In a slow cooked stew! Found a can I think was won at some village fête or other, and sseemed like a good idea to use it for cooking.

Will I die?

Heard it called "electric milk" many years ago, always makes me chuckle

Dog's bad enough on it's own! I once had 7 bottles while camping near Keswick & it gave me hallucinations.

I think he's been living a lie, probably fast asleep in a pool of his own urine, having pished his grotty designer, cross dressing, Catherine Hamnett joggers.

Amusingly in my local pretentious, overpriced bottle shop in Western Australia, Special Brew is revered as a classy import:

"A very strong, dark lager. First brewed in 1950 to commemorate a visit to Denmark by Winston Churchill."

Not vile gut rot favoured by tramps at all.

At university we used to mix it with Diamond White to create super strength Snakebite to get the night off to a flyer.

We used to do this, and then add port instead of blacks, they were messy nights...

Used to do the super strength snakebite too, you could see it congeal in the glass leaving a layer of sediment in the bottom of the glass, proper loopy juice.

Turbo snakebites remind me of Turbo Diesels - bottle of K and a bottle of Becks in a glass.

That's how we rolled in rural Essex, shortly before falling asleep in a barn / an antique dealer's driveway / a WW2 airfield bomb shelter / Lovejoy's Morris convertible / Keef Flint's Ma's doorway.

I actually like Special Brew (Occasionally). Couple of cans, ice cold, served in a tumbler. Dunno, it's like drinking lagery wine or something 🙂
