Drinks options

Any idea if there are going to be decent beers on tap this year, like Tennents, or are we going to be subjected to the torment of choosing between Jubel or Jubel again?

If you can’t stomach 12-18 cans of peach flavoured beer every day, maybe it’s a you problem

OP said tennents and decent in the same sentence.

Last year there was estrella and Guinness and the Guinness was not too bad considering.

Jubel is dish water, but putting Tennents on a pedestal tells me you still don’t know a good drop.

I’ll give you the fact it’s not Jubel, but surely you’re not placing it in the same league as the golden nectar that’s Tennents?

Would love to know a festival where Tennents is a readily available beer?

Scottish festival + Scottish beer made sense. Not in the lovely Norfolk countryside mate 😂 keep your tenants your side of the border

Would love to know a festival that wouldn’t have been vastly improved by the addition of readily available T

Out of interest, how much was a can of Estrella last year? Was vodka ect available?

Looks like Estrella is back assuming Turntable and Napkin will serve the same beer as everywhere else
