I'd like to taste more Lambics. I only ever seem to come across Boon Gueze and sweetened fruit lambics by Boon and Belvue.

I can't recommend Stangford Lough beer to anyone no matter how few the choices available. I have tried two of their beers, the names I've struck from memory. Awful attempts to capture some of the Irish-lovin' US market.

Fair enough. I only suggested them because I hadn't tried them. But if the product is actually rubbish, then I withdraw the request. Shame.

You weren't to know, for shame. There's the gun, you know what to do...

But seriously, I remember feeling annoyed that I had actually bought this beer it was that bad. The range looked so promising, so green, fresh, and Irish! Too 'Oirish it seems. I think I may even have a bottle or two at home. Not for keeping you understand, but for using as a visual aid to warn friends of "Irelands Worst Beer"......

This being the 'Bar talk' forum, and me being from the sticks, my needs are simple. I would like to see O'Hara's more readily available; an ale besides Bass; a decent (craftbrew) Red; a decent German lager, and, of course, Hooker.
