    My parents used to have a off licence/grocers when I was a youngster. We had "regulars" coming in buying Tennents Super or Carlsberg Special Brew both @ 9% :)

    Ive drank it but I wouldn't say the taste was a pleasurable one. The getting off your rocker in 4 cans was a plus point I suppose.

    Adastra Pacific ( stockport ) sometimes has Red Horse in but can order it for you as well. It was painful to pay £6 for a bottle and see the 75 peso price printed on the lid.
