Analysts and alcopops

2006-04-28

Its nearly the weekend. Last week, Duncan Chapple wrote a piece on analysts and wine. I said in the comments that I think he missed a few beverages, and I've added a few more here:

- real ale - a little nutty but better than the ordinary
- lager - bland, but reliable
- cheap whisky - best watered down

- port - you'd think it would improve with age but it doesn't
- good brandy - aging, but well formed and consistent
- vimto - sickly sweet but strangely endearing

- guinness - impenetrable
- caffeine free diet cola - so much taken out you wonder why its there at all
- alcopops - seems good at first but leads to confusion later
- "new" coke - invention beyond the call of necessity
- vodka - don't notice its there but makes a big difference

Any more?
