Anyone for another.... (BOTW mk2)

Get rid of A = Ale. Too vague, though unsure what could go in its place. Just seems odd to have Ale & then IPA, Blonde, Export, Red and so on which are all Ales also.

And, L = Lambic would be more interesting I reckon.

Just a thought - how about A = Alcohol?

Yes I know it's a beer competition but it's one of those rounds your could open up to pretty much anything (like a wild card) hopefully allowing for more points to be gained by the winner assuming the scrabble scoring system is implemented?

Would you rather have A - Alcohol free

If it has an Ale ONLY in the beer name then I'd deem that to be fine?

Scrabble points was fun and will be included in this comp. but only for the UK round

I'll have a think about another item for A.

I like this. Just the alcohol matters though. Doesn't matter on the brand.

And you didn't comment on L so I trust that's been rubber stamped?

Lager is L yes

Still as mentioned thinking about A

Lager is a brewing method, not a type of beer strictly speaking. You just don't know where you can get a lambic from. You're just scared, third place mcgee!

If it says Lager on the bottle or can it's allowed.... as for third place I rolled over as I knew you would have fallen to pieces with macca winning...

I just thought it'd be more interesting to go for a type of beer that the vast majority won't have tried before or even heard of. But hey ho.

Hoping to get this all sorted late this weekend, if anyone is still interested get your name down before it starts....

Ahleckz · 15 Feb 2013 at 18:17

L for Lambic! GET YOUR VOTES IN PEOPLE. Democracy rules!

Moobert · 15 Feb 2013 at 18:24

I'll have a go, mightn't be able to partake every week, but hopefully get max points when I do.

You don't have to drink them, stock them up and have them all at the end of the compo/lent
