Clearly nobody told the makers of this boggin' concoction though, a proud 'blend of mature British wine and fine whisky.'Įven the idea is stinking enough, but can you imagine the quality of whisky and wine that ends up in the same bottle and punted for less than the price of ten fags? Boak. 'Never mix the grape and the grain' It's one of the most basic rules of bevvying. The problem is, unless you've tanned someone's parent's drinks cabinet, you had to make do with whatever your meagre funds could buy and that meant you were going to be drinking the cheapest (but strongest) booze in the offy.

The inside of this house proves you can never judge a book by its cover.So, we've taken a trip down memory lane and looked back at the iconic bevvy of Glasgow's youth. That pint follows some early (and sometimes ill-advised) experiments with bevvy, usually with your pals, at someone's empty or hidden away in a park as far away from a responsible adult (and the polis) as possible. It had us thinking back to those other memorable, heady days when we were first introduced to alcohol.īecause let's face it - when your 18th roll around, that 'first pint with your dad in the pub' is almost never your first drink. Most of us have come across the tonic wine at some point in our life.even if it does have a bit of a mixed reputation. If you haven't already heard.today is World Buckfast Day.
