Beer doesn't change your sexuality - merely "enhances" it

Actually it is well known that beer contains female hormones. After a large quantity of beer you don't make any sense, can't drive, get unusually emotional and (apparantly) start hopping into bed with blokes.

With todays line cleaners and pastuerised beers there is no necessity to wash the lines with water every day.
A clean every 7 days is adequate, the problems occur when this is not done.

Interesting you say the beer is pastyoureyes - surely "real ales" would still need better cleaning?

Nope, the real ale drinker's beard acts as a personal filtration device for them

Ah - but did you only clean the pipes once every day? Pipes *should* be cleaned with water every day, and chemicals once every 7, but no-one I've ever seen does the once a day water flush cause it's a real pain and wastes the amount of liquid in the pipes.... J

Course not, that would have been like work! Maybe every other day at best, but then both taps were cleaned at the same time so I guess they would have been the same? I could never tell the difference anyway.

Ha Ha!!!!!!!!!!! Mind you, I keep telling 'ya I dont have a beard. Why not come to the Maidstone beer festival on the 6th September and see for yourself! Over 100 real ales for you to sample (and make notes on)....

My sister used to be a trading standards officer and she did pub checks for a while. Few complaints and in they'd go ... and guess what? If the beer tastes watery, it usually is. Water, trays from under the taps all back in the barrel. Not hard to measure the booze content. Even easier thing for the landlord to dilute is the spirits.

does any actually believe the "walkers" whisky, and "smirnoff" vodka, actually IS the right brand?

I can spot a brand of vodka from the first taste (sad I know) and cheap spanish "Wodka" is very easy to pour into a smirnoff bottle..

mind you, at £42 PROFIT a bottle, its hardly worth it, unless its happy hour and your planning on shifting several bottles...

What is it with people this week?

Don't get me wrong, if I was would say so...

But for everyone that's said it lately:

I AM NOT GAY

...and don't start with the "doth protest too much" kick either

Only two places in the world you can get a decent beer: VB in Oz and San Miguel in the Philippines. Brit beer isn't just watered down, it tastes like they already washed the dishes in it.

Damnit!

I missed this one the first time through.

That's an old one John, but it rings strangley true doesn't it?

Doesn't detract from the fact that you are still both a pair of g!ts.

What's the longest duration for a thread resurrection?

Anyway, in Lanzarote, this topic has cropped up again. Pint definitely looks and feels diluted. Is this even possible?

Well if it is watered down, look on the positive side at least you'll not be drunkenly on MSN Messenger like the OP.

Hahaha - I am pleased someone responded. Thank you.
