I had two pints of it today, it was nice, but not amazing. I would buy it again, in the heat it was preferable to carling.

I think Volc's mate is very bitter and has to resort to stereotypes to hate somthing he has no real reason to hate. Unless of course his whole family got run over by a magner's lorry.

Personally I don't like the stuff, too fizzy. Real ales/bitters for me

I think drink elitism is one of the worst kinds of elitism. Especially when it comes to lager. They nigh on taste exactly the same, its like starting a fight over which sliced white value bread tastes the best.

Too many people can't accept that people drink somthing because of the taste so have to invent some story about being won over by advertising. Even if they are swooned by the original celtic charm, ****ing let them, they are enjoying themselves you miserable prats!

dont know where it took off from, remember me and a few friends started drinking it around christmas time maybe just after at uni, in the local wetherspoons, and then in the easter term everyone was drinking it. and now im at home the usual pint drinkers have moved onto it. i love it because it is relatively refreshing. shame its relatively expensive for a poor unemployed grad like myself.

Whereas I think Fosters too fizzy and Carlsberg too full of wee

that'll teach you to leave your pint on the table at the last do

Gilly · 5 Jul 2006 at 01:08

Honestly though, Stella is the only lager worse than Carlsberg. Even Heineken rocks all over it

beckster · 5 Jul 2006 at 01:09

All lager = wee

the "new" Heineken is not bad at all

calnen · 5 Jul 2006 at 01:10

It does seem to have taken off, but I'm not sure why - Its allright but nothing special tbh. Give me my Kopparberg any time

merrydown medium vintage for the undeniable win. tis the best cider out there, doesn't taste as strong as it's 7.5% abv would suggest.

You forget Skol, dredged from rusty bilges of a Norwiegen cargoship. Mmmm.
