    re: San Miguel isn't Spanish

    This got me thinking...


    An English man...a Spaniard...but a Japanese?? or a Portuguese????


    Doesn't sound right at all...annoys me a wee bit that they couldn't think up some way of distinguishing between nationality and singular man.

    The San Miguel you drink in this country will be brewed and bottled in Northampton under licence by Carlsberg...I have got crates of the stuff in the garage.

    surely when holding company and beer split on liquidation the san miguel was bought by a spanish company.

    as confirmed by all the important people, uefa, fifa, lord pedro, the ASA and campbell ogilvie.

    San Miguel only tastes good in Spain, maybe it's the holiday placebo effect I don't know. But any time I've drank it here it tastes of pish water.

    Pretty sure everybody knew this. One has to remember that the Philippines used to be Spanish hence a lot of Spanish-sounding words going about.

    It tastes good in the Philippines too.

    I know what you mean about pints of pish though, I had a pint of it in the UK that was definitely urine based.
