I suspect they may still have a few barrels (slightly out of date) of the stuff behind the bar at the Theatre of Tents? Had a couple cans of Tartan in Castle Park before going to see my first match at Ashton Gate, foul stuff (the beer), but the big black Tartan ashtrays in the pubs were a thing of beauty!

I also remembered the Spotted Horse... Not at all spotted and a 1960's architectural gem with symmetry at front to die for and casually torn down for a row of neo shit boxes. 21 hours ago, Red-Robbo said: I think that would've been an advert for Worthington E. "Smooth and easy" went the tagline. The E stood for "Extra" as it was a bit stronger than the 2.2 OG (I kid ye not) normal Worthington Bitter. It was sold from pumps with a big plastic E attached, which were a frequently swiped by teenaged 'erberts like me. I wish I'd kept one. This bloke is selling one on eBay for £84! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/124588262077?hash=item1d020a02bd:g:Hk4AAOSwPDVgFIR9 Arhhhhhh marvellous. Much appreciated not least for the correction. I suspect Double Diamond and Worthington E were competing head on. Dad was definitely more a DD man. But he often had a shot of whiskey to finish which might explain the wimpish weakness of which you speak. I put in a cheeky bid for a tenner.

Beers such as Watney's Starlight were sold in rugby clubs and near steel works etc as the drinkers would be thirsty and could drink a lot without getting drunk. I was told that if Starlight was just slightly weaker, you would not need a licence to sell it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
