Special brew was pricey.
Couple cans of Kestral Super strength was the thing. Tasted like licking the road..............................ironically.

Kestrel and Tennent's and white ciders are gateway drinks to crack.

Had you been living under a rock back then?!
No. I'm just saying there were plenty of beers around at 5%.
I am also aware of stronger ones as well.
Tennents Super, Carlsberg Spesh at 9% and the cheap option at 8.5% was 'HSL'
Which we always said was backwards initials for 'Last Swig Heaven' -
Cus it really was bad at the bottom. -

When it first arrived the other UK beers were pretty weak. The common 5% lager wasn't around 15 years ago.
So it is a bit old now.
Still shit beer mind you...
It does turn a few people loopy, I know a number of people who wont touch the stuff as they know they get their raging arsehole on.
The Belgians have it right calling it a kids beer

Tyskie tastes better but yeah, I think it's where the belgians store their anger for export.

I can't get through more than two tins of Tyskie. When warm it tastes more and more like Skol with every sip, just more pissy.
Żywiec is good, but from the tap. -

no 5% lager in UK,15 yrs ago?
how on earth would we have partied like it was 1999?
#plenty of 5% lagers common even back in the 1980s
Talking about what was on tap in pubs not the parklife tins of death lager.
Although my schoolday specials were MD 20/20 and those little cans of 'barley wine' you could get.
And Thunderbird, so many drunken afternoons on those bottles of alcoholic industrial effluent.
