Youri McAnespie Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) @Rudy It sounded like a good place for an al fresco sup until embankment pointed out there's spikes and anti-intruder crap on it now... I'd have definitely bought a fivers worth (of speccy), but I'm being a good lad until next month. If it wasn't for Brexit and Corona could've filled a van up and drove it to Italy - tripled one's money. Take a load of them shite Walsh trainers too, they love 'em there...

Youri McAnespie Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Strangely enough the next cheapest place for speccy is Sainsbury's - £7.50 for 4x440ml... They describe it as: '...A full-bodied strong lager, with a rich malty flavour and a subtle hint of cognac...' They suggest drinking it to accompany a half-eaten donner kebab retrieved from a dustbin, a handful of diazepam and a joint of black mamba.

Youri McAnespie Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 No wonder Moor Lane stank of piss. Even tramps would choose to piss or defecate anywhere but the bogs... Used to be mindboggling it could support not one but two cafes... Me and my mates would stare in like we were looking at a zoo exhibit.

Aka Carlsberg Elephant Beer strength. Hawthorns goto beverage. No wonder I ended up mysteriously and unceremoniously ejected onto Spa Road so many times. I think they reduced it for tax reasons but it must've been nice for them to remove the laughable 'Sharing Can' (a can being way above Gov. daily guidelines) from the livery. It was 9.2% in its heyday iirc. As was Tennents Super. Kestrel Super 9.6% Bavaria 8.6% But the daddy was Skol Super at 10%. Then it was onto your Barley Wines - Gold Label was about 13% I think.

Youri McAnespie Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) My sister (aspirins/ironing board) is eleven and a bit years older than me... Sometimes I half expect her to go on about being evacuated during the blitz... She says she used to go to 'Scamps' on a Tuesday and Gold Label was 12.5p a bottle. The first time I got served in a shop (around 13-ish) I bought two four packs of Gold Label as it was the most 'old-mannish' drink I could think of, this unlikely to be bought by an under-ager... My drinking buddy, some eighteen months older, had to go to another shop for a couple of cans of fizzy ribena to wash it down with, the fanny. I did consider going home to fetch a tin opener and teaspoon to eat it with. It was a memorable evening. Probably a pissy 8% or sommat these days.

They were supped on the train whilst going to an awayday so I felt like a hard midget. I expect the 10% version is only available in Denmark. 🙁 Speaking of Denmark - 24 cans for a hundred and forty quid, and they pick the cunts... Bargain. 'Free' delivery though. At least buying these magic bean brews locally theoretically keeps money here. Although in actuality it probably ends up in the tills of Milanese fashion houses, French Estate Agents, German Supercar Dealerships, Swedish Yachtyards and the pockets of Peruvian 'exporters'...
