For those have haven't tried it.... Don't bother. Too watery & not as good a creamy head as Guinness. I've tried it. The head looks like that RAAC concrete they're taking out of schools. It tasted like it too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect for similar reasons. I know this may sound a bit out there to the moneymen but this is the reason I don't buy it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect they must do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nowack Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 This answers a lot, I thought it was just me. I think they have pushed the vanilla flavour in the UK one a little bit too far and it overtakes everything. At least I don't remember it being such a strong flavour.

Traf Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Alcohol duty is calculated on ABV, isn’t it? If Leffe drops 10% in strength, the company makes more money by selling at the same price. shrinkflation strikes again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is based on percentage points so 6-6.9 is the the same pence per litre. So in this case no change, happy to be corrected though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always seems cheap as chips. My new favourite is Augustiner though!!! Woof A mate of mine had me walking all over Belamondinio for 1.50Euro Alhambra one year. Good drink but the for him the price was the thing. We walked past 2Euro Alhambra to save 10 bob. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErnestTurnip Posted December 16, 2023 Share Posted December 16, 2023 I bought one of them nitrosurge things today and have been using it on some normal draught Guinness cans and some Black Heart cans using the pin trick. Definitely seems to give a creamier pint and better head and the like but might not have been the night to do a scientific test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
