Best refreshing bottled lager for the summer days

Lol hooch. Is that still going?

I wouldn't because I dont have the brass neck for it. Nor do I frequent clubs where men like other men, etc.

You know the stereotype of drinking such drinks.

Have you not heard of turbo shandy ? 1/2 pint beer in pint glass , bottle of Smirnoff ice emptied into it and shot of vodka in it as well. Man I used to blackout a lot. Great last orders drink if you are a raging alcoholic. Like I used to be.

Refreshing on a summer day, although tbh Cider or Pimm's would be my preferred choice

A strong cider mixed with orange juice and soda is a really good summer drink.

Jupiler from Belgium is my go to when i can get it. Otherwise San Miguel/Grolsch/Peroni

 

[Apone70]

4 big bottles of Tyskie for £6 from Asda

 

[Siliconslave]

i still really like it.
I had a message off the wife saying she had got me 4 cans of Carlsberg from work for free as it had just gone out of date. Got home and it was Special Brew.. haha i drank it and it wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. It was ice cold though

Kroenenburg 1664 (gets me smashed quick) or something a bit lighter like Becks.

Corona is a bit sweet and Peroni makes me feel awful next day even if I only have 1.

 

[R.O.S.S.I]

Coors Light is my go to. Delicious stuff.

Holy thread necro, Batman!

Anyone got any new ideas? I usually drink Peroni but it's slightly heavy for the summer and I can only drink about 6 before I go off the taste. I do like Heineken but open to other ideas.

I've drank craft beers in the past but my body (well digestive system!) doesn't react well to them, don't know if it's the hops or what.

 

[Bug One]

I'm going to suggest a couple of local craft houses to me. Both lovely drinks.

Whitstable Bay Blonde

Time and Tide Lighthouse

This is probably the best lager I've ever tasted, crisp and refreshing.

Pure Brewed Organic Lager | Samuel Smith's Brewery Samuel Smith's Pure Brewed Organic Lager is brewed in Yorkshire & matured at low temperatures to bring out its delicate flavour and soft hop-character finish samuelsmithsbrewery.co.uk

Pilsners are a good option, like Krombacher or Warstiener. Also Asahi if you haven't tried it.

I used to drink Peroni but find it a bit heavy going these days. Its the same with craft IPA's, they are too rich for a session.

Asahi (which is brewed by Peroni)
special brew lemonade shandy is surprisingly tasty! Choose a simple lemonade.

Clarkson’s Hawkstone lager is pretty damn good. I don’t like lager but bought some to try. It was so nice I bought some more!

At the other end of the scale, if you’re in Glasgow then visit the Drygate brewery where you can get unpasteurised Tennents. Beautiful stuff

 

[MrRockliffe]

Cruzcampo, which I don’t think you can get in the UK

Try any lager from a Mediterranean country

 

[Shadowness]

Pilsner Urquell

Budvar

Both probably the best readily available bottles.

Most Bavarian Helles: especially Schneider's , Paulaner, Augustiner
Some uk craft brewers doing decent helles now, like Utopian
A german wheat beer if I'm in the mood, especially schneider's
A good pale ale , chilled (not IPA hop-overload)
A berlinerweisser kindl with a dash of elderflower syrup and grapefruit (trust me!), for the low alcohol option
Some czech lagers already mentioned are ok
And it's a bit odd for summer because it's dark but a good German Dunkel is just heaven anytime of the year!

Stone & Wood Pacific 6x330ml Bottles

This is hand-crafted beer from the dazzling Byron Bay. Pacific Ale gets its name from Stone & Wood's home, right by the Pacific Ocean. It's certainly the thing to drink in the sizzling Australian heat. Australian barley and wheat make up the base of the brew and the Galaxy hops bring fruity...

My go to, loved on holiday in Australia a few years ago and finally found it for sale in the UK

I do like a Paulaner, had that before.

Stiegl Pils is a nice summer beer:

Produkt - Goldrichtiger Geschmack! - Stiegl

Goldrichtiger Geschmack! - Stiegl | Stiegl-Pils - Der elegante Biergenuss

Pretty sure it won't be readily available in the UK though.
