Never mind the price (£7.50 for a pint of Tennents!) A friend just sent me this from the farmers bash. Is this really the best we can do for a drinks list at a live event?

  2. Serves them right for going to the fuckin farmers bash

  3. I’ve said this many, many times; it’ll get to the stage where they just charge a tenner flat and we will accept it. Utter madness.

  4. Love when prices increase all round the board and everyone in Ireland gets heated about the price of pints and not the increase on foods etc ahahaha love this island 😂

  5. As I’ve said before, I’ve seen better drink menus in dry countries.

  6. Anything to discourage drunkenness amongst farmers can only be a good thing

  8. Tennents is the cheapest muck to buy so they make bigger profits also.

  9. Not uncommon at all to see one of each option at a festival. Whoever wins the tender isn’t going to want to share

  10. Used to pay £1 a pint of Tennant’s in the Limelight many moons ago, and it was too expensive then

  11. really awful, choice between dining your own piss, bud light or someone else’s, tennents

  12. As someone who pishes 99% tennents and 1% Bucky I’d be taking these prices as an act of war. l shall go get 4 cases from the shop sit in the beer garden and for 2 quid a tin of Scottish bath water profit I shall make.

  13. Back in 2014 when Fat Boy Slim played the Beach Party in Portrush I was doing the bar, we emptied the till trays into black bags, all notes, they went to a Securicor counting van onsite. £500,000 at the end of the night.

  14. just dont go to these events or spend your money at them, they will soon realise the prices are ridiculous

  16. 12.80 for a pint of cider and a small coke in a pub in Dublin…they can keep it!

  17. Prices were the same at The Darkness at CHSQ last night as well 😬 daylight robbery if I ever saw it

  18. £7.50 a pint in the hotel at Stamford Bridge (Chelsea)

  19. It’ll be luke warm in a plastic glass.

    I’m heading to Sam Fender at the end of the month and I’m going to make it my last concert.

  20. I don’t drink at festivals. The prices are ridiculous, but I’d pay if there was anything I would like to drink. I’m not paying them prices if I won’t enjoy the drink. No Guinness, no ale or gin. I did once make the mistake of getting the red wine, but only the once.

  21. To be fair, this is nothing new at festivals. I was paying £7 a pint at Leeds Festival a decade ago.

  22. I’m going half-bottle of red. Bottle of Coke. A couple of pint glasses filled with ice. 2 pints of Kalimotxo.

  23. That’s shocking! Was just in Germany at a massive beer garden and a 1 litre stein was €8.50 which is literally the same price as a pint of Tennants! 🤮🤮🤮🤮

  24. I remember when people talked about how a pint in Dublin was a fiver, and how ridiculous that was. That only a few years ago! They’re taking the proverbial. Prices keep rising, wages stay the same by and large.

  26. I was paying £7 for a pint in Wembley at a gig couple of years ago which I have to say is quite reasonable considering

  27. If you’re attending that shite you deserve all you get… fucking Hugo Duncan

  28. Someone mentioned before Tennents is one of the cheapest kegs to buy, hence why you see that shite. I’ve stopped drinking it now at the outdoor gigs.

  29. The drinks selection is wild here. To be fair, All Together Now want much better – Rockshore, Rockshore cider, Guinness on tap. One bar in the whole event sold Smithwicks. There was cocktails too which broke up the monotony, but thankfully you could also bring in any can or plastic bottle that you wanted and drink your own stash.

  30. The Tennents is how much they’ll pay you to drink it. Still not worth it

  31. Kellys used to do £1 cans of tennents. They were always ice cold too. Had to be quick though – no chance of finishing a can of tennents once the bakes kicked in!
