Saul The Wexfords is a clear beer but one of the best. Boddingtons is also one of my top five beers. Haven't had two of the beers you mention but I'll be looking for some when I get home. If you like Becks Dark you should definately try and get your hands on some Murphy's. Send me your address and I'll have my wife put something together for you.
I can't stand flavored coffee either. I used to go to meetings where they had the hazelnut flavored stuff and I couldn't drink it. It leaves a strong aftertaste and if coffee gives a person bad breathe, that hazelnut stuff was really awful. I like Kona, Columbian, and some of the private breakfast blends strong and black.

I have to agree that flavored coffee just isn't right, it seems...well kind of ghey . I like any East African variety primarily Ethiopian Yirgacheffe(sp)Kenya AA or Tanzanian Peaberry served black with no sugar. I also like cheap Robusta bean espressos like Cafe Bustello with steamed milk and lots of Splenda.
Also, I just ordered some Tanzanian Peaberry for $7.50 a pound from the place that smokum recomended http://www.cactuscreekcoffee.com ; I will post comments about the quality when the first cup is poured.

I'm with ya, one of my best friends worked at Starbucks for about 5 years, man, I think i've had just about everything in there. Speaking of drinks in plastic cups, he used to make this one drink, I have no idea what was in it except for the fact that he made us go to the supermarket before and buy a bag of oreos for him to crush up, when I say incredible, I mean incredible.
As for flavored coffee, I'll have one now and then but usually I just stick to regular, nothing fancy or some cuban coffees with some baileys, that's my favortie

I like a flavored coffee as long as it doesn't overpower the coffee flavor. One is a local "Southern Pecan" that just gives a "hint" of pecan and is a very satisfying Sunday brew

flavored coffee is for punks, if you really want to have a good cup of coffee pick up some Cuban coffee, Cafe Pilon or Cafe Bustelo are both excellent and not expensive at all. I may be a bit biased because I was raised on the stuff but you have to admit that it does make sense that a good cigar with a nice "colada" is just the perfect match

Cuban coffee is great, However Italian espresso in Italy is OUTSTANDING!!!

My friend in Tampa gets this Cuban Coffee from the grocery store(Publix)that is unbelievable I think it begins with an N and the bag is blue and black. I will find out what brand it is today and post it, this stuff is fantastic.

As a general rule I do not like flavored coffee, but for some reason I really like the Gevalia Hazelnut coffee. There is something about their hazelnut flavoring that really compliments their coffee. It is the only flavored coffee I have ever enjoyed.

Sorry, but Cuban coffee is not coffee. Sugar with coffee added to disolve the sugar is more like it.

I bet it pairs very well with a CAO though.

I dunno, sugar and sweet things tend to ruin the taste of a cigar for me. But black, fresh roasted coffee will enhance all the nuances of a good smoke.
