San Miguel - still available?
Used to get through a "reasonable" amount of the stuff in 1 litre bottles and have been known to clear the stock of a supermarket out a couple of times when there's been an offer on
Is it being discontinued in this large size? All we seem to see now is either ikkle bottles or cans and then it's the "premium" version only which I'm not keen on - tastes a bit perfume-y / flowery

Local Tesco and Sainsbury's haven't had any for ages...
Haven't tried the smaller places yet - too many memories of being charged extortionate amounts for one or two cans out of a fourpack as a "youngster"

Used to drink gallons of the stuff when I worked in Hong Kong a few years back - mind you, that was their own version and much better than the spanish crap you get here !!

As long as you steer clear from the draught stuff on sale in the UK - it's brewed in the UK and is nothing like San Mig, it's really not good
Even my Carlsberg rep (who tries to sell it to my pub!) admits it's not worth having on the bar!! Why do they bother with the brand name if what they are selling is not the same stuff???

lordharding - are you sure they were girls...?
at least san miguel has a bit of "bite / sharpness" to it unlike some of the standard slop lagers in this country - it tastes more european
I started supping it after a pint on draught near Glastonbury on hols last year - can't stand carlsberg / carling but am used to stellavision
