Bristolhibby Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 (edited) Can the advance parties answer some questions? So what's the brand of choice? What are the options? Any favourites? Is there a Slovenian like standoff between brands (Goat lager v the red brand lager)? J Edited September 1, 2015 by Bristolhibby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Hibs Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Its all German beer on draught here. Had a bootled Georgian one yesterday - a kind of dark lager. Was in a metalic green bottle - not bad. Just bought 4 gold cans of some sort of Georgian beer and put them in tge apartment's fridge ready for the lads turning up tomorrow.

Tartan BGS Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Local beers include Argo, Kazbegi and Natakhtari. Argo do a dark (black) beer in bottles which I've developed a bit of a taste for. For the fridge, there's a wide range of big plastic bottles in supermarkets eg branches of Populi or the big Carrefour near the flower market (at that one they make you leave bags in a locker as you go in).

Tartan BGS Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 For those medicinal moments, in the absence of hot and cold running Irn Bru, I recommend taragoni - tarragon lemonade. Again you can get big bottles in supermarkets. Bright green, looks like mouthwash, tastes of ...er ... tarragon. I like it with a shot of Georgian brandy in it - but that's regarded as a bit odd. A cult drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SY Cove Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Go for Nataktari, that's the best, Argo is no good, there's another one I've tried but can't remember the name, it wasn't good though The wine is superb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SY Cove Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Depends where you drink on the price of a beer, Shardeni/Bambis Rigi Street closer to 2 quid, go away from the main drag and it's a pound and less Get cider in the Irish bars, Hangar and MacLarens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SY Cove Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 If you want bruised arms and no recollection of anything go for chacha, if not..... Stick to Nataktari :-) That's my advice from last weekend but I had some chacha last night ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
