You can scoop it all day and have a decent time, I couldn't imagine the nick I would be in if I had ten pints of something around 5.1% when out. Tell them about the nick you were in the day I introduced you to a certain small liqueur.........................................after umpteen pints of whatever Hampden serves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 You can't get it on draught in englandshire which makes it all the better when I get to scotland. In terms of a lager it's quite sophisticated there are various flavours in it and it has a real crisp taste. I have managed to find a sympathetic off license that gets me the cans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigdel6cans Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 nothing wrong with tennents! I tend to ask for a lager tops and not any particular brand of lager so I do get tennents most times. apart from the taste of hops you get in becks and pils type lagers (which I can't stand) most lagers just taste the same anyway. most dearer pints are similar in taste just some are a bit stronger and far more expensive! Lager tops ? Cocktail thread for this please.[emoji484] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurph Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 (edited) I work for a craft beer company and we have Tennent's on draught. It's unpasteurised which essentially means it's not pumped with preservatives and additives and it's fresh from the source, and the idea is you'd get less of a hangover drinking it. Some of my colleagues suggest the lager that we brew as an alternative, but if someone asks for a pint of Tennent's, a pint of T they get. I must have tried more than 400 different beers and a crisp pint of Tennent's is still up there. Edited October 14, 2017 by Smurph 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Ferrino Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 I'm as p.c. as they come, but please bring these back. Remember from funerals circa 78/79. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeTillEhDeh Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 The biggest issue with Tennant's is usually pub landlords who don't clean their pipes as frequently or as correctly as they should. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By far the best pint of T I've ever had. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted October 14, 2017 Share Posted October 14, 2017 Back in the day Tennents had to fight and beat off the stiff competition that was McEwans Lager and Skol. Anyone who thinks Tennents is shite hasn't drunk enough of those 2 impostors. Kestrel and Harp were even worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
