In Germany: I prefer a Radler (in the North of Germany known as Alster I think - but not sure of the spelling). It's half Pilsner beer and half lemon-lime or orange soda. I actually prefer the way they make it around Würzburg and Giebelstadt.
Anyplace else in the world: Corona with lime :o)

>>>>>>>>>>Thank you very much, and the same to you. And happy birthday (give or take a day or two).
>>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>>Why thanks, Tore. It's a bummer of a day for a birthday but dead easy when it comes to calculating age next such-and-such, etc.
>>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>>My nephew shares his birthday with you, so I know exactly how it is. I guess you mix "auld lang syne" with "Happy birthday to you"?
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>No, by the time "auld lang syne" is sung, after midnight, I'm already history (not that I'm centre of the universe to start, what with the overriding occasion), and I rarely get that sung anyway, for the same reason. Oh woe is me!

>>>>>>SO you're born December 31st? Mt nephew is born January 1st.

>>>>Do you expect me to notice of every little detail? It's my first day at work after a looong weekend, I don't even know if I have sobered up yet. :-))

>>>My loooong w/e was c. 2 weeks but feels just like a long w/e - and *I* remembered!
>>>
>>>Besides, how can you get drunk on that Danish gnat's p*ss? :-)
>>
>>When I'm at home, I rarely drink Danish beer. I have the same meaning of Dansish beer as Monty Python had of English beer: "Just like making love in a canoe; fu**ing close to water"! :-)
>
>Wasn't that from the "Bruce" australian sketch? What would they know? I don't know what English beer you'vre drunk but I'm happy staying with the 4.7% - could go higher but need my legs to get home. I'm talking mainly of cask ales now - not lager, as we don't do that all that well.

>Only joking about Carlsberg and Tuborg. I tend to drink, of the lagers, Red Stripe, Kronenburg 1664, Stella Artois ("wife beater") and maybe Carlsberg, if there's nowt else on draught :-) I really like Leffe but they'll only serve it in half-pint goblets over here and I'd have finished mine well before everyone else.
>>
>>Personally I prefer some Norwegian beer, plus Foster, San Miguel and the original Czech Budweisser, in most countries sold as Budvar.
>
>Gimme Budvar over Budweisser any day! But Foster's!? Chemical spillage more like! Have you ever let it get under your tongue? Try that and cf with other lagers
