Beck's (bottle)

I am like most 22 year olds quite fond of alcohol and regularly go out with friends to pubs and clubs in my local town of Taunton. You may have read from some of my reviews that I like to drink a wide range of alcoholic drinks and like to try new drinks all the time. I'm no alcoholic though. Becks is in my opinion one of the most well known lagers around and comes in bottle form. It is a German lager and many of you might be suprised that it dates right back to 1873. It's 5.0 percent alcohol content makes it one of the stronger lagers of it's kind. The international premium pilsner lager is available in 120 countries around the world. It is true ...  Read the complete review

OK, so I'm sat here feeling creative yet uninspired. What to write an opinion about? And then I look at the bottle in my hand and think - "Beck's, yes, I'll write about Beck's". Not David Beckham you understand. I know naff all about David Beckham other than he's a footballer often sporting silly hair and a dress with a wife who sings, supposedly. No, I'm talking about the thoroughly more German Beck's - the frequently overpriced bottled lager. Now actually, come to think of it, the fact it's German is important. You see, life is not easy for a consciencious vegan like myself when it comes to having a wee ...  Read the complete review

Anyone who has seen my old profile picture will know that I?m a little bit partial to a bottle of Becks. In fact to be perfectly honest it?s one of the only bottled beers I do actually like. Recently I have started seeing it on tap, but with it being so popular it is hardly ever in stock so I stick to drinking it by the bottle or three. Well first off a little bit of history behind this fine tasting beer, first brewed in Bremen, Germany in 1874, Becks has become Germany?s leading beer export. Sold in over 120 Countries, Becks is readily available to you almost anywhere you go. I?m sure you will have noticed that almost every pub chain in this country stocks ...  Read the complete review

Nothing better than a cold beer to wash away the day's worries! Last night my worries were well and truly washed away! So you know Becks is a quality beer if I still want to review it with a lingering hangover!! HISTORY ******* Becks has been brewed since 1873 when a brewer Heinrich Becks and a couple of his mates decided to set up a brewery. It was only a year later that the pilsner won its first award for supreme quality. It remained with the Germans until 1886 when it was first exported. Despite breif interludes due to world wars, the public of up to 120 countries have been able to enjoy the clear, crisp and distinctive taste of one of ...  Read the complete review

Officially a German Pale Lager, usually sold in slim green bottles (although is can be found in cans). It is just over 5% Alcohol By Volume, and the price varies by so much there is no point quoting. Try supermarkets for the best deals. To drink, I am not too sure of the modern etiquette, but I prefer drinking it out of the bottle. I also consider it sacrilege to add "Foreign Bodies" like Blackcurrant juice or Lime! This brew is crisp, light, fizzy but not too gassy. The top is a Crown cork which requires a good old fashioned bottle opener. I can recommend this without question. Becks do other beers, including Vier and an Alcohol free brew, just ...  Read the complete review
