I do wish you Americans would learn what English words mean.
It is a fine pint of ale.Enjoy it on its own, not too cold (just below room temperature - say 10 mins in the fridge).It will be the equivalent of about 2.5 units of alcohol - in other words you would be well advised to wait at least a couple of hours before driving (after 1 bottle that is).It won't get you drunk (unless you have a remarkably low tolerance) but it should put a smile on your face []
I enjoy the odd pint of tangle foot - My recent beverage of choice has been another Badger beer - Golden Glory. Actually, I think I'll drink anything brewed by Badger Brewerys...
If you've enjoyed Tangle Foot then you might like to try Fursty Ferret, also from Hall & Woodhouse - it's not so strong (4.4%) but just as good.I send a bottle to my sister-in-law's German husband in Munich when anyone goes over - he's totally bewildered by the names of some of our beers. I've avoided sending him any Spitfire!
The Bishops Finger has put a smile on my face!!!!Sheepy, can I come around for vegie tempura. It is one of my favorite things to eat.....ever.

Does the alcohol really effect the taste ?...what does alcohol bring to the taste ?
I don't know what a bottle would do for people's motor function, but it seems to have upset their arithmetic."Thanks RD...well, it says on the bottle that it's 5%..I take it that means it's a lot then !!..gosh !!...and it's 500ml...just over a pint then.....so...how many units is that ?"A pint is 568 ml.
I get it! The British become ale connoisseurs since they haven't been able to grow grapes since Roman rule. I know, this is now changing, somewhat but I just cannot comprehend and Englishman droning on and on about wine as this thread has about ale.
