Madri

[batton carrier]

Not a bad pint as that type of drink goes.

But why is it so fucking expensive they have just started selling it  in my local and it is £5.50 a fucking pint.

Worlds gone mad

“Premium” init

I don’t mind it at all and find the seethe quite entertaining, but it’s certainly not worth paying over the odds for. Cruzcampo heading that way too. Although I find the price of both varies WILDLY between pubs. 

[tomski]

I don’t mind it but it’s not a top 5 job

[gonzo]

Gives me a headache the day after.

[Spider]

It's no good at all

Carling is way better. 

But adding a Spanish name seems to appeal to folk. Weird.

[mickbrown]

Masterful bit of marketing.

Brewed in Tadcaster by Coors. Fuck all Spanish about it.

Used to play Football at a school opposite the brewery ... Fucking stank

[DazBob]

I don't mind it, but I'd certainly not class it as a premium lager.

i thought madri was burton?

anyway, see my post above

Czech lager still stands top of the pile for me.

I'll go Urquell as it's imported. Anything brewed in the UK isn't half as good.

For ale/IPA type stuff, I've got to say Black Edge make some stunners. I think fresh is best when it comes to ale though.

It's fucking shite and drunk entirely by city fans who make it think it makes them look all continental and that 

[DazBob]

Kronbacher is delightful.

Touching nearly £6 in the ground isn’t it?

Actually

Black Edge do a Helles lager that is delicious 

[Traf]

I think you're all trying too hard.

Lager snobbery surely isn't a thing, is it? Doesn't a bog standard German beer just piss all over these brands?

I wouldn't know, I mainly drink Guinness.
