SteveD Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 right then as you know i like a slurp ,i usually drink carling when im at home but have been known to slurp anything from whiskey to champaign ,anything really but carling has been my drink for years , BUT these new cans with the taste lock b*****ks on them are crap ,the beer tastes totally different has anyone else noticed this ,i used to get through upto 15 tins on a saturday afternoon no problem and wake up fine ,now i can only drink 3-4 tins before i cant take nay more ,and then i wake up with a banging head Quote
Rob Navin Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Not noticed it. Is it because your getting too old to hold your beer ? Quote
Captain Colonial Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I used to get through upto 15 tins on a saturday afternoon no problem and wake up fine This explains quite a lot, wuv... But yeah, switched from Carling a while back, same issue with three or four followed by a bad head. Something chemical I'm sure. Pity, as my step daughter has a cat that looks just like the tin that I named Carling. He's pretty loopy, so the name fits. Quote
SteveD Posted August 21, 2011 Author Posted August 21, 2011 no wuv it genuinely tastes like s**t now ,even my neighbour said today when i gave him a tinny it tasted different,well like s**t basically Quote
Captain Colonial Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Guess I just go for quantity at the pub and quality at home, never drink any tinned beer unless it's free at someone else's place Quote

Captain Colonial Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Stella is OK, but to drink it I'm told you have to wear a string vest and smack your missus about, don't you? Quote

John Loudon - Sponsorship Liaison Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I think you have finally damaged your taste buds wuv Quote
carpetstu Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 I nave stayed away from canned beers for a few years now, as I can taste the tin in the beer. Bottled or draught only Quote
Mark Stanton Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Always thought Carling tasted crap myself ... bleeeeuurrgghhh don't like stella ........... change yer brew try some 1664 bottles are better and cans are fine or could be you just can't handle it anymore Quote
V8grunt Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 try some 1664 bottles are better and cans are fine or could be you just can't handle it anymore Mmmmmmmmmm! 1664 on draught... About 8% on "Press" in the local French bars! You know when you've had a pint of it! Quote
Nic Ayre Posted August 21, 2011 Posted August 21, 2011 Exmoor Beast is what you want. Real Ale But thanks for reminding me I'm not allowed any alcohol for at least another 7 days, especially as it was the local Beer Fest this weekend as well Quote
