Default Need suggestions for food during LeMans race.

OK, this race is like my Superbowl and I want to get some food to watch the race. Don't want any greasy snacks and since I like good food have decided to get some salsa and chips and maybe a wine and cheese ball with crackers and some white grapes to go with it. Now here's where I want some advice. I have always loved imported beers and was wondering what would be a good beer to drink during the race. English beer ( To cheer on the Bentley Boys) or a good German stock ( To cheer on the Audi Team) or any other brand. Thanks

Many pilots of the time were the opinion that a fighter pilot in a closed cockpit was an impossible thing, because you should smell the enemy. You could smell them because of the oil they were burning.

For beer, I think you should try Stella Artois. You won't regret it.

Bass Ale or Newcastle would be pretty good, though as much as I hate to say it, The Bentleys aren't around anymore.

I thought I read that the Boys are coming back for LeMans? Oh dear :cry:
That Newcastle beer looks quite interesting as well.

Only one thing to it: you guys should rip the 24 hours, put it in a zip file and post it on Jabbas World.

We get it here on Speed TV . The coverage starts on Saturday, June 12 @ 9am EST I believe. That's this coming Saturday! They will be covering something like 18 hours of the race. The other hours are set for circle track coverage :roll: Thanks for all the suggestions guys! Will be seeing if all these companies have web sites. Never have tried Guiness. Wish I could just get a bottle of each brand.

I like kronenbourg 1664, Becks and Grolsch.
Don't like Ales or Bitters as they are not my type of drink. One of my friends said once it tasted like piss.
