Coors light . 5gr per pint

Get over to Dublin for a long weekend and get on the bulmers light or Coors light . Have a blasht

Way to strong that stuff . Would give you a hangover while drinking it

Coors light is ok and is 4.6% Magners /Bulmers is good as well and is the same strength as original . Just low carbs in both , and before I was diagnosed I drank magners a lot . Not much difference in the taste . The reason they don’t sell it in the UK is prob because the pubs are owned by the...
