What New Beer to Try

Indeed. I like my lager crisp and between 4.5-5.5 rpm, seems to be the sweet spot. Under 4% tastes watery to me and I'm not a fan of the heavy lagers. The Greek or Cypriot beers are nice, like Keo and Efes.

Ale can be between 3.5-7, with as much flavour as possible. I love the wheat beers and German, Belgian stuff too.

I brew an oak rum ale at 6.7% abv, it does not taste of a alcohol , just slight oak toffee and liquorice flavours.
It is fantastic, even my "lagerboy" friend said it was good.

I once enjoyed the German wheat beers like Erdinger, but recently I have found them to be too strong. I really love a Spanish wheat beer, Inedit. It's delicious.

That's a classy looking bottle. Funny, SWMBO is Spanish but I have not seen that one before. Will look out for it.

I get it on draft at my local Tapas restaurant.

I normally drink the 'normal' Estrella Damm and had not seen Inedit before. Just googled it and seemingly I can order it from my usual supermarket.

Having spent 8 years in Herford during my time in the Army, I can recommend Herforder Pils, which can be sourced in the UK.
