Bristolhibby Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 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
Brummie Hibs Posted September 1, 2015 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.

Brummie Hibs Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 I bought some non-Georgian beer and some more bog paper too...and I know I won't get any thanks for it either.
Tartan BGS Posted September 1, 2015 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 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.
SY Cove Posted September 1, 2015 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
scotswarrior31 Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 I second the nataktari....great beer.
Brummie Hibs Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Just had some Konig Pilsner up the Funicular Restaurant - very nice indeed (beer, view and restaurant)
wheres the pies Posted September 1, 2015 Posted September 1, 2015 Just had some Konig Pilsner up the Funicular Restaurant - very nice indeed (beer, view and restaurant) a fine beer indeed is that no the beer that's made in Duisburg ? had one or two when over for the Germany game last year
SY Cove Posted September 2, 2015 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
Bristolhibby Posted September 2, 2015 Author Posted September 2, 2015 Chacha anyone? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chacha_(brandy) J
rossh Posted September 2, 2015 Posted September 2, 2015 Don't know about the Georgian beer but we are currently in Riga and the beer is lovely ?
SY Cove Posted September 3, 2015 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 ;-)
OLAS Posted September 3, 2015 Posted September 3, 2015 Bought some home made chacha last night. Strong is an understatement.
SY Cove Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Was on the chacha last night,head is absolutely burst today, been puking yellow most of the day, they don't seem to sell nurofen in Tbilisi
sneckiebairn Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Was on the chacha last night,head is absolutely burst today, been puking yellow most of the day, they don't seem to sell nurofen in Tbilisi If you're still needing it, ask for ibupropeni.
sporranmaster Posted September 6, 2015 Posted September 6, 2015 Agree Argo was ok - as was the Red Wine!
