Light and Bitter

When I used to serve the barrow boys of Peckham they either drank this or halves of Hofmeister.

I'm indebted to the pretty terrible Only Fools and Horses prequel last night for reminding me of this and of what a great drink light and bitter used to be. In the summer we used to switch to light and lager, which shouldn't work but did. Has anyone seen a bottle of Courage Light Ale in recent memory?



All together now:

"We've got some half-priced cracked ice
And miles and mile of carpet tiles,
TVs, deep freeze and David Bowie LPs,
Pool games, gold chains and wossnames
And at a push some Trevor Francis tracksuits
From a mush in Shepherd's Bush..."
