Nah. I'd stated it earlier in the thread - UK lagers are shite.

European beers, on the other hand, can be very palletable and should indeed be served chilled.

And what's up with the formatting of your post? Looks like you copied it from a website :)

I always do that, look it up.
I find it helps people actually read the entire post.
Then try Samuel Smith's Pure Brewed Lager - Thats British and very good indeed.

To be fair, the Sam Smith's did cross my mind, but if I'm not drinking their bitter or stout I'm drinking their wheat beer first...

Many are actually even higher than that I belive Toht up to 0.5%

If your persistent enough.....?

Heh yeah i meant that some shops have a strict anal rule about selling any alcohol content to minors.

The 0.00005 was an overexaggaration ofcourse ;)

I'm really anal about what goes into my body.

In other news I went back with ID and got my fucking becks blue, it was only 3 mins walk from my front door and ill be fucked if I am walking the extra 35 secs to the Tesco nearby :p

Edinburgh is amazing, there is one street where you can stand and see two Tescos within three mins walking distance from each other...like WHY tescos....are you REALLY getting that much more in sales by having a stores a few hundred feet from each other?

"what theyre getting" != "what they are denying other shops"

my uncle, who is a regional manager for co-op, claims that if you see any disowned large building or pub it'll be owned by tesco, who are just waiting for their moment.

he is quite paranoid about tesco though.

A quick Google shows that in some places you need a Licence to sell Reduced Alcohol Beer. Maybe the Co Op are just ultra cautious?
