Not a giant Carona fan but a good Mexican beer (Craft breweries here now have their own versions) hits the spot when it's 100 degrees (38 degrees) outside in the summertime. Not sure how much I would drink if I lived in the UK, but in the southwest US, it really hits the spot from time to time.
@jonparry64624 жыл бұрын
It would be interesting to compare a beer on the perfect draft vs the same beer in a bottle but served on the fizzics. Then you could see if the beer really is better quality in the keg as you keep saying, or if it’s just about the fact that it’s poured from a tap.

love the honest review, have had the Phillips beer hawk for a year now... buds and stella have been great but I saw bad reviews about the corona tasting quite poorly, watched your videos and can honestly say I have just got myself another 2 stella and 1 corona keg. so if this corona tastes bad this is on you buddy lol anyhoo to change subject onto the topic of £3.50 a pint for corona? you are talking atleast £6.50 a pint of corona here in Glasgow, I can only imagine that is more expensive down south...but now a days £3quid to £4 a pint of lager is kind of the market price now. currently chilling this corona give it a few more hours and if its rubbish EXPECT another comment lol I am joking and thank you for the reviews best of luck.

Simon you have a large foamy head as you should always run the rubber tube and tap under the water tap to wet the line to stop it reacting when first poured and go foamy, also you should let the keg go down to at least 4C before pouring as higher temp gives a foamy pint. Also do a quick 2 second pour into a separate glass, then from a new glass do a full pour. Try those 3 tips on your next PD keg and you’ll see the difference on your first pint. Good luck mate, keep the reviews coming as I love the channel

As much as I love my craft beers there's always a time and a place every week for a lager, but I do think £3.50 is far too much for a home pint of what me and my mates refer to as 'fizzy piss'. When you factor in the cost of the machine as well the cost per pint works out considerably more than £3.50 I like the idea of having a keg of Marzen or Paulaner on the go at home though 👍

You have to have a lime in a Corona, it seems to set the beer off...I suppose you can put a lime in a pint glass, but it's probably the only beer I prefer from the bottle!
@datstankadank3 жыл бұрын
the difference is simple. in the bottle, the beer passes by and through the lime, effectively blending the two in a subtle, nontraditional way. and well, on a pint glass.. you have to keep the lime from sliding off onto the floor. more of a garnish.
