Whats Your Favourite Liquid Accompaniment 2015
« on: April 17, 2015, 11:30 PM »
Prompted by Curry Addicts Bob post http://www.curry-recipes.co.uk/curry/index.php/topic,12318.msg119615.html#msg119615 and CH mention a couple of Leffes and I realise this has been covered before but for me there's a lot more varietys out there these days including ciders and real ales.

For me when I'm at eating Indians at a restaurant, its the Kingfisher or Cobra (I'm a real ale man normally)which I find varies from place to place. If I'm at home my favourite is Grimbergen which is a 6.7% Belgian Abbey Ale. Out of the fridge its my favourite curry beer by far.

So I ask, whats peoples current favourites?

For me while eating curry its Kingfisher, I find Cobra to sweet, but my drink of choice is straight malt whisky ;)

I think everyone has guessed Leffe is my session beer.   I much prefer Cobra with a curry to many other "Indian" beers on offer in restaurants.  I do have a selection of 28 other Belgium beers in the cellar, ranging from 8% to 11.4%.  A possible favourite is Triple Karmaleit, a very fragrant trappiste number flavoured with coriander and oranges funnily enough.  Always perfect with fish.  Athough, 10% plus can be needed on here sometimes, to ease the pain when the going is getting tough  ;D

If only i could appreciate whisky like i do beer  :(  There are so many different malts with supposedly different characteristics.  But to me, they all taste like fire water  :o  Sorry guys, it is only my opinion though, and no offence to the hardened scotch drinkers who know and appreciate their stuff  ;)

I couldn't stand the stuff till I went away for a week with my brother in law and his mate who liked the whisky and by the end of the week the damage was done and I was hooked. ... :-\

My own UJSSM corn whisky, till the wife and special head doctors suggested it may not be for me.
Now XXXX Gold. Mid_strength low carb lager.

Clausthaler extra herb, because Main Thaler is no longer available. Both are German alkoholfrei beers with 0,5% alcohol.

Like most Scots (I suspect!), I'm fairly versatile. Any port in a storm for me. Mmmm, did I just say Port? :)
