JMDP Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Living in England, it's a rare pleasure getting a pint of T. Looking forward to savouring fuckloads of it for the next three days that I'm in Scotland. As it goes, my local down here does the following on tap, in my preferred order: Peroni, San Miguel, Coors Light, Stella, Carlsberg, Fosters, Carling. Not a great choice tbh. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we exclude the fact that you are clearly wrong and Tennents should be top of that list, I endorse your thoughts on Estrella. When my sister was living in Spain you could get a litre bottle from the local super market for EUR 0.59 a pop. Outstanding value for money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All that’s wrong with that list is that Tennents isn’t top. Estrella & The Innis & Gunn stuff is glorious though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Imagine taking your mum down the pub just so she will buy you a pint. Now now.... Everyone knows that a pint always tastes that little bit better when someone else is buying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stimpy Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 You know why I drink Tennents? Because usually it's all the pub has in the generic lager stakes. Like the sun giving away copies of their monstrosity to boost circulation figures, it's been your standard lager since your first trip to the pub and you just don't know any better. You should want better, you should demand better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross. Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 In Slouch in Glasgow catching up with a few ex colleagues. Lovely pint of T just poured. Welcome home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Estrella and Innis & Gunn are probably the tip top of what you can expect to get in most decent pubs around here but if I'm out with the lads and don't want to come across as a flash c**t I'll order a T and enjoy the comfort it brings. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyCromarty Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 It may have been mentioned previously but there was a time when all we could get in Scotland was Tennents or McEwans, then in the early seventies I remember the Co-op stocking bottled Belhaven, now the shelves are stacked with a vast array of beer choice. When I was in Ben Line in the late sixties onwards the company stocked the ships bar with Tennents only on draught and then on arrival in Singapore we changed out to Tiger for the far east leg and then homeward. The Japanese beer Kirin was founded by a Fraserburgh man. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Naitch Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Out in town celebrating my birthday with the other half and it’s tennent’s all the way. Disappointingly Katie’s bar doesn’t have it on draught so didn’t hang around there long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 5 in Slouch went down very well. Brief pit stop to drop the case off at my old dears and popped round to see the faither. Now in my local with a freshly poured pint of vitamin T. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
