What's the best beer to drink while using your Amiga?

*Disclamer*

Remember to use caution when using beer near you computer. Spilling beer in to your keyboard can cause hazardous and unknown effects.

Just to nice we can add...

"What's the best beer to drink while using your Amiga or Peg?"

Maybe "Pabst 'Blue' Ribbon"? ;)

When I worked for a small startup web development/coding company a few years ago, we drank Hermann's Dark Lager. During breaks of course, we wouldn't want to be drinking WHILE we were coding would we? ;)

Beer? why Beer?

We need a drink which is small, efficient, has been around for some time and is a pleasure to use.
Of course we also want there to be different kinds :-)

Might I suggest Whiskey?

I'm not a whiskey drinker usually but I'd go for Bushmills, though I'm biased as I have family there :-)


If you insist on a Beer just give me something from Belgium, I'm quite partial to Leffe or Grimbergen but they do plenty of good beers - including some very "efficient" beers like Duvel.

Of Whiskeys, I have to say the best have I've got was 15 years anniversary Old Pulteneys-whiskey which was unbelievable. I seriously thought of divorsing and re-marrying to get another bottle. I couldn't find it anywhere where I live :(

I have a really ancient pilsner commercial lying around with two hobos. One asks the other "Perikles, when does a Tuborg taste best?" and the other one replies "Every time."

Personally, I'd go for just about any good beer. I'm terribly fond of Velkopopovicky Kozel Dark these days though.

When it comes down to beer, if I can see through the glass of beer when I hold it up to a light, it's not dark enough. I would say close to 99% of the american horse piss is proof that my countrymen have no clue what beer is. Guinness extra stout isn't bad, but I've had better, just don't know the names. Most of the better beer I've had is either from the oddball parts of scotland or in the "micro pubs" of germany.

Probably Monty Pythons Holy Ale.

Which says in the label 'Tempered over burning witches', but most probably there's been a few trolls and blue fairys in the bonfire too.

No mere 640, but the full 704 or 768 Pixels worth!!!

Franciscanner, Leffe, Satan, Judas, Quack, Skaldis ... the first two are the softest, but I love the taste of Franciscanner. The next ones are a little stronger, and the last one is quite strong (IRC it has 12.5º). It depends on how drunk you want to get... some coders say that their code quality increases with the amount of alcohol the drink but I don't think I'm in the same group. Fortunately, the alcohol quantity I drink doesn't affect my code much, it's as crap as always :-D

At least 3 of the "6 classic malts" are on my "top ten" list. Oban, Cragganmore, Dalwhinnie. Add Glenmorangie to that shopping list and I'm a happy shivering blob in the gutter.

Beer:
Carlsberg or Tuborg as a refreshing summer drink
Newcastle Brown Ale fits nicely in with a single malt in the other hand ;-)
Guiness when you're in the "dark and bitter" mood

Oh yes - Duvel! That makes your day. Sadly difficult to get in Germany, but whenever I am in the Netherlands (or of course Belgium, but this happens only rare) it's Duvel time. There are plenty other Belgium beeres which are really cool.
But for generic usage I prefer German Pils beers from the West i.e. Krombacher, Bit (they shold offer a bundle of 8 bottles which they could sell as byte then) or Pinkus. in summertime those Bavarian white beers are very refreshing (Paulaner has a nice (flash) site @ www.paulaner.de available in Bavarian, German, English)

what about the almighty Carlsberg Special Brew?!?! ;)

I have empty cans of Stella sitting next to my monitor, but my usual choice is Newkie Brown, Guinness (especially in the Winter months!) and Stella. I'm partial to a bit of snakebite in the summer, too ;)
