JD Wetherspoon group is planning to replace Coors draught products with Carlsberg draught products within the next month.

Tuborg will replace Coors Light and Carlsberg will replace Carling which i think is a bad move but it's all to do with costs

Plans are Carlsberg will be sold at £1.99 a pint
 
Who cares?

Certainly not the owner of Wetherspoons/Lloyds as he's a Real Ale fan - as I am.

Try it - you might like it. It actually has flavour - in fact there are a wide variety of flavours with Real Ale.

Avoid anything with "smooth" in the name as these are pumped directly from the urinals.
 
That's ****!!

Looks like I'm not going to 'spoons anymore, not without Carling!! :mad:
 
Carling... wouldn't use it to wash the toilets.

Carlsberg Export at a minimum, Grolsh, Stella, Krony. Would take a real ale over any providing they have actually got a few on, and not just the mix of all the drip trays.

carling and carlsberg are both utter crap imo. too fizzy, dont taste of much and you fart something chronic after a couple. i will admit though that a really cold carlsberg can be nice in the summer.


id much rather drink a pint of Guinness, fullers, bass, greene king, sharps, st austell, davenports, wychwood etc or if thata a bit muh have a pint of cider, bottle of sol, corona or Budweiser.
 
Ah, I might be able to go in to a 'spoons and not have to drink spirits now. Great.
 
i usually stick to the becks-1.29 a bottle or the jagerbombs in spoons!
i go to the local if i want a nice refreshing pint!

(y) Wetherspoons/Lloyds always have a couple (usually more) hand-pumps on with a wide variety (often local) of real ales.

At least once (twice?) a year they have a "beer festival" where the range and number of ales available is considerably expanded.

i worked at a spoons for a good few years. theys always at least 2 local or local ish ales on the hand pumps, and when the beer festivals come around its at least 6. we had 8 pulls and 2 or 3 were reserved for regular things like abbot ale or IPA all the others were usually 'guest' beers. it was rare we had a dormant pump tbh
 
I cant stand Carlsberg but its in all the bars down here in Northampton as its where its brewed :yuck:

stupidly late reply but seeing as you're a fan of monster
im reliably informed monster has the jd wetherspoons contract and now serves monster/vodka rather than redbull/vokda

They do indeed sell monster in the smaller 250ml cans - same size as redbull. Cans are marked as Monster ( export) :D

Caroline - Real ale festival on again at end of October
