*SUPERMARKET SESSION LAGER!!!* - Damm - Rosa Blanca

[@Metempsychosis649]

It's absolutely beautiful on tap in Majorca and is 4.7/4.8 %.

Lidl are selling 6×330ml for £4.99 on October 3rd.

I'd rather have a cup of tea than a 3.4% lager.

lower abv lagers are taking off at the minute. for the brewers it's a massive tax dodge on lower abv products (see also 0% beer, which they make a mint off) but also the consumer base seems to be enjoying a lighter lager that doesn't blow one's nipples off. We sell this at my bar and its a firm favourite with men, but more women than men usually. We also stock the brewdog cold beer and that's flying out as well also which I like as its very neckable/very crisp when freezing cold. I like low abv for sessions when they rarely occur, but I prefer a stronger tasting and higher abv usually.

I love you and your reviews (not in the biblical sense of course), but as I started my drinking in the 70's, Lager was a ladies drink of choice (alongside Babycham and white wine). So I have never bothered with the stuff. Over the past few years this view has changed due to my growing global awareness of beer styles. I now love Oktoberfest and I am not constricted by late 20th century predudice. It doesnt bother me that this is 3.4%. If it hits the spot, rock on. So thanks to your review, some lucky retailer will get my coin. Cheers Ginge!

[@paulsbeerreviews]

Thank you buddy. It’s always good when people expand their drinking tastes. Life’s too short to drink one type of beer I think. Appreciate you watching mate 🍻

[@TrancetasticWilza]

Better than UK Carlsberg?

[@brettslater9330]

Yes

[@mistakay9019]

everything is better than carlsberg hahaha

[@jasonsmith7737]

Good review , like you wish we could try the stronger version

[@paulsbeerreviews]

Maybe one day!

[@pvfckev8348]

It's tax reasons but brought theses on the cheap £9 for 10 I'm impressed with it

[@RJTheQuizzer]

Can I make a request? Stella Unfiltered

[@paulsbeerreviews]

*NEW* Stella Artois Unfiltered 5% VS Stella Artois Imported 5% #beer #beerreview #stellaartois kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4PYgmmhadyXgq8

[@TrancetasticWilza]

The Stella unfiltered is certainly better than the standard stuff. I tried the Staropramen unfiltered at the weekend . Not too bad...

[@johnglynhughes4239]

Good review Paul. I will never buy it at 3.4%, ever.

[@billyboy9810]

Dumbing down of beer is a real problem in the UK. I would much rather have a minimum price point for alcohol which would discourage stuff like 'white lightening' cider than drink bad beer. I think offering tax breaks for low ABV misses the point. Quality over quantity is the way ahead, cheers Paul.

[@paulsbeerreviews]

Absolutely buddy. Quality should always be the way forward. Unfortunately though in reality, Profit is the way forward and these companies / Brewers aren’t interested in creativity or brewing excellent beer. It’s about brewing cheap beer that they can brand and market well and make massive profit. Very frustrating

[@peterm7548]

I wonder how long it will be before Estrella Damm is brewed only in Bedford and becomes the latest UK brewed "fake foreign lager". I deeply dislike these pretend foreign lagers. I'd rather drink Tennents Light for a 3.4% lager as its a genuine British lager and a lot better then most lagers of that strength. But given this review I might try this one as I like drinking lower abv lagers in summer. By the way COYS for the new season!! About to watch the Leicester game on TV.

[@paulsbeerreviews]

Yeah I think it’s inevitably going to be contract brewed at the Bedford site at the lesser abv. Just a bit depressing really. Not the result we wanted tonight but some good moments particularly in that first half. On to the next one. COYS!

[@peterm7548]

@@paulsbeerreviews Yes it was a disappointing game which we should have won. Let's hope we win against Everton on Saturday. Look forward to the next beer review!
