Tuborg

Recommended Posts

Tuborg may have finally got Fosters and Carling on the run in the weak tasteless pint of lout competition. Really was an awful pint.

If you have had enough Brothers at Glastonbury you can switch to Burrow Hill or enough Pilton Pop, switch to St Austell, but if you just fancied something else from your lager than 4% dishwater you really had nowhere else to go this weekend.

We have choice on cider, choice on ale, we only want a bit of choice with our lout.

Not a lot to ask is it.

Hence why I don't go near the shite pisses water...especially when there was Tribute available in the Cornish Arms!

I had plenty of lovely San Miguel as above poster suggested....

I dont understand, how Tuborg/Carlsberg are seriously the official beer....

Why not get Heineken, or Bud, or Stella, Even Better Harp....Something That I would be happy to give over 3.70 for.

on another note, when will they realise the deposit system works for f**ks sake.

I am positive Heineken or Bud would offer alot more money, only issue is pricing 7 bucks for a cup*(about a pint and a half at Coachella), but Cali is super expensive regardless.

Yep. Tuborg == awful piss. I usually drink bitter, of which there was plenty of decent stuff about. But occasionally fancied something cold and refreshing. So I'd go for Bothers (if there wasn't a queue). Then realised it was 7%, and it got a bit messy after 3! :rolleyes:

I'm a Stella drinker & didn't think it was that bad but I was also just happy for a cold refreshing pint ... what I did do though was to buy 3 or 4 pints then slowly tip my warm Stella into the cups to make my Stella not taste as bad ... after that I was back on the warm cans without a care in the world.

I do think there should be more of a choice in largers though .. a little competition wouldn't go a miss.

a beer amnesty would be great. you know like at reading where you swap your crate for cold carling. any beer tastes better than warm beer.

Suprised that nobody has kicked off about gaymers at £4 a pint. I'm sure it was only £3.20 last year. I know there are better alternatives but if your by the pyramid the brothers bar is a fair treck.

Also this year we took an inflatable treasure chest and then filled it with water and tipped our cans into it. Kept them nice and cool

we drank it when out and about for the first day or so when our cold cans from the cooler were finished (although we kept topping the cooler up every day and grabbed some every time we went back to the tent, the igloo max 70 kept them pretty cold up until the sunday afternoon!) but after that we decided to boycott it as tuborg is the most tasteless piss i've ever had the misfortune to drink, goes flat in seconds and i doubt if there's any alcohol in it! needless to say we all moved onto cider or ale which was much better and far more refreshing. now that i know its going to be there for few years we'll just make sure we bring enough tins and spirits to last B)

I don't think it would matter what beer it was. Unless you drink it within 10 minutes it was warm and flat. I only had the one when normally I spend most of my time on the lager but drank which ever cider was available this year, its still drinkable when it gets warm

    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better. 
    • You'd think that something like bad weather was in the basics of festival planning. After the shitshow of Madrid, you'd think they'd learnt their lesson, apparently not...
    • Same. Shower and back out in a taxi!
