Unfortunately,one small swig inevitably leads to a larger swig and then many large swigs...what was the question again?

EoinC,

In Australia we have the saying that at times; "Too much of a good thing is barely enough."
Its our take on: "When one is too many and a hundred is not enough".

The origonal problem was something to do with carrying beer on your bike.

Seems you've got it sorted out. Carry it in your belly.

One down side to this approach is that no matter how much you drink before you start, you still seem get thirsty along the way.

A perplexing problem; How do you gage just how much you should drink before you start so that you don't get thirsty until you finish your run?

Kind regards,

I had a couple of decent bottled beers today; Ruddles Orchard, a beer made with apples, but beer, not cider; and Greene King Ale Fresco, a light summer beer. Both were good, but the Ruddles was very good.

sorry to be pedantic (Am I really?), but Bintang is actually brewed in Java. Bintang is owned by Heineken and they have 1 Brewery in West Java at Tangerang (near Jakarta) and 1 in East Java at Sampang Agung (near Surabaya). Even Bali Hai beer is not brewed in Bali. It comes from Bekasi (near Jakarta). The only brewery that I am aware of in Bali is Storm Brewing (a microbrewery in Denpassar).
Sorry, I really can be a pedantic prick when I want to be, but beer is.....beer, mmmmm, beer - whoa, got distracted there. The mainstays in Indonesia used to be Becks, Bintang and Anchor. Times have changed now with several others (including San Miguel...mmmmm, an icey-cold San Miguel Pale Pilsener...mmmm) moving into the market.

EoinC,

Everything you say is true but Bintang is the most commonly available beer in Bali.

Along with the others you mentioned, Fosters Lager, Malaysian made Carlseburg & Singaporean Tiger are also about.

Kind regards,

The market over here in Malaysia has really opened up in the last couple of years. In Sarawak the cheapest beer to buy in a bar is now Skol! The regular Malaysian-brewed Tiger, Carlsberg, Heineken, Anchor and Guiness are as profuse as ever, but there has been a flood of cheap regional imports which undercut the locally brewed majors. These started with Chang from Thailand, but went on to include Thailand's Leo, Cambodia's Angkor, Indonesia's Bali Hai and Vietnam's Huda.
I usually homebrew (full grain) but, since I left KL to come to Sarawak, my fridge floweth over and I haven't put down a brew since January.
My personal regional (SEA) favourites for mass-produced beverages are Beerlao and Myanmar Lager (perhaps not a political winner, but it does taste mighty fine). When I'm back up in Thailand, Chang is my bevie of choice.

was a long time ago, yes, i have dim but fond memories from when pitchers of bass pale ale were 3.75 usd in santa cruz.

another fave was superior, a mexican light beer mandatory with straight white tequila.

Browsing Tesco's recent additions to thier repetoir of beers i found some proper american stuff. I bought two bottles (party on dude).

One called Brooklyn Brand Lager, imported from NYC and one called Sierra Nevada brewed in Chicago

I have only tried the Brooklyn one so far and i have to say its a bit like a strong scottish beer.. 5.2% very malty, strong and tasty, not like a lager at all, and certainly not like an american lager..

so far, I LIKE!
