Ali-1874 Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Stella for me this summer I think. I really like it since they lowered the strength and there are normally decent offers on it (18 bottles for ?10 in Tesco). I've finally come to the conclusion that Bud (my previous lager of choice) is absolute pish. Just tastes like water compared to others. What is Carlsberg Export like? Is it a lager? It always seems to be on offer. I saw 20 cans for ?5 or something like that in Asda once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a couple of months ago. Wish I'd taken it when I saw it. It must've been a weekend only offer. I know Tesco did 18 bottles for ?6 so maybe that is what I saw in Asda as well. Will have to try it. 4 bottles for ?2 in Morrisons will do me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It always seems to be on offer. I saw 20 cans for ?5 or something like that in Asda once. Yup I picked up two boxes of the stuff a few weeks ago when it was on offer. The catch was it was ?5 for 15 smaller cans (like cans of coke size), still worked out as amazing value however as you have to remember Carlsberg Export is 5% content - stronger than your usual Tennents, Fosters etc. Anyhoo, I have to admit the past few months I've tried lots of beers. Trying to find my "best" combined with most affordable. Stella usually wins the shout, but Polish beers are very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InNothingWeTrust Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Whatever is on offer. I'm a student on a low paying job. I feel that is a good enough excuse. Deuchars is fantastic when not looking for something too chilled, but Kronenbourg is definitely one of my favourite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor FinnBarr Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 quite a bit of the beers from this place - http://www.westbeer.com/Our_Beer.html I think you'll find that is the type of company who allow a welding firm to do lots of work for them before (allegedly) the company accountant/director flees abroad with all the dosh leaving the welding firm with a massive unpaid bill (So called small creditors got nowt). The same accountant/directors wife then restarted the company whilst managing (allegedly) to avoid paying any of the so-called old companies creditors! A poster on this board who may have the words "jambo" and "biker" in his name was put on the road to redundancy because of this unpaid bill! I spit in their beer.

Gavsy Van Gaverson Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I've taken quite a shine to Corona myself tbh. Amazingly refreshing espeically on a hot day. Agreed. I had a few botles of Corona on Saturday and thoroughly enjoyed them. I may add that I also enjoyed the Strongbow, Magners, Tennents Ice Cold , Jack Daniels and Sambuca that I consumed. I was buckled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Colonel Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I was buckled. Yes, same! Smbuca is vile imo, it tastes like liqirous. I had a few ciders too, magners is a personal fav, and quite a few jagerbombs/jager shots. Jagermeister is evil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecjambo Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Tennents has become my new pint at my local. Sometimes can taste really good othertimes it tastes a bit iffy but thats usually just the first pint. In the house I have a nice 6 pack of Corona to be tackled soon. 2 six packs for ?10 at Asda just now. Also Cobra goes down a treat when its really cold. Tyskie and Lech from Weatherspoons are grand too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gershwin Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Peroni for me. love the stuff. The draw of Peroni is fuelled by its marketing campaign. Cause it's one of the worst tasting beers around. No more than Italian cooking lager. Did a blind taste test at work and it was by far the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the project spin totally out of control (allegedly) and the ***** running the show did not have the comman sense to take a step back before things went really bad. Also the case that the beer was so up and down it was never going to work. I know the guy who originally try to set it up, what is unreal is one of his mates is a top financial adviors at HBOS, surly he could have asked his advice ! Also i know alot of suppliers who were (allegedly) hit by the guy running off, i was surpised when they started dealing with the new company, long story short, crooks the lot of them ! what should be looked at, is the price that the suppose new owners paid for the business ! back on topic, a bottle of augustiner helles is called for in this heat !

Heh, the beer was up and down because the original welding was so bad that there was cleaning problems in the pipework for the micro-brewery side of things.

Disser Pointon Posted June 5, 2009 Share Posted June 5, 2009 Carlsberg is magnificent. Buffalo Bill . I also like Carlsberg and am currently supping on a bottle of their Tuborg. Didnt realise they made it just happened to be on special offer at ASDA and it is very pleasant. 10 quid for a case, nuff said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
