Spills, that's honestly one of the funniest posts I have read on this site, and there are quite a few funny ones.

Think about it for a minute...an Irishman who lives in Bermuda introduced an Australian to a Dutch beer while visiting the USA...boggles the mind!

Tourist wrote:Tooheys Extra Dry Platinum - Don't get me wrong, I wasn't expecting much, but this was beyond any beer I have ever tasted. Each sip (four sips total) was like putting your tongue on a 9V battery. Not exactly painful, but not pleasant. Had to piss in my own mouth to get the taste out.

Agreed...bought an 8 pack on the weekend while I was away because 1 of my mates drinks it after tennis so I thought id give it a crack....NEVER EVER EVER will I be asking him for a beer! Needless to say, 1/2 a stubby was poured down the drain & the remainder is still in the fridge for the next guest!

Without a doubt, Amstel mariner. Sucked in once with the 500ml cans but as the saying goes, you live an learn. Often wondered what that Aldi beers like, one thought back to mariner dispels any urges to purchase.

There are a few posts on Aldi beer.

Of the ones I've tried, they have been fine. They leave most commercial beers for dead.

The Wernesgruner or whatever it is, is not at all bad.
