    The best session lager in the world. A nice pint of Ice Cold beats anything anywhere, and I’ve tried just about them all.

    That’s why I go through 88 pints of the stuff every couple of months. Nectar.

    Tennents Special. We used to bump my pals dad's out the fridge. A sinister potion.

    I actually prefer it with a small dash of lemonade. Not enough that makes it a “Tops”. Just a skoosh. It’s one of the best lagers for it. Some lagers are rancid with it though. Odd.

    Its extremely ordinary but consistently decent out the pump. Never had a bad one but its as run of the mill as you can get flavour wise.

    Hop House 13 or St. Mungo are the only lagers I’ve actually refused to finish my pint. * honking.

    You've clearly never been to The Turnstiles or the Springfield Vaults. You'll get a top quality bad pint in there for u to try

    No I don't think I have, usually go sheddens pre-match or oak bar then into town post-match when we're up. Tend to take a Guinness as well.

    They also boast a Trainspotting toilet for you to sample.

    The tennents in those places has a unique eggyness to the flavour. Comes from the pipes very rarely being cleaned (centenary season 87/88 i believe) . People go for the unique eggy taste and special flavour and it brings them back every week

    Going along Duke Street today and there's some shop there called The OofTlicense, has all big red T's for Tennents. Can't mind what was there before but it must be pretty new.

    It'll come from the fact that the pipes (unless cleaned weekly) only get pulled through once a week as it's only opened weekends generally.

    Can smell a * pint before it touches thy lips anywhere.

    I can assure you, come down here and see the tractors pulling in the apple to the processors and you will never touch a drop again. A more rotten, maggot ridden source of apple, it will be hard to find anywhere lol. But as the advertisement goes, a mixture of x amount of apples lol.
