It's probably the same thing with beer in that we don't really appreciate a full-flavoured pint that's packed with character, until we get that little bit older.Paul Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09678639237696546268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-79404577535922881572013-06-12T22:55:44.026+01:002013-06-12T22:55:44.026+01:00Funny you should say that but I used to much prefe...Funny you should say that but I used to much prefer rubbery mild cheddar to tangy mature stuff.Edhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13844169940650659196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-75108130318998539762013-06-12T21:23:21.416+01:002013-06-12T21:23:21.416+01:00Ed, there are a lot of people out there who don...Ed, there are a lot of people out there who don't like full-flavoured, assertive cheeses either, but it's interesting to see this sort of feedback. The number of drinkers I know, who are not CAMRA members or in any way connected with beer geekery, who say Doom Bar is a fantastic beer is legendary.<br /><br />Horses for courses I suppose, but one we ought to take on board outside our own rather closeted world of beer appreciation.Paul Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09678639237696546268noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-64240325342844156132013-06-12T10:33:47.653+01:002013-06-12T10:33:47.653+01:00Well, yeh.Well, yeh.Cooking Lagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02830924433230427226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-90811350648420403522013-06-12T09:30:28.087+01:002013-06-12T09:30:28.087+01:00See also.<a href="http://ohgoodale.wordpress.com/2012/05/02/whats-the-matter-here/" rel="nofollow">See also</a>.Philhttp://ohgoodale.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-41698123600919906222013-06-12T09:24:47.318+01:002013-06-12T09:24:47.318+01:00Very true that.Very true that.Tandlemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804499573827044693noreply@blogger.com
