    Not really, not more than any other of the beers.

    Infact any beer leaves me with a mouth like Gandhi's sandle the next day.:p
    And that's why I don't drink beer. I'd rather not have sandle mouth, thank you very much :p

    Tuborg is just low alcohol crap., Its water with 4% alochol added. Yuch. Tuborg and 7UP is just kids shandy!

    Look at all the moneybags here with their brands name beers. Tesco Lager is where its really at, so good they dont need to mess around with fancy packiaging or branding

    Laid out 4 cans beer last night and a bottle. Cans Heineken, Tuborg, Dutch Gold, Bavaria and bottle Bud. ****iest beer was Bud followed by Tuborg which tastes same. Bavaria good but hard pressed for difference between Dutch Gold and Heineken.......incredible and unbelievable!

    you're talking out your arse, Bud tastes nothing like Tuborg. Tuborg has much more of a taste off it.

    No great surprise. The only difference between Heineken, Carlsberg and Dutch Gold and the rest of the boring lagers is marketing. They are all equally shit so you may as well have the cheapest one.

    I wont hear a bad word said against Dutch Gold. It played a vital role in my development as a human being in my teenage years and i will be forever grateful of this esteemed drink.

    Have to say, been a student all my life and even I avoid the stuff when I can .... Bav is so much nicer or the auld Stella when its on offer... Carlsburg at a euro a can was great too............ Cheaper than Coca Cola!!!!

    Bavaria is quite nice but back in my day Dutch Gold was the only real beer option in the 6 for £5 bracket. I used to go without lunch most days just to have money for 6 dutch and 10 smokes :D

    Dutch Gold is the bomb an anyone who says otherwise is just hating. I suppose haters gonna hate.

    I'd drink it all day and all night. Pure quality and 6 cans for €6.50. Sure you'd be mad to leave it behind you.

    Used to love the scallops and the chip buttys! Closed now isn't it?

    The key to drinking Dutch Gold is to leave about a 6th of the can. The last swig is the one that turns your stomach.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10 Basher Ned


    Never heard of Hoffmans so asked my Dad. He says it was low alcohol beer passed off as cheap heineken in pubs in 70's ! Dont think its sold nowadays ?

    Tuborg is tasteless and is mainly water with little alcohol. Tis no wonder your pub can sell it so cheap. Tuborg, Steiger, Hoffmans ....... little difference only the decades have changed!

    Dutch Gold is bog water.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 432 ✭✭Kinky Slinky


    Dutch gold is so fresh ... straight from the urinal

    How anyone can drink this muck bewilders me. And it's not even that cheap any more . I think there was a bit of a stigma attached to it when I was younger "Dutchin' it up tonight" . It taste like stale beer combined with essence of fag butts

    I drank Dutch Gold in the school days. Tried Tuborg once, tasted alright but the hangover the next day was savage. Actually, started to come on after 5 cans during the drinking as far as I remember. Never again. I always preferred the Dutch to Bavaria. Had some awful experiences with Tennents, and Castlemaine was staple for a while before the offie switched to having Dutch as their €1 beer. Bless that day, Castlemaine is muck. Stella used to be €10 for 10 bottles, wasn't worth it though. Awful stuff.

    Now, I'm a classy lady and go for the Karpackie or Amstel. Mix it up with a bit of wine if I've nothing needing doing the next day. On special occasions however, I'll sample a delectable 1664, Blue Moon, assorted ales and wheat beers. Gotta keep it classy.
