If you are tempted to pick up a bottle of Greene King's Strong Suffolk Ale, for the love of God please don't.

Smells like chipshop vinegar; tastes like a malted barley-vodka cocktail.

Gentlemen of leisure, a warning take from me

When you´re out in the town, old boys, beware of the pretty colleens

They feed you with strong drink melads until you´re unable to stand

And the very first thing that you notice - you´ve ended in Van Dieman´s Land

There is only one thing worse than being Gosho, and that is not being Gosho

Somebody gave me a warning about some brewery's Christmas beer yesterday... but for the life of me I can't remember which one. They said it tasted like, well, I can't say here what they said it tasted like.

That's going to bug me now. I wonder when he's working next so I can ask him?

Christmas beer? smiley - runsmiley - runsmiley - run. Some German (well, Bavarian, rather) breweries do that and the tipple is even more lethal than Bockbier.
