Lager and cider.
What's happened to beer? :-(

[Percy McCarthy]

1664 is pretty good as a lager

I agree, nice stuff. Agree with others though, no matter what drunk is being served, it needs to be served better. Great that we are moving forward though.

How should the sober people be served?

*wink*

If Heck’s main plan is to sweat the existing assets then you’d think serving beer well and in big quantities would be an easy win.

Unless he’s keeping it shit so the GA+ deals look better value.

With a lot of suspicion.

Well, they are building new bars for all these suites they’re putting in, so I’m guessing they anticipate extra sales.

^^ Agreed. We can easily see the path to revenue of £300m for next season. Harder to see another £100m after that with TV revenues plateauing, unless we increase capacity, move, or there is a populous demographic willing to pay ridiculous ticket prices.

I mean, I’m always optimistic about the size of this club and I’m looking forward to seeing how far we can go, but it will take hard work, imaginative marketing.and, dare I say it, creative accounting.

A separate training kit sponsor, and a sponsor for Bodymoor Heath are two relatively large revenue generators yet to be tapped - hopefully we're looking into things like this.

Bet they don’t improve a thing in pleb class though

[Dogtanian]

I’m sure they will, eventually.

Isn't that Kronenberg?

Having said that Carlsberg 1883 is quite good but I think you can only get that other here.

Ah 1664 is a lovely, if were ever lucky enough to have any in the fridge - I ask my 8 year old to get me a "can of numbers" which always tickles me

1664 in the UK is Heineken. Elsewhere it's Carlsberg.

Good explanation here.

OK thanks for the info.
Never realised that the Kronenbourg brand was owned by Carlsberg.

Didn't know that either.
Are they similar tasting?

Kronenbourg Blanc is streets ahead of standard Carlsberg.

As said 1883 is OK as is Carls Special.
Carlsberg also brew some half decent beers under the Jacobsen label.
