Real Ale anyone?

I know I already suggested it in the request thread, but I wanted some opinions, especially from any American Posters.

Any fans of a proper pint?

I've had Hobgoblin, it said it was a Ruby Ale... whatever that is. Quite nice, perhaps too nice for a Brad Tries. Bishop's Finger was a beverage I tried once, and like all Ales it made my belly look like a hot air balloon. If I drink too much I may well float away.

Very enjoyable Bishops finger, you mate, have good taste.

I agree though, ale is hard in the stomach. Stuff like stout can give you the runs pretty bad if you overdo it.

I very much recommend Oxford gold if you can get hold of it. It's a light ale and probably better on the guts.

Oxford gold eh? I'll pick it up.

Generally I just buy random stuff from a farmer's market, wandering around like a blind man in a buffet. I had this really nice bottle of cider once, sharp and earthy. Strange though, as the bottle had a wax-like substance on the outside. No idea what it was.
