Tennent’s is more than just a great lager– it is a national treasure. As a product, it has always been known for being a great pint - dating back to its long history from 135 years ago when Hugh Tennent brought the recipe back from Bavaria.

Plain average lager.
Golden color with an ok white head. Moderate intensity in the aroma. Medium body and an ok carbonation. Decent balance between sweetness and bitterness. Malty and mild herbal flavor.

Can sample at a tasting at Max’s place. Thanks Tom L. Golden with a white head. Aroma of graininess, cardboard, a bit of acetaldehyde. Sweetish flavor, papery, acetaldhyde. Light-bodied. Bleh.

Rated from old notes. Harshly flat at the beginning. Somewhat bitter. No aroma that is good. Oh, where do we go from here? Faint hint of malts Feels like more alcohol is here than actually rated. Less than mediocre.

Draft @ Leprechaun Irish Pub, Bielefeld. Clear gold with a good white head. Aroma of malts and grains. Taste of grains, malts, some bread and mild hints of lemons. Moderate bitterness. Medium carbonation. Your standard Lager fare but fairly enjoyable.

Not bad for a pale lager, nothing much going on aroma wise, typical adjuncty flavor. Not a great beer.

500ml can from Scotmid. Pours clear gold, big white head. Aromas of light grain, lemon, metal. Taste is more of the same. Astringent bitter finish. Not drinking that again.

Sampled on draft at Pipers this beer poured a dark amber color with a large creamy-fluffy white head that lingered forever and left incredible lacing. The aroma was faintly tangy and sour with hints of citrus and bread. The flavor was tangy and sour with some citrus, a bit of bread and a touch of perfume. Short finish. Medium body. Meh.

Keg and can. Clear golden body with a thick white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of pale malt, minerals and a hint of sweetcorn. Flavour is exactly the same as the aroma - it’s not inoffensive, but there’s just nothing to it. Thin body with a watery texture. Light fizz. Overall, this is just a standard macro-brewed lager. The only real plus is that it’s Scottish, which is why (most of the time) I’d choose it over the equally bland usual suspects such as Stella Artois, Fosters and Peroni. I still maintain it’s the best looking lagers out there.
