Is there a decent UK-brewed lager

[red_harrington]

As a general rule I warm up in winter by drinking ale and cool down in summer with lager.

I know it's not 'cool' but I usually drink Heineken - anything but the ubiquitous UK one-vat-many-taps same old same old ubiquitous pish water that comes en masse from Northampton.

I fancy a change, surely there is a decent UK lager you can get in the supermarket but I am too lazy to look at and try each and every one.

Ace Lager

Why not look for a Kölsch style ale? Not too strong, light and with flavour.

The brewdog lager (Lost) is fine, if you like lager.

I think they're discontinuing lost lager, there's an offer on at the moment for the last of the lost, less than a quid a can

I like Sam Smith's Pure Brewed Organic Lager Red Harrington . It's available online

Tennants is UK brewed lager....... so that's a no.

Nothing wrong or un-cool with drinking Heineken btw. When it's right it's a lovely summer pint. Bloody expensive but lovely.

We need Indeedido on this thread, seems to be the oracle on the UK brewing industry...

If you like the taste of it then it's a good lager.

Cheers Nobby but I'd rather try a single bottle first before buying a shedload of the stuff online, hence the need to find something in the shops

Same with music - if you like it then it's good music, simple as that

I read that they were re designing the can and the current stock are being sold off before the re branded cans are launched. It’s a nice lager, so I hope that’s the case.

My mate runs a craft brewery in London and makes a fantastic lager (It is the only lager I drink)
Brockley Brewery - they deliver too

Loads of great lagers brewed independently. My mate works for Steam Machine in Newton Ayecliffe. I’m nipping down to Redcar today to grab few beers from pub there
