wiggyrichard Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 wine tastes all the same to me. red or white. I can tell the difference between red & white but thats about it. How on earth can u possibly tell the difference between the 2? EDIT: in a blind taste test, I'd possibly struggle. The tastes are miles apart mate. Also the red has more body Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theunderstudy Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Yes, mainly because stella was the first drink I ever got pissed on, so I distinctly remember the taste! Smae with Stowford Press, the only drink I've ever thrown up after having. (it was a copious amount in a very short time in fairness) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted February 25, 2011 Moderator Share Posted February 25, 2011 The thing with lager is that it can depend on the pump in the pub or the 'run' on the pump as to how it tastes. Some lagers are close enough that a bad pint of one can make it taste potentially like a bad pint of several others. But some good pints are unmistakeable.

Also the red has more body Haha, I may have been exagerating a bit, I think even i could separate one from the other, just about. Beyond that, I'd have no chance of being able to tell the difference between say a Burgundy and a Shiraz though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think I'm as open minded as possible wrt alcohol. I haven't tried as many ales as I could have, but they don't taste the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shillzz Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I'm a lager drinker because I wouldnt want to get through 6 or 7 (Ok .... 5) pints of Ale in one night, but through choice I much prefer Ale. Lagers, by in large, taste vaguely similar within their own groups. I'd be able to tell the difference between Kronenbourg and Carling (Pish) but perhaps not between Kronenbourg and Heinneken. Ale on the other hand is much more distinguishable for me. The only problem is that I tend to go through so many different varieties that I never really become familiar enough with any single brand in order to be able to "pick it out".

BOF Posted February 25, 2011 Moderator Share Posted February 25, 2011 To my shame I once failed a blind taste test on 10yr Bushmills versus 16yr Bushmills. Though in my defence it was at the tail end of the night and I was already gee-eyed with barely functioning taste-buds And I still got to drink the one I preferred.

Phumfeinz Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 There's a young guy and girl at my work who fancy each other, they both know they fancy each other, yet they don't do anything about it. They always post ambiguous status messages to 'nobody in particular' on Facebook i.e. "You're amazing, I wish things were different.", always like each others posts no matter what they're about. At work they're like deers in headlights when they're in the same room though. Shy as **** and hardly say a word. It's infuriating. Just **** ask each other out.
