Asda Super

8.5%, 4 440ml Cans £4.00 From Your Local Asda

The Can Says: "Super Strong Lager"

Rortise says: Super strong? possibly compared to run of the mill everyday lagers but not compared to class contenders such as Tennents or Special brew. The can quite simply looks appalling and the unicorn reminds us of Kaliber, which is not a good thing. The design of the can looks dated and what little info there is, is located along the side making it difficult to read. At least the ring pull opened with a satisfying click.

The taste wasn't much better than the can design as it tasted vaguely of soap. 4.2 units per can is still pretty hefty though and is nothing to be sniffed at as four cans of this will get anybody fairly to extremely pissed. However it would be very hard to drink four cans of this. There really isn't much to say about this apart from it doesn't taste very nice. Sorry Asda.

In Conclusion: This brew looks bad and tastes bad and its only saving grace is its availability and price. Strange that for one so available and cheap it goes down so badly in the tramp community. Compared to its chief rival Tesco it falls abysmally short. Buy Tesco Super instead. This reminds me of Kaliber and that is what I would prefer to drink and so Asda Super Strong is awarded 2/10
