    I’ve tried some “good” craft beers based on friends’ recommendations and still not good. I think beer just isn’t for me. I much prefer cider.

      If you like cider but not beer, have you tried a mead yet? There’s no need to keep trying beers if they’re not for you.

        I rarely consume alcohol nowadays (maybe 1-2x a year), but I’ll keep that in mind.

          Good for you. I’m a more frequent drinker but I think it’s a good thing that it’s going out of fashion – it’s definitely one of the most harmful intoxicants.

      You should find a smoothie beer. They exist in all fruit flavours, I personally love them. And sour beers. Vault City and Funky Fluid are my two favourite breweries.

        Recently visited The Wee Tap in Edinburgh and have tried lots of Vault City. None beat Azvex Operation Genome [26.05] Mango and Blackberry Ice Cream Sour though. Could put that in the meal deal isle with the other smoothies and no one would notice the difference.

          Ooh, haven’t tried that one!

          A beer shop close to me has a deal with Vault City (started two months ago): they get ALL the beers Vault City produces. I guess I’ll be spending more money going forward lol.

          Btw, if you like sours, try the Foundation by VC. It’s what all their sour beers are based on, and it’s really good!
