I see what you did there!

😂

Correct. I just picked up the budvar keg from food warehouse, for £18.

16 quid in Home Bargains

Just bought a box in bargain booze for £12.

I got a box for £9

Bud Lite: the beverage pretending to be a beer, advertised by a man pretending to be a woman.

Neither of them are beer. They're piss water masquerading as beer, just like Dylan Mulvaney is a man masquerading as a woman.

You'll get people drinking this trash in England. English beer is revered by beer lovers all over the world, yet people in England will drink this in preference to our own amazing beers which are part of our culture. These people are not the most inspiring, inquisitive or intelligent it has to be said. And I'm being generous there.

Also US born and bred, the craft brew movement has brought some interesting flavors. Back in the ‘80’s the only good beers were imported. Really loved the English imports like Fuller’s ESB, the Old Peculiar, as well as various ales and stouts.

3. someone bet me 100 quid I didn't dare to drink a pint of horse piss and I took the bet, then wanted to prove him wrong, and guess what, I won 100 quid!

....but now your slugs are insisting on the "correct" pronouns....

Then someone turns up with Fosters 😮🏃

No that would be the one that also had veggie burgers and sausages...

@@thomasterdington3181 hell yeah

We had that coors in the pub I worked at, called it fine light beer then and I'm sure it was about 5.2 % then, sadly not been like that for years.

@@davidcalvert5849 I think you're right about the ABV... I never drink any lager less than 5 percent unless it's Pilsner Urquell... So it must have been at least 5 percent....

@theseeker3771 yeah at least 5 I remember a few of our regulars who tried it when it first came on were a bit surprised at the strength and ended up in right states 🤣

Although my tastes in beer have changed, I did quite enjoy a pint of Coors when it was first introduced to the UK. Obviously not a drink to be considered in its UK brewed form though.

Michelob Ultra. It didn't even taste as strong as fizzy water.

Muller light. Like dish water and you were peeing within 15 mins. Turned me into a water feature between the ages of 16 and 22

Must make those frat parties just motor

JVC in his loafers 🤣 agreed it was a decent beer when it first appeared, it was either 5% or 4.5% if I remember rightly.

good

It's tasteless and doesn't get you pissed unless you drink a stupid amount

But fizzy piss is just another name for Bud Light!

It will be. Probably worse.

You bought a crate?!!!! By the time you’ve finished it you’ll have had the equivalent of a whole bottle of wine

budget lagers are generally really good and the best of the supermarket brands are made by some brewery with some kind of status it's a matter of preference really among the 5% guys, when you do a true test, you should just isolate it on the ones you already prefer by taste profile it's not that the others are objectively worse, but you can pick them out because you particularly are not as fond of their taste profile, i kind of pick them out by deduction, and the top ones are almost indistinguishable to me because i like their profile as a nice crisp drinker it's like you almost mostly taste the water quality more than anything else there are exceptions, of course, like particularly hoppy ones, or some being particularly citrussy/acidic ones, some of them have this almost white beer thing to it because they are particularly not-hoppy too, personally i sense that a bit more with the german cheap lagers :D then theres beers they put syrup in too, the sugary ones, like amstel, 1 cold one on a summery day is fun, but you can't keep drinking them, heineken is even regular heineken is more refreshing and ultimately dirnkable then i'm Dutch by the by, for perspective i also happen to live ~10 kilometers away from the original Heineken factory in Zoeterwoude (they provide a shit ton of jobs around here, since they went big time international in 1971) the heineken ships go through the rhine canals to the port terminal of my town (of which they funded 80% orso), before heading to rotterdam so we get to have these extra fresh ones in stores in the viciinity too, they are green bottles, but are brown paper wrapped too, and upsold as a premium product delivered within 24 hours from the production line and has no silly conservatives/additives and the such, so their shelf lifeof being good is way limited to only 2-3 weeks or so too, gotta say, they're really nice and refreshing that way, basically heineken with reinheitsgebot principles :D

@@dutchdykefinger Rheinbacher from Aldi and Perlenbacher from Lidl are the best supermarket lagers!

@@captainmeatsadventures7954 Here in Southern Germany we have only Karlskrone (as an Aldi brand) at Aldi Süd. This could be translated as Charles crown...😂😂😂 Now he finally got it...😂😂😂

@@martinkasper197 I know it and have drunk the odd one but I don't remember where. It wasn't the worst I've had when we lived over there. There were some dreadful local pilsners up in the north-west of Germany thirty odd years ago, that have mostly gone now, thankfully?

