Chelsea vs Aston Villa Post-Match Thread EFL 3rd Round.

[Rory]

Sat in the Caddogan Arms on the Kings Road nursing a £6.50 bottle of beer feeling very pleased with what I've seen tonight, despite losing the lottery at the end.

We have some seriously good kids.

How much!? I'd make that last all night.

Fabal lager, whatever that is!

Vegan lager, I kid you not.

Most lagers and beers are vegan. The other press release for it was it was exclusively English ingredients and made with both pressed and steamed barley. So all English and costs alot more. Sounds like they are aiming for a certain crowd really.

The non-vegan bit is usually finings. I don't know how many modern beers use a non-aquatic substitute because modern life is rubbish.

All but these four from the popular big brands it seems

Carling
Coors Light
Foster’s
Kronenbourg 1664

Yes, they're the big ones that still use isinglass for filtration. The website Barnivore is what I use to determine what I can and cannot drink.

Lager is usually okay (apart from Carling, Fosters and Kronenbourg) but lots of ales are not vegan or even vegetarian.

Wine is a mixed bag, with the problem being that the makers don't specify on the label and supermarkets don't have to.

Awful
Atrocious
Poor
Half-decent

Yep, 1664 is the only one that is any loss to vegetarians/vegans.

Rancid...all four of them

Anyway, back to the match...

[Percy McCarthy]

This is the really forgotten penalty shoot-out.

I’ll never forget that one. Ran down from the back of the Holte to right behind the goal. Great stuff.

Ace. Thank you.

[BC Villain]

Don't see how ducking a out of a cup competition can be seen as anything other than a negative. 

We're not going to get relegated, so why at least make an effort in the cups, as opposed to deciding we can't be arsed?

Did you even watch the match?

Yes I did.  I was very disappointed that we didn't have some of our big hitters at least on the bench.  Not disputing the effort of the players who were on the field, but I am disputing the effort of the coaching staff's team selection.

The first 2 are woeful everywhere
The latter 2 are just about passable only in their country of origin. I am being kind to both

[Rory]

It's always disappointing to go out of the competition that represents our best chance of winning something. I'm not going to criticise anybody, but every time we get knocked out of the League Cup, it is a kick in the balls.

[dorsetvillian]

The future at Villa is very bright.

There are many fine local beers in Aus but I can't recall seeing Fosters too often on draft. Something about only exporting their crap around the world (VB aside which is vile). Stella is another rancid mainstream (UK) one. Tennents popular in Scotland and the north of Ireland, piss too.

Recent trip to Portugal, Sagres and Superbock...lovely stuff

[Brazilian Villain]

I normally try and drink the local beers wherever I go but both 'Kalik' and 'Sands' in The Bahamas were absolutely shocking.

[Pete3206]

Superbock is ace!!

[Legion]

I thought they were OK.

I've only been within Europe - France, Germany, Poland, all beers were fantastic. I like a Red Stripe when I can find it.
