Choice of beer (16 replies)

Been working in Corby , little Scotland, and in the pub they had Tennant's on draught.

Now Tennant's extra in draft was a drink from the gods served in all m&b pubs ( and Tennant's super was a breakfast drink of superior quality ). It got me thinking about choice of lager's in pubs back in the eighties.

We came up with this choice in the pubs round our way and was wandering if it was generic.

M&B - Carling and Tennant's.

Ansell - Skol! Castlemain 4x, lowenbrau.

Banks's - harp, mcewans? Later on grolsh or kronenburg.

Any one remember anything else in these pubs? I remember labatts being on draught somewhere but that could have been a free house.

Also when did Stella and fosters come into the pubs??

I had a pint of Tennant's pilsner in Corby and it tasted of hos piss!!
