I was drinking it before the bandwagon hit mate. By far and away my favourite drink and worth every penny imo

I can’t say I’d seen any marketing for it before I had a pint of draught for the first time either. Lovely pint.

Mate, try and keep up. This ****'s been going on since bathtub gin manufacturers put a Beefeater on the bottle and doubled sales to America overnight.

A bar owner told me in the 80's that he could charge twice as much for Grolsch as any other bottled beer because youngsters liked playing with the cool looking detachable bottle tops.

I'm guessing you still drink Double Diamond down the British Legion?

Would be interesting to pour all the draughts in to plain separate glasses and see what is the most favoured then. Everything is marketed in one way or another to attract your attention.

Friday only means one thing...pub lunch! Probably going to opt for a mixed grill today with a pint of Peroni and a hot chocolate fudge cake pudding :)

Had the large mixed grill but no Peroni so went for a Bud Light [HASHTAG]#watchthecalories[/HASHTAG]

I’d fancy myself to be able to pick out Peroni from the likes of beater or piss like Carling or Fosters.

Never watch adverts, never influenced by posters etc either. I was in Pizza Express about eight-ten years ago and there wasn't much choice so I tried Peroni.

I don't dislike it, how much is a pint of the stuff?
 
I like a nice Peroni but it's hit and miss on tap down here, I usually ask to try a bit first. Paid nearly £8 for one in London. Cheapest probably about £4.20.

Like Tobes says though, I'd definitely fancy myself to pick it out compared to your ****ty standard lagers.
