maroonlegions Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 (edited) Who could last that. 🍺 Tennent's have launched Scotland's ultimate pub crawl – and are offering up a year's supply of beer to those who complete it first. Those behind the famous Scottish lager have put together a list of their 15 most spectacular places to enjoy a cold pint, with Edinburgh area bars among those included.

SUTOL Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Been to some, no inclination to go to others. However I am staying at one in a couple of weeks time. I will not be drinking Tennents though, that's for definite! 🥃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 The number of tourists I see come into a pub and order a Tennents because they want to drink something Scottish and it is the only name that they are familiar with. I want to tell them it is bland dish water but it has a high profile and brand recognition outwith Scotland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrekeo Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Found Tennents in a bar in Brisbane a few years ago promoted as ‘Artisan Beer of the Week’. That said, I don’t mind it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locky Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Used to think Tennents was pish, but now I like it. There's several more beers I'd rather drink regularly, and Tennents might just be the best of a bad bunch in terms of mainstream lagers, but I do enjoy a good pint. A shite pint can be had, but that's the respective pubs fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: Palatable. . . "Palate". Now there's a word you can also get about half a dozen spellings of, no matter which version of it you're meaning.

EH11_2NL Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 (edited) I always wanted to write a couple of their adverts. The ones where they miss out the 'T'. For instance 'Wha a shie pin of beer his crap is'. But I do like this advert Edited August 14, 2019 by EH11_2NL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobNox Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Not a fan of Tennent's, but was at The Wellpark with my eldest daughter a few years back and they do an unpasteurised version. My daughter is a Tennent's fan so tried a pint. I had a taste, and it wasn't bad at all. It was much more akin to a real ale than the gassy pisswater that is normal Tennent's. I still didn't buy a pint mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
