Autumnpuma 0 Report post Posted March 3, 2007 OK, I'm trying a novel (at least to me) little experiment. I've laid in a supply of beer for each GP weekend. The plan is to drink beer from each of the host countries. For Oz I've got Coopers pale ale. Malaysia and Bahrain will be difficult..... So, what's your drink of choice for a GP weekend?

For Italian GP, get La Rossa. Peroni's ok if you don't have good taste, which I'm sure you have. Will do.

monza gorilla 1 Report post Posted March 4, 2007 Cider with bubbles is not cider. Cider should have bits of peel and apple core floating in it. If you can see through it, it ain't cider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
