Time for a beer

It's Windhoek again for me this avo -- a German beer at un-German prices (and still a great deal from the Mt Eden Liquor Centre).

Cheers.

  2. I nearly got into trouble on the train tonight. Some dude ordered a Tui's, and the barstaff (I catch the best trains) said "Sorry, we are out of Tui) and I said:

    "Perhaps the water might be a good substitute?"

    Tui drinker with a sense of humour?
    Yeah right.

  3. Hah! Water's too good for a Tui drinker. :-)

    CUSTOMER: "Barman, bring me a beer."
    BARMAN: "I'm sorry sir. Beer's off. All we have is Tui."
    Customer leaves at a run.


    (So what train was this you were drinking on, Zen? Apart from the Tui, it sounds very classy.) :-)

  5. 'Tall Blonde' from Founder's brewery in Nelson is a class product!

    Compared to Tui it is....

    No- I wouldn't compare it!

  6. Oswald - all the Founder's beers are top class, I particularly like the 'Long Black'. I prefer my blonde's short - brownie points with the girlfriend there ;-).

    PC - so, what was it like? I've never tried the 'hoek. Give us some thoughts.

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
