Hi all,
Been a lurker for many a year and have finally decided to take the plunge into the world of forums. For those interested I'm 25, studying Geology at uni and sit in South Africa Rd.
What bugs me is the crap beer they serve in the stadium. I remember being able to get a pint of Tetleys (I think?) in the old season ticket bar which wasn't bad and in the platinum bar I could get a small bottle of ale before the game but now I settle for cider poured from a pump labeled Carlsberg. Admittedly I only have to fork out 80p with the vouchers but I'd really like to see one of these premium European lagers served behind the counters.
I've noticed, mainly in post match interviews, that lots of Premier League teams have "beer partners". Mainly far eastern ones such as Chang (Everton) and Singha (Man U and Chelsea) and we have sodding Carlsberg. I did hope a few years back with all the rumours of the Kingfisher Stadium naming that we would get Kingfisher beer which I think isn't half bad, especially with a curry.
So my question to any seasoned travelling fan is:
Do any of the stadiums of the above mentioned teams sell the beer of their sponsoring partner, and does any non rugby stadium in the country sell a decent pint?
And my cheese changes week by week but I'll go for halloumi, even though I don't think of it as a cheese. |  | | |  |

At Fulham we have a really good selection - a variety of British real ales, American Craft beers, Belgian Trappists, Czech lagers and some fantastic German Weiss beers. All on draught and all served in excellent nick.
Not really. We sell plastic bottles of warm Calrsberg for about £18 a pop. |  |

Before Brighton opened their new ground, they said that at every match they would serve a guest ale at the bars from a brewery near where the opposition team were from. Now thats a good idea. |  |

Apologies for halloumi, but its so damn delicious. I do love cheddar, but that would be too easy. How about Cracker Barrel or Laughing Cow? | | | |

Nice rhyme. If halloumi was cheaper I'd happily go veggie, also I must admit I go to Nandos almost for their halloumi alone. | | | |

Welcome Buck
used to be at Manure away you got your lager in a plastic bottle with a Manure label on it.
With our owners we should be looking at King Cobra on tap.
This weekend I will mostly be eating Guyere. |  |

A decent beer at Loftus Road would be one of the signings of the season, guess it would have to be South East Asian so:
Tiger (Singapore)
San Miguel (Philippines *not a lot of people know that)
Singha (Thailand)
Chang (as well)
If we have to stick with the Carlsberg link we could go for Halida Beer (Vietnam) brewed by Carlsberg or this from Malaysia:

Carlsberg are the sponsor at Loftus Road.
The concession company serving the beer use the lowest common denominator - therefore it's teh cheapest option "carlsberg" which can also be served in PET - plastic bottle. if Carlsberg really wanted to roll out brands, they actually own San Miguel and a few other premium lagers but the concession company will be squeezed to the pips, so it will be the cheapest option for all of you....
I'd love to get the concession at QPR - I could revolutionise the way football fans are served alcoholic and soft beverages..... |  | | |

Carlsberg really is the worst of the worst in socialbly acceptable beers/ By that I mean others like Super T, Kestral etc would fare worse but then if you got caught drinking one of those 99% of people would assume you had a problem.
I always assumed Carlsberg Green was sold due to it's weak p*iss water content, thus not encouraging dickheadedness behaviour at the ground?
The beers in Munich last weekend were without a doubt the best in the world, but having a sensible guess on what I would like to see served at LR, it would have to be Carlsberg Export. Does give me a quicker then average result and just above the thin line not leave you needing a head transplant in the morning. |  | | |

Just out of interest what beer did you indulge in?
I love German beer and German supermarkets are heaven, they usually are subdivided with groceries/toiletries/bakery/deli = one half.. then beer emporium = the other half...with literally thousands of baskets laden with bottles of the finest beer.
Morrisons now sell bottles of Furstenburg (£1.45) and the odd poncey pub/bar will sell you a pint of Rothaus (both Black Forest beers) but it will leave you with little change out of a fiver. | | | |

I frequented this little Gem on the Street "Zum Spöckmeier"
Weather was great, ambience set tried and tested their list of beers. Some dark and heavy, others lighter but the flavour was awesome, and no lingering aftertastes you sometimes get on strong beers.
Paulaner Original Münchner Hell
Paulaner Original Münchner Dunkel
Paulaner Hefeweissbier
Paulaner Dunkles Weissbier
Fürstenberg Premium Pilsener
You have to respect this stuff, as it will knock you the f*ck down if you give it some. Stuck to the 0.5L's mainly and still got wrecked.
Great food served there too, knucke of pork, falls off the bone, sauerkraut on the side, great sausages to share amoung followers.
God, I wanna go back right now!

sounds great - didn't indulge in any Stein activity then? Had a brilliant time time in the Viktualienmarkt in the centre of Munich last year just sat there amongst well-behaved, yet boisterous Bayern and Schalke fans - no hint of trouble even though they were probably necking 6 litres of lager a piece.
I think you can only get Paulaner Weiss on tap, yet in poncey pubs - HB is a great beer too | | | |

Top call.
Pork on the knuckle is Eisbein (boiled) or Schweinhaxe (roasted), and the best bier, without a double, is Augustiner, the oldest brewer in Munich. Paulaner pretty close second though.
It's good to be anal about something. |  | | |

I had the pleasure of going to Munich a few years ago and I gotta say after Bruges it's my beer heaven. Went to a place called the Paulaner Beer Garten, tried this unfiltered lager which might well be one of the best beers I've ever had. Our waiter said it was brewed on site in the huge copper tanks we were sat next to. I'm itching to go back. | | | |
