Great place. name of bar please

Elvis Juice is a good rear end beer though Greene King are my true enemies since they treated my GF like poo poo for 10 years and also took over the nice gastro pub with horses I used to go to as a kid and turned it into the same lovely greene King as everywhere else.

I mean in some places these days this wouldn't be such a concern anymore but there are still a lot of pubs and social clubs around where it is still the 1970s inside.

One thing i will say for punk ipa is that it was very much a babbys first craft beer for a hell of a lot of people and opened the door for a massive amount of success for smaller brewers No way we'd have so many students drinking all the small local brewers beer round here without it leading the way years back

Barry Foster posted:What ones aren't junk (placebo effect notwithstanding, since presumably that's all of them) I just grabbed the book, it's got a handy summary section in the back. Couple of quick examples: hypnotherapy/meditation/relaxation for some things, some evidence that leeches (!) can help osteoarthritis pain in the knee for some reason, osteopathy for back pain (but not for things that aren't muscles and bones, and not cranial osteopathy on babies!), and as Guava mentioned, things that are actual pharmacological agents inside plants. Looks like most of the other stuff they looked at is either unproven, based on implausible concepts, or downright dangerous. Real life example: my gastro specialist referred me to a hypnotherapist for functional dyspepsia (itself a wonderfully woolly diagnosis of exclusion, think IBS for the stomach), which has some evidence base, and (including placebo aspects) it really worked for me.

The real problem with Williamson is she's not actually nearly as wacky as she appears. She's basically a rich American blue blood with some woo packaging. Her Chapo interview was real damning how her rhetoric falls apart as soon as it would confront actual power. She wants to remove the psychic stains of evil from America but she's very pro military and isn't in favour of UHC. Which makes her full of poo poo.

Why do you need to front that you're getting boozed up when you're not and why does drinking soft drinks make you look like "a fanny"? Like post-prohibition in the US, there was a lot of promotion of beer over liquor and part of that was heavily marketing it as men men men men manly men, so it became a masculine trait even though the pre-prohibition masculine trait would have probably been drinking gallons of corn liquor until you died early, whereas in the UK there seems to be more a centuries long culture of men drinking beer that dates back to the church taking over brewing duties from cunning women, and the commercial element was more "big lager companies market lager over bitter, old men disapprove." It's mostly interesting in exactly how drinking some cereal suds is a performative part of masculine identity. Private Speech posted:Thinking about it isn't the term "fragile masculinity", i.e. making fun of ineptly "manly" behaviour in a way form of it's own toxic social perceptions? Like with stabby violence, it's not the fault of the knives despite what the libs say, and it's not the fault of 'colour' despite what the kippers say, it's in part the fault of reduced public spending, but reduced public spending has hit women and girls worse and yet they're not stabbing people (despite that presumably being an effective solution to street harassment) and so it bears thinking about why.

Alcohol free (or low alcohol, 0.5%) beer is nice at lunchtime or if I want something to drink that's not sweet or plain water. Many soft drinks are either full of sugar or sweetener and I don't always want a sweet drink. I don't want to drink alcohol free beer for the sake of drinking beer but because I like the taste (as long as it is a nice tasting one that is!) but don't always want the alcohol.

Fragile masculinity isn't inept manly behaviour though. Fragile masculinity is when men either do things they don't want to or do things that are really silly out of a desire to come across as more masculine. They're examples of how the patriarchy hurts men as well as women. There's some great articles on it by The Good Men Project which is a site I massively recommend.

A chemist once told me that as long as you drink enough methylated spirits, the 85% ethanol will competitively saturate the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme in the liver, preventing the 10% methanol from being converted to formaldehyde, so you'll get a lovely headache but won't go blind. I have not tested this and would not recommend it without further independent research, but need and needs must post-Brexit.

Alcohol free beer is good as a cold, refreshing drink that's more flavoursome than water but not loaded with sugar, or made to taste like it is. What other non-alcoholic drinks can you reliably get in a pub that fit that criteria?

I think it's poo poo but a lot of people I know (who like crap beer) seem to like the Heineken 0.0 stuff. Some of the Russian alcohol free beers are ok, and the alcohol free wheat beers actually taste like more than water with a chemically artificial beer flavour.

I think for some people it's that it's a non-sweet alcohol free drink. Most of the alcohol free stuff is either plain water, or sweet stuff, whether it's fruit juices, water with fruit, or soft drinks.

Also low alcohol beer is the good poo poo, I keep a fridge full of 2.6% 250ml bottles from Lidl (at 25p each!) because although it's just about possible to get a little buzz on, that doesn't happen if you're just drinking normally, and it's strictly impossible to drink really irresponsibly on nothing but that. Was getting acute alcohol withdrawal symptoms at the start of the year, quitting completely was really boring but sticking strictly to low alcohol stuff unless I'm out on the lash has got me drinking much like a normal person

Alcohol-free alcohol is good, I've found super cheap drinks in the past in the alcohol section of supermarkets that are alcohol-free so nobody wants to touch them with a ten foot barge pole, lest they catch the gay or something.
