TomTom92 Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Hope they're served at room temperature with 1/5 of the pint missing. Got to keep up tradition. Day, RadioactiveWaste, Taribo and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaltRam Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Gutted. Absolutely the worst brewery in the UK. Doombar is awful, Atlantic is vile. Quaffing icy lager from a plastic glass not practical. Looks like I'll be cutting it fine with an extra pint on the way then.

Boycie Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Oh not Madri, it’s plastic lager aimed at failed Hipsters. Derby4Me, EranioIsGod, oodledoodle and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanzoTheRamzo Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Madri is one of those great PR experiments. Absolutely no connection to Madrid at all and made for mass consumption by English crowds, yet people have been absolutely lapping it up.

Day Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 As a Madri drinker with zero shame, I can honestly say I would drink it even if it was called Burto from Burton. I was given an early tip off by @Srg to give it a go once it's out there, first place I found it was in Hull. 12 months later it's exploded everywhere. I'm under no illusion it's basically a stronger Coors, as an ex Coors drinker it's perfect. I get that drinking something mainstream that's available in most pubs and supermarkets isn't a cool thing to admit publicly these days but there you go. Signing of the summer this is.

Eddie Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Pilsner Urquell and Staropramen are decent beers their ownership hasn't destroyed yet, so there's that. SKRam, oodledoodle, Ramarena and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott129 Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 I, for one, love a Madri. A clear improvement on Carling and Pedigree. oodledoodle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share Posted August 4, 2023 Oh, whilst I'm here, the Madri I had at the Forsyth testimonial was pretty chilled compared to the luke warm offerings previously. Not sure if you would put that down to the smaller queues and less pints sat there tee'd up ready to go or not. oodledoodle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like Madri fresh from the pump can I suggest you try drinking it again after it has passed through your body. I think you will find it will taste at least twice as nice. oodledoodle, SKRam, Ramarena and 6 others 1 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if you would put that down to the smaller queues and less pints sat there tee'd up ready to go or not. I'd suggest some of the new equipment and lines that have been put in would make a large difference. I remember when we went in at the City Ground, had no end of issues with froth and taste complaints - turned out the lines were 30 years old and they didn't clean them. Should've guessed really.

EranioIsGod Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 As pointed out, Madri is the biggest gimmick ever. The soul of Madrid, that nobody in Spain has never heard of.... Derby4Me, SKRam and oodledoodle 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angieram Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Well, I like Atlantic so I'm happy! Although based on tomorrow's weather forecast it will probably be a strong cuppa tea. Edited August 4, 2023 by angieram oodledoodle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note for all Forum readers: My preference of girls is strictly limited to those over the age of 18. I like old girls most. I am not a paedophile. The reply should be considered a joke. One of those things you should laugh at. Ok. Day, oodledoodle, Smyth_18 and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