They beers are made By tennents

Coors was brilliant back then. And was considered "posh" when the other options were either Carling Black Label or Tennents.

They still make Coors Banquet, (the one in the gold can/bottle).

We could get it back then on draught at Stamford Bridge, when Coors sponsored the shirts @'93-94. As mainly an ale drinker I never found even the old version that good, it had a bit of an odd taste compared to things like 1664 and Stella which were still original full strength imports back then, probably?

@@johnp8131 it was still mass produced American lager that used rice. But it had some flavour unlike bud and wasn’t as sickly sweet as miller. Of course now we’re getting spoiled with really good stuff from across the pond .

Coors gold in a can is one of my favourite beers. Can't get them in the UK at all anymore.

Chances are the Coors you back then was brewed in America and was better than the generic dull lager we get in the UK. UK lagers are always to be avoided. Most beers have hugely degraded in quality over the past twenty years.... Many are a shadow of their former selves...so many people just don't notice.. they just stick with the brand... It's strange behaviour.

Saw Krombacher on Draught today for the first time locally near Cambridge. Every other pub used to sell it, as it was one of the main regional pilsners when I lived over in Germany 30 years ago.

@@johnp8131 I used to love Bittburger, that for me was the best German lager... but again in the past 15 odd years it is unrecognisible. It's not just beer, it's also Scotch whisky they do this to. Cut costs and 'soften' the flavours so nothing is too distinctive and everything is just kind of dull and in the middle... nothing too pronounced or striking in the flavour profile, just safe and dull for the consumer. Anyone remember how amazing and distinctive Holsten Pils in the 90's used to be for instance? I think it used to be 5.5ABV.

Yes!

I agree 100%@@Heaven-dy9lj

Trouble is it's as rare as "Rocking horse sh!t" where I live! I think there's one pub six miles away the sells Elgoods "Black dog" and another over ten miles away that occasionally has the very rare Greene King XX mild?

You get some decent 4% session hazy IPA

I have, check out my review

Seems the majority of people aren't as keen on blokes in dresses as ab inbev thought

@@pompeyjim Yeah, Budweiser didn't think that one through AT ALL. They should have known that the majority of their consumers are good ol' boy Republican types who don't take kindly to that.

by the Budflakes.

yeah never thought that thingie would actually tip over so much of the population to such a tangible degree, seeing as how much of it was already pretty much to the point of normalized by the twitterati they flew a bit too close too the sun with those identity politics lol but hey, now we see the aftermath on the entertainment industry as a whole of those antics too they just had a delayed onset because of cooking the books lol this entire disney thing is quite the thing to behold, major pushback seems to be getting more real every day

@@vladtepes9614 snowflakes

In fairness, those beers are for people who want to 'get on the piss' for cheap. If you enjoy a good beer, you don't drink them. We have a very healthy craft industry and just about every local has a decent selection. Too many to name but Simon's reviewed a fair few

We do indeed! Though drinking good beer is getting more and more expensive at a very rapid rate, and breweries are still going bust even after the price hikes - I am somewhat worried about what the damage will be in the next 3-5 years, with the best will in the world not everyone can afford £7.50 a pint down the pub or £4 a can to drink at home.

@@ZX-wy1tw You cant "get on the piss" with beer this weak. You would have to drink a huge number of cans and you'd probably get an upset stomach before you could consume enough alcohol! Lol!

@@peterm7548 I assume he's talking about the mass produced full strength stuff on tap at many of our pubs, and the cheaper slabs of tinnies at the local bottle shop. VB, XXXX and so on. Thanks for the lesson in beer consumption and very respectful comment

@@jackharrison5695 True mate I was just talking with someone about this very topic yesterday. A pint of craft beer will set you back at least $15 here, often closer to $20. Micro brewery runs and special/limited release cans seem to have climbed a bit since last year and you're often not getting much change from a $20.

Tot mai bine un csiki sor

Sick burn

Agree. Used to see this as a way to discover new beers. Not sure I’ve discovered anything at all watching this. Like a low level entertainment show - be interesting to see the ratio of these sort of reviews now to proper beers

Taxes, higher ABV, higher tax so brewers are encouraged to brew crap cheap low abv beer for the same or higher prices than they did before to keep their profits up. Just buy imports, plenty of sites do them.

Personally I'd pour a can into a glass and leave a minute, but happy to drink out of a glass bottle. Had some Heineken recently and the bottled was much nicer than the canned.
