    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.

    Draft is nice I must say but if it’s wet and has all the required ingredients I feel duty bound to drink it.

    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.

    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.

    It certainly was, My old boy drank that and had seven kids but stopped drinking and bought a TV.

    It’s about a fiver a pint in most places. There’s some margin in that like.

    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.

    Yeah wasn't far from Stamford Bridge when I went there last year. Robbing bastards. Safe to say I only had one drink in that pub.

    Wouldn't pay it, I tell them to keep it and walk to a Wetherspoons.
