Stellas fecking horrible and I've no idea why I drink it as I talk bollocks at the best of times
I quite like Rose Pinot Grigio, Asti Spumante but cant get my head round red wine as it sends me totally loopy and it doesn't seem right drinking it warm

nope i actually like drinking it,,,, honestly the 7 pubs i drink in round my work all serve a nice pint of stella ( dont get me wrong theres a few rancid stellas sold when the pipes aint clean)
just its not a drink to have when going out for a meal when something new is launched paied for by the company,,,,, you know what i mean you are at a table at the raddison/ ect and everyone is eating there mean with wine and my glass is still up turned and i have to travel to the bar to get a pint of stella with my meal,,,, not like anyone has mentioned it but they do make comments when drunk about me being,,,, well me ha ha ha
so no i dont think drinking stella is cool
BUT DRINKING BLUE COLOURED DRINKS WHEN YOU MALE AND STRAIGHT IS DEFFO UNCOOL
also would be nice to take the missus out for a meal and her not feeling ashamed that im drinking pints when all the other civilised blokes are at a table drinking wine
you get what i mean i hope
Yup you do think its cool, and Ginge i kinda think its sad when your consious of what you drink
I drink most things, from Pints, bottles, spirits, wines etc.
And tbh i could care etc, all goes down to envrionment and whats on offer mainly

fooking red stripe,,,,, westy you are aware that just my mates are black,,,,, im actually very white
and rum and coke is erm,,,, well its what the cleaners order when they go to weatherspoons just before bingo on a wednesday night im sure
i like straight vodka from the freezer over 2 cubes of ice,,,,,, but CHRIST ordering a straight vodka in a hotel is worse than ordering a bottle of reef on a stag weekend

Cant beat a good red, cant stand white, dry or sweet!
But then I hate beer of any sort so if you love your beer then all wine will probably taste shit
Gallo as mentioned do some nice reds, ruby cabernet, cabernet sauvigon.
Tesco usually have offers of wines knocked down from Ł8-10 to about Ł4-5, cant go wrong with some of them

Wouldn't you much rather just be yourself?
Apparently, it is possible to drink a pint of Stella without bottling someone.
Last year when I was walking round the good food show, I looked round the wine section as I wanted to get a decent bottle of white.
I looked at the one that won the #1 award and decided on a bottle.
Unsurprisingly they had sold out their whole stock within a few hours, so thought next time I was in supermarket I'd grab a bottle.
It was this bottle
Between 5-10 quid a bottle, but its fuckin lush
Got higher ratings than bottles that cost 5-6 times the price.
