Optimum Perpignan Windbreaker Rugby Top

Advantages: A bottle conditioned ale
Disadvantages: Very ordinary. It's not brewed in Rugby

...recommended (to prevent the disturbance of any yeast sediment) at 12ºC. THE DRINK. The bottle was at its optimum temperature at the time of removal of the crown cap. Rugby Ale pours a mid brown colour creating a short lived head. There is a good sparkle in the glass and a slight turbidity (I allowed part of the sediment to wash into the glass with the final beer). A small amount of yeast was also left in the bottle. The nose is vaguely yeasty with hops. The first taste is of moderate bitterness with a slightly sour undercurrent. The ale froths if held in the mouth. This is a very ?plain? ale with no appreciable development on the palate and no particular side flavours or undertones. That same degree of bitterness lingers long on the palate with a slightly metallic hint after swallowing. I drank my bottle on its own. I felt that all... Read review

Advantages: Fantastic family sport - much cheaper than football
Disadvantages: None.

.... Some if the offences that you will be awarded penalties for: High tackle - anything where the swinging arm makes contact with the neck or face as this is dangerous play. A good tackle should be made either around the legs of the trunk of the body. Incorrect play of the ball - not touched by a foot Forward pass - ball is passed forwards instead of backwards Holding down a player too long after tackle has been completed Flop - A player has tackled another player and tackle has been deemed to be complete and another player flops on top very late.

Some my argue that the lesser game of Rugby Union is better but they have to stop at every play of the ball for a scrum (rest) . Rugby league is... Read review

Advantages: Great entertainment
Disadvantages: None!

...Men of the world unite ? this is Top Gear. The ultimate car show. Forget the charade that is Fifth Gear over on Channel 5. BBC Two?s beloved Top Gear is the pinnacle of motoring shows. Made by the Beeb and hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond, this hourly show has been made for years now ? orginally it was more of a basic motoring review show with the likes of Clarkson and Tiff Needell, but it was completely revamped in 2002 and brought in May and Hammond to not only review brand new cars ? often sporty ones or ridiculous super cars ? but to task part in tasks to produce entertainment. The show isn?t religiously broken down into section but there are various parts of the show which occur each week. There?s always a ?Star in a Reasonably Priced Car? who will try a lap around the Top Gear track in a Chevrolet... Read review
