*** The Official OcUK Beers Of The World Competition ***

[DirtyJester]

I assume that 'O' can beer any beer beginning with the letter, even if they are special editions or festival beers?

Yes mate, as long as the 'O' isnt the Brewers name

 

[~Divine~Wind~]

Cracked open the NZ beer, there are no words how good this is! Going to pop back to the shop on monday and pick a bottle for the winner of the competition.

If this got no points this week, id be happy as I am enjoying it that much

Tempted to ask what it is for when I go shopping lol
Will wait til after all entries done tho

Are there any Dark NZ beers?

 

[pingwing]

Good to hear. Still wondering if we all have the same. Annoying a little as I have found what I originally wanted but only by the case. Funds will not allow.

Got a feeling I have something different (after getting lucky on my research for this week), hoping for it anyway

My one was horrible.

awww

Haha that would sort of break the game

I have seen one or two dark NZ beers out there. Just have to have a good look...

 

[DirtyJester]

Don't forget people.... NO weekly results for New Zealand until tomorrow morning as once again I'm working... sorry.

EDIT: 7 entries so far

 

[strang3r]

Well, took a trip over to the shop and now have a NZ entry. Also have a rubbish looking Portuguese bottle, looking forward to that one.

Yeah, I thought that too. I just bought the one which I though I may enjoy, fully expect to get little/no points anyway. Kanifee shops there too, we both got the same vile French beer.

Didn't swim there DJ. Don't quite know what changed my mind and motivated me to make the trip. Have my entries for the next month or so sorted and will probably have them tonight.

Impressed with the shop?


The Portuguese stuff I picked up is the worst thing I've tasted so far during the competition. I think I could replicate it with a half of cooking lager mixed with a little washing up liquid, special brew and whisky. Considering throwing it down the sink..

Aye definatley gonna be headed back, sure some of its expensive but no more expensive that a night out. They actually had a few I really fancy trying I think my eyes may have even lit up when I saw the Oktoberfest stuff

That one sounds a bit like that casablanca crap.

 

[strang3r]

I saw the Casablanca when I was there, brought a smile to my face. Saw a few African beers too, bet they're nice

Yeah Casablanca is awful. Tastes like it is made from river water. A good African beer (Kenyan) is Tusker. Worth a try if you see it.

NZ entered.

 

[Ahleckz]

So, what did everyone enter? I went for Montieth's Black Beer. A stout. Very unremarkable.

I'm not going to ask where you got that from?

I spent most of my day off either on the phone or driving round Edinburgh / Livi trying to find an off licence that actually stocked NZ beer

On the plus side I did discover the Banana Bread Beer and I'll definitely be purchasing more of that - it's all fun and it's a learning curve huh
