CharlieG Anchor Tetley's Lager? TETLEY'S LAGER????? G Snr will be spinning in his grave, God bless his soul.
Harvest Remember when Stella was marketed as 'Reassuringly expensive' when in reality it was just strong, fizzy pig piss?
Jon What’s the criteria you chaps use for buying cans of ale? How big a part do you think the names and colourful packaging play in you trying something new?
Travis_Bickle Jon that undoubtedly plays a part at first but I'm now such a craft beer wanker that I look for the type of IPA, the hops and the brewery. Some of the best names and can designs are flavoured stouts but I can't abide them.
l.q.navarro. Jon The colourful packaging is a real mystery to me ! As is this hazy looking pale ale stuff. Maybe I'm just a bit old school in that respect.
Anchor Jon Hops for me and IPA style. Not really interested in doubles or triples and usually plum for a New England. Anything that has Sabro in I wont touch with a barge pole. Tastes of stinging nettles.
Jon Travis_Bickle Looks like a minefield. I’d feel overwhelmed and probably just grab a six pack of Becks.
