When we were visiting Azores, last July, we almost fell in love with the local vinho verdi. We have now renewed our acquaintance and are steadily working our way through as many varieties as we can. T'is a wonderful 'green' wine and well worth visiting Minho (N Portugal) where it emanates from. Unfortunately it's only available in glass bottles, which means we've a lorra glass to dispose of properly.  Another of our more recent accomplished necessities has been to find a decent (low price) beer (in cans). This might sound easy but it looks like the Portuguese prefer their beer in bottles. T'other day we settled on two different varieties (both mongrels) on shelves in local Lidl. Pushing the boat out, we bought two of each to blind taste-test. In between some delightful vinho verdis, we opened a can of each beer. Summarising, I liked the one Sue didn't give me and Sue liked the one in the red can, which were obviously same! Hence today we stopped at a Lidl and loaded-up. Very expensive beer in red cans costing €1.99 - 6 pack. Now that's pretty good value for decent tasting beer in red cans we thinks.......... and makes the parking fine more affordable too!
