I don't understand the hype around Carlsberg supposedly being the best lager in the world. I found half a can on the wall outside the house this morning and it tasted like piss

My mates shared their bumper can with me when I was a lad. That was all warm and tasted like piss. I did drink it all though

"Carlberg and Carling are both awful. Get me a moretti please! "

Carling is disgusting, I used to puke if I ever had to drink more than 4 pints somewhere with no other option.

Can’t say I ever drink Carlsberg.

Carlsberg on offer at my corner shop atm - 4 pints usually £6.75 but £4 atm.

Depends on what's there. I do like the 2x 675ml bottles for £5.50. Bierra Moretti, Cobra, Tsing Tao, staropramen. 🍻

I'm not a drinker myself but isn't the trendy Madri lager just Carling in a different, more expensive tin?

As someone who lives in the town where Carlsberg is brewed in the UK I can state categorically that it also smells like piss in the wrong wind direction.

Probably the best Lager in the world.

As an ex publican I always laugh at the claim to be the best lager in the world. One of the worse from my experience. Had in taken out of two pubs because it was a non-seller. Even when I did drink small amounts of alcohol [3 pints and I felt bloated and sleepy] I never took to lagers. Carling was always a good run-of-the-mill selling lager, but a lot of punters preferred Stella, Grolsch, Sn Miguel and other better quality ones.

Most lagers are brewed under licence in the UK and aren't a patch on imported ones like Warsteiner or Pilsner Arquell.

In the shops most of the beers are uk brewed syrup shite nowadays.

Its worth reading the labels and ingredients list to establish if its actually imported nowadays.

"Lager is a girls drink"

In what respect? I don't consume alcohol but do enjoy alcohol-free beers including lager.

I find it odd how some people still equate certain drinks, and heavy alcohol consumption, with manliness Maybe that's due to peer pressure or silly pub talk.

What a strange question, why do I need to justify my consumption of alcohol-free beer?

It's a liquid, we need to consume liquid in order to survive. I also enjoy the taste but don't wish to consume alcohol.

A lot of lager snobs on here and around in general, at the hotel here carlsberg is less than £2 a pint, while out and about had yesterday had a Madri that was £6.50 for a pint, and there wasn't a difference worth over £4, it's just what people perceive to be better

Rumour has it that the reason why Wetherspoons toilets are upstairs is so that the urinals can drain directly into the Carlberg barrels

The really good lagers are found in Aldi and Lidl...Perlenbacher is £4.99 for 6 bottles and is really good. Most lagers are brewed in the UK (Stella, Heineken, mardri, Cruzcampo etc) and are shit

there's also rumours going around about a ex pub landlord from Wales who use to water down alcoholic drinks especially the spirits.

Wouldn't surprise me. Most of the pubs I ran were in England especially the two where I briefly sold Carlsberg. Had I watered that down it would probably have made it stronger

Where is Carlsberg brewed nowadays, as a town near me, used to import ship loads of the stuff, way back in the 1970s?

Madrí is not a genuine Spanish beer that was brought over to the UK. It was created specifically for the British market by the brewing giant Molson Coors in 2020.

I find that the likes of Estrella, San Miguel, Corona, Moretti, Madrí, Peroni, Cruzcampo, Carlsberg etc. are indistinguishable. Especially if bought in the UK.

They generally taste better when bought in their countries of origin - and you get served at your table in the more civilised European manner.

I think it used to be produced in Northampton town

Not been there for many years so couldn’t comment on now

The sneaky suspicion is they used to get their water from the canal that the brewery factory used to sit beside

San Miguel is from The Philippines, have you been over there to try it?
