer, which is much more like bitter, however be careful as it is strong, most supermarkets sell it in either small bottles (dumpy size) or in campers style bottles with corks, ruddy good stuff.

[leyorkie]

Try the beers from the north ( France that is) They have many small breweries with some very potent stuff, Jenlain for one. The brown beer that is available everywhere is Pelforth Brune tasty and strong.
33 is classed as se by the French and it is only bought by British tourists buying on price. Try 1664 brewed in France not the stuff you get in England and of course there's always Belgian beers available for some real quality stuff.

On another note saw a Jag one year with the registration B1 ERE

Another big vote for Jenlain, around 6.5% and bl**dy tasty! Comes in stubbies and 75 cl champagne style bottles from a Super U near you
