The Tennents Lager Appreciation Society

Brewdog beer tastes like cooking lager that's had some heather or flowers mashed into it. Not the main reason to dislike them though.

 

Their pubs are populated by bearded, hipster wanks with sleeve tattoos and Glasgow University accents. They've also just forced a local pub to change their name (Lone Wolf) because it's the name of their new spirits range.

 

I'm a fan of Tennents and Brew Dog's stuff but that's a beautiful telt from T.  Brew Dog do come across as complete c***s, very much in the "trying too hard" category and every time I read "Equity for Punks" I want to go on a massive killing spree.

A bit rich of them to force a name change of another pub considering they use famous people/names to brand and market their beers (pretty sure Elvis Presley's people tried to sue them over their Elvis Juice?).

Probably the wrong place to post this - but hey, Pie and Bovril (beer?) is a caring, sharing place - but shouldn’t we be supporting the wee guys in this?

The only mistake Brewdog’s Twitter boy made was to pick on a corporate account which actually interacts with customers, thus creating an impossible fight. If they had mentioned Budweiser or Heineken, it’d just have come off as a not terribly original joke.

Tennent’s is vile.
^^^^ Brewdogs Twitter boy.

Imagine Brewdog, the preserve of hipster wanks and middle aged, boring wankers who spend their weekends washing the cars and go to the pub 3 times a year with "the boys" trying to get into it with Tennents though. Truly magnificent to see the very embodiment of their fan base pan out as a twitter spat.

Silly wee plan devised, pish patter deployed, utterly bodied, patter deleted in a wee huff.

C&C Group, owners of Tennents, recent valuation was £844 million.

Brewdog claim a value of £1.8 billion and are part owned by hedge funders.

Support the wee guys!

Especially when the big guy is a fanny and the wee guy is an absolute baller.

Well there you have it. I was way wrong!

Still prefer the BrewDog product.

Off to Edinburgh tonight to stay over for a wedding tomorrow so I'll be having a few T tonight watching the football and hopefully a full day of T tomorrow at the wedding before a further full day on Saturday hopefully watching rovers get the job done.

 

My only worry is the wedding venue seems pretty swanky and may end up being one of they wanky hipster places that don't sell Tennents. If that's the case I'll sneak of to some lovely establishment for my fix at some point.

You might be pleasantly surprised - fingers crossed for you. You're never too far from a T vendor in Edinburgh.

I hope so brother, I'm already Salivating at the thought of my first pint tonight.

 

This thread really is fantastic, great to see so many enthusiasts come together for a love of T.

Can always leave the reception early if it’s a sub-standard venue. Hopefully they respect the demand of people.
