Title: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Spencer_White on Tuesday, December 29, 2009, 19:21:29 Just to say this is on sale at the CGH, its cheaper than Carling and it tastes a better (to me anyway).
Its great news for lager louts like me to be able to get behind a local brew. If you're a lager drinker give it a go, because Im sure it must be tough for Arkells to compete these days and its good to support a Swindon company? Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: STFC_Gazza on Tuesday, December 29, 2009, 19:23:56 Arkells Czech Style Pilsner is my favourite lager but I am a fan of Budvar, Pilsner Urquell etc. Lovely stuff. I only drink this if it is available! LUSH!

Bloody lovely stuff. Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: DMR on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 00:48:43 Will certainly give it a whirl next week, although to say it's better than Carling is hardly a compliment!
Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: strooood on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 13:13:48 only 3.5% though i believe.
Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 18:24:04 3.8, same as Carlsberg.
Thats OK for all day drinking, not good enough for a proper binge though. Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 18:29:21 Fucking hell Spence !
If you dont class all day drinking as a proper binge then I must be a right lightweight Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 18:46:44 When I go all day drinking with the football I take it steady, pint about every 45 minutes.
A proper binge to me is when you go out in the evening and sink 4 pints in the first hour and then go on from there. Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 18:51:41 I am too old for that now
:D Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: adje on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 18:59:08 Czech Pilsner is usually 5% by definition is it not?
Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Spencer_White on Wednesday, December 30, 2009, 19:26:47 Its a lager brewed in Swindon, and it tastes fine.
Thats all you need to know. Title: Re: Arkells Pilsner. Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, January 8, 2010, 20:59:41 I had a pint at lunch time. I have to say, it surpassed my expectations. A very good local lager and it may tempt me into the County on match days to sample it once more.
